The Digital Strategy of the NBA
Melissa Rosenthal Brenner, NBA Vice President of Marketing
“Our mission for All-Star is the same as our goal every day of the year,
which is to enhance our fans' engagement and enjoyment of the game.
And that's really what social media is for us. It's a way for fans to interact
with each other on a global basis. We look at everything from trending
topics to individual post engagement on Facebook, as well the volume and
sentiment of mentions across all platforms. We'll put out a pretty robust
analysis post All-Star on volume, sentiment, as well as key tweets or
Facebook status updates that really tell the story of what fans feel about
our game and feel about the event itself.”
