increase sales (example: http://go.nike.com/Flyknit_Lunar2) invites you to feel the essence of the product.
Branding: awareness + user engagement – many fans
commenting (fanship & endorsement)
Makes the brand live without going though direct
advertisement.
Infotainment: majorly communicated through videos and
endorsing celebrities – entertains the fan base and favors viral
marketing.
Brand data output - comments’ categories

Customer care comments dwarfs the rest:
Nike is very responsive and attentive to customer concerns.
Customer satisfaction, to retain customers – cheaper than
seeking new customers!
Branding:
Entertains customers and feeds the conversation between
users.
Fans data output - posts’ categories

The conversation between users:
Fans are very engaged. They like to post pictures of their
performances. An opportunity for Nike to make their facebook
live and let consumers interact between each other.
Info request:
For product, events and application inquiries. Always lively.
Fanship:
Very high whereas claims and complaints are fairly low but still
have to be managed with great care to prevent any escalation
to a crisis.
Fans data output - comments’ categories

Notice the same trend as in the fan’s posts – high fanship, conversation between users and
information request.
Again, the numbers of claims stay fairly low.
Data output - Response nature and engagement
The users are interested in what the brand posts
The community is active as it is a sport community around a brand
Users are active between each other
The chart is what we expected for a page like Nike Running France because they support the brand and talk about it. Moreover, there is much
conversations between users because they share their goals.
There is not many claims and complaints as the products are generally
of good quality and innovative. Moreover, the Nike + users are very
proud of their community and like to share the innovations of their brand.

Posts from page are much more engaging than posts from users.
