ANALYSIS
Harley Davidson
1.
Social presence: 10
HD is known to have one of the most active social media programs of any major brand. The brand is present in many platforms
that we considered important and relevant, that is on Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, Flickr, Instagram, LinkedIn, Pinterest and
Google +; anyway, this report will focus on 3 main social networks,
that is on Facebook, twitter and YouTube. Harley Davidson has
literally created a community around the social networks, taking the
customer at the core of the interactions: it’s not only about increase
brand awareness, it’s all about creating a community which allows
users to experience the brand digitally. HD put an equal presence
effort in every social network, showing its engagement in the attempt
to involve every kind of users (targets).
2.
Dialog / user engagement management: 10
Harley Davidson adopts social media in order to engage users in many ways: for example, on Facebook and twitter, it shares
pictures of special HD’s events, quiz to test a user’s brand knowledge, familiarity and loyalty, and videos of brand users
communities. All the content it publishes help to create common meanings around the brand, deliver it’s brand values and
develop a mere special “Harley’s lifestyle”.
Also YouTube is used a lot from users: it’s possible to find any kind of video regarding the brand, from a typical
“ride” to concerts, charity events and stunts with ah Harley motorcycle. All these video are shared on other social
networks and commented from a huge number of users (till 2 million views).
On Twitter, HD has 161.395 followers, 1006 followed and 5873 tweets; on Facebook it has 4.996.358 “likes” and
151.047 people talking about HD, with a rate of engagement equal to 3%. On Twitter, people use several times
hashtags. The engagement on Tweeter is therefore also high: according to hashtracking.com, 249 tweets with
#Harleydavidson were created by users, reaching an audience of 405.711 followers in 36 hours.

All these information are sum up in the following image3:
YouTube (with 51.995 followers) is also an important tool for creating engagement. Through this platform, HD
shares those content that permits to create the typical “freedom and machismo” values.
3.
Sentiment / advocacy management: 9.5
Harley’s Davidsons strategy on social media is very clear and its main objectives are to solidify the existing
communities and engage other Harley’s fans to join this lifestyle. The final goal is to increase sales of motorcycle
and related accessories. Strategies used on Facebook and Twitter are:
!
Post pictures and video that appeal emotionally. Through this kind of content, HD is able to transmit its
freedom and machismo values to the users, reinforcing the engagement and convincing other people to
enter into the brand community.
!
The engagement is also obtained by asking questions (through quiz and other asking forms) in such a way
to make people feel an important part of the brand.
!
Crating weekly - monthly topics (for example “HD fan machine”), which allow people to talk about their
Harley’s experiences. This activity helps HD to understand how people experience the brand and how the
communities are formed (and respectively, the sense of belonging).
It’s important to underline the fact that the majority of comments (in every kind of platform) are positive.
Evidences show clearly that Harley Davidson is a Lovermark, because the brand receives both respect and love
from consumers.
From the analysis of the first 50 comments on both Facebook and Twitter, it can be assessed that there is a high
tendency of positive comments (approximately, FB: 78%, Twitter: 80%), while the negative ones are quiet low
(approximately, FB: 18%, Twitter: 17%). We can clearly observe that in both the platforms the positive and
negative comments have similar tendency: in other words, there is consistency in users’ comments.

Contributors are all the people who tweet with a particular hashtag. Everyone who tweets or re-tweets a message with a particular hashtag is counted as a
contributor.
Timeline deliveries represent the total possible number of times someone could have viewed a particular message. We use the follower count of the original
tweeter and add the followers of any re-tweeters to generate the total number of timeline deliveries for each and every hashtagged tweet.
Reach is the number of unique individuals who received timeline deliveries* of hashtagged messages. Because the same users may receive multiple timeline
deliveries, measuring reach as well as deliveries allows you to better understand the true spread of your message.

Another efficient way to evaluate Harley Davidson’s sentiment is using a special
research tool called “socialmention.com”. From a key research, using as a key word
“Harley Davidson”, we obtained the following results: 39% of strength, that is the
likelihood that your brand has been discussed on social media; 29:1 of sentiment, that is
the ration of mentions that are generally positive to those that are generally negative;
22% passion, that is the measure of the likelihood that individuals talking about your
brand will do so repeatedly; and finally 57% of reach, that is a measure of the range of
influence.
4.
Support/value: 8
The brand offers content regarding their products (e.g.
information
on
new
launches
and
presentation’s
events) but HD is more active in engage community
rather than asking for improvement or complaining.
Despite this lack we can say that HD is always willing to answer customer’s questions about problems or products
development with a high customer care attention. HD asks users opinions about new products and innovation. An
example is this tweet on twitter:
HD then receives answers from which they can understand customers’ preferences and thoughts about new
launches.
5.
Innovation: 9
Although HD is focused on creating a strong sense of community, its first goal is to make feel every costumer
unique. That’s why they give the possibility to their clients to create exclusive pieces for their one-off trips and
experiences. They are the co-producer of the product.
“’Come Together’ is not merely a song in our spot – it’s an anthem for our relationship whit our fans. They are the
heart of everything we do. No one is more emotionally vested in Harley-Davidson than our fans. That’s why we
turn to them”. These words from Mark-Hans Richer, HD Senior Vice President and Chief Marketing Officer
perfectly explain the value that customer represent for HD.
Furthermore this year HD used insights – gathered by the brand during thousands of rides and personal
interactions with customers – to deliver never-before-seen motorcycling enhancements, such as the first original
equipment voice recognition and touchscreen for music, GPS navigation and on-motorcycle phone4.
6.
Harley Davidson online leadership: 9
Harley Davidson leadership on Web 2.0 is very strong due to its level of brand image and to the large and devoted
community around this brand. There are many virtual clubs, blogs and forums by Harley Davidson to keep every
consumer connected to the Harley Davidson family. HD plays a guiding role on social media platforms, strongly
involving customers which remain at the core of HD activities, and always allowing them to comment and
enhance any discussion on the subject of interest, but never participating directly to the debate.

There are plenty of unofficial blogs and forums around the
community even though you can apply on the official website
inserting your profile to become a member of the Harley
Owners Community (hog.com).
7.
Linking value community: 10
This is the latest post of HD on FB wall. HD is very active in engage customer in all the promotions activities. HD
always answers to users, this is an example: “We're glad you were a part of it as well; we fixed your name within
the image and now reads John D.P. Thanks again for sharing!
HD always posts pictures and engage interaction by asking: “Do you have better pictures? Please post them here.
The most published posts by HD and its fans are photos showing people in the road with their motorbike
surrounded by amazing landscape from all over the world.
Everything is related to travels and membership to the brand, HD emphasizes the sense of community and users
are more active in participating to the wide variety of communication campaign. All campaigns are linked together
towards all social media platforms.

Ducati
1.
Social presence: 10
After making some research according to the social presence level of Ducati it is possible to reveal that the brand
is a leading international e-commerce player. Social media is the most important tool for the brand`s promotion.
The brand is presented in most popular social networks such as Facebook, Twitter, Youtube and Instagram.
Moreover, the company has had its own web page www.ducati.com since 2000.
According to the Global Social Media Chart made by Starcount group in 2013,
which identified the most popular Global stars of social media, among 285,002
brands Ducati is No.7282 for its popularity in social media.
Moreover in Automotive Brands Chart made by Starcount group Ducati is No 88
among other 200 automotive brands due to its activeness in social media.
Furthermore Ducati gathers its fans in its Own Social Network with 160,000
registered users. Ducati North America launched a new social media site for fans of
the Italian manufacturer. The new Ducati Community site lets Ducati fans share
pictures, videos and text while connecting with Twitter, Facebook and other social
media networks. Ducati after launching it for North American audience is going to
expand to connect Ducati fans around the world. Ducati Community will also offer
official Ducati news about events, promotions and model upgrading.
In 2011 Ducati launched a new iPhone app for fans to follow the Ducati Moto GP team. The new Ducati Corse
app provides news and information straight from the Moto GP factory located in Bologna, Italy. The app offers
race updates, results and championship standings, profiles on Ducati riders Valentino Rossi and Nicky Hayden,
data on the Desmosedici GP11, an extensive gallery of photographs and additional Ducati-related news. The

In respect to Twittter we can assess that up tp 25th of Novermber 2013 the number
of followers were around 122,000. From the chart below we can indicate an
increase in number of followers of Ducati on Twitter.
The main point of the company`s succes is considered its special strategy toward
its
cusotmer
s.
Ducati
is
a
company that has replaced the words
“marketing” and “customer” with the
words “community” and “fan.” Ducati`s
community of fans is considered to be
as a major asset of the company. Ducati
enhances the “fan experience” through
social networks. It involves fans on a
systematic basis to reinforce the places, the events, and the people that express the Ducati life style and Ducati’s
desired brand image. Company uses specific way to enhance and reward customer engagement. For instance, the
company has created a competition called “Design Your Dream Ducati,” where fans are challenged to interpret
any form of their “Dream Ducati,” by offering artistic as well as technical ideas. A team that includes the CEO, the
chief manager of the Design Department and the Creative Director, selects the best ideas.
3.
Sentiment / advocacy management: 9
Ducati uses social networks to support customer loyalty, at the front-end as well as at the back-end stages to its
product development process. Furthermore on social media its objective is to encourage word of mouth, raise
brand visibility and strengthen brand values. We can underline five main keys of Ducati`s social media strategy:
•
Encourage exclusive fans with videos, images, events
•
Solicit content from followers and share pictures from the
community
•
Don not post too much, stay in a `golden middle`
•
Listen to your networks beyond Facebook, Twitter
•
Respond on time
In order to analyze the positive/ negative opinions of followers about the
brand, there were taken one page of Ducati with 143,350 people, who liked the page and analyzed 100 comments
of followers about the brand. In that case there was revealed that 87% of followers have commented positively,
only 9% of comments has contained negative attitude, and 4% of comments was neutral. In the graph it is
represented the analysis on “Ducati Facebook page” on 100 comments of followers, 20th of November, 2013.
As we have done for Harley Davidson’s analysis, we can evaluate Ducati’s sentiment is using “socialmention.com”.
From a key research, using as a key word “Ducati”, we obtained the following results: 33% of strength, 75:1 of
sentiment, 25% passion, and finally 51% of reach.
!
!

12. !
!
From an overall perspective, taking into account different social networks (brand`s blog, page of the brand`s
community, official webpage, Facebook, Twitter) it can be revealed that peoples` response about Ducati is
positive. From the comments it is understandable that there is huge customer loyalty and good interaction
between the producer and customer.
4.
Support/value: 9
As it was mentioned before, the brand is active on the main social networks such as Facebook, Twitter, Instagram,
Youtube and Flickr, and it offers a wide range of services through them to its customers; it answers to questions,
it asks for reviews, it posts videos about performance and races and many pictures as well. The owners of its
products are able to post significant pictures that cement the brand’s
loyalty and group identity, and that can create a network of brand’s
lovers. Ducati is able to keep its followers always updated with the
latest news about actual and future products, and in general on
everything they may be interested in; that is particularly appreciated,
since taking a look at customers’ ratings on Facebook we could see a
majority of 5/5 stars given to the brand.
In fact it offers an accurate customer service and the chance to
interact directly with the company through a call center and via e-mail,
and it sends feedbacks afterwards, which is important to keep loyal
people who are willing to pay a premium price for these products but
who require also a great service and customer support.
5.
Innovation: 8
In the innovation process, which is based on co-creation, involvement and collaboration, Ducati tries to provide
many brand-user touch points. The brand offers the opportunity to develop a Ducati licensed product or service,
and it allows to apply directly for a job, hiring so not only the best and most motivated minds, but also brand’s
enthusiasts. Ducati allows people to open official sales point/garages or even restaurants, it helps students
providing information for their theses and offering internships.
There are several DOCs (Desmo Owners Clubs) formed by owners of Ducati bikes which increase the feeling of
belongingness and ownership, and which definitely increase the loyalty towards the brand.
On 19th of July 2012 Ducati was purchased by Automobili Lamborghini S.p.A, and the totality of the voting rights
were acquired by Audi AG.In this way the Italian brand has had the chance to get new funds to invest in R&D and
to improve the performance of its bikes, and to strengthen its brand as well as financial solidity, thanks to the well
established reputation of Volkswagen AG, which owns Audi AG.There will be for sure a close collaboration
between these brands to offer high performance bikes to the niche Ducati targets or even to target new
segments.
6.
Leadership: 7
Brand stories are appreciate and shared by people in social media; they also discuss and add personal experiences
and opinions about them. In particular Ducati select these brand stories posted in its site and shared them on
Facebook and Twitter. However the brand doesn’t actively participate to conversations, it just shared new post.
!
!

13. !
!
Often links are connected to Ducati site but also to the
other social network platform especially Twitter and You
Tube, furthermore there are also linked to other site like”
Motociclismo”, a specialized paper of motorbikes.
The brand communication is perceived by most people to
be honest and transparent; however some suspect that
Ducati deletes posts unseemly as it seems strange that
there are few negative comments. Thus, Ducati leadership
in the web is quite strong.
7.
Linking value community: 9
Ducati is very active in engaging customers to its promotions activities. It shares photos, videos and events on its
products but also about the world superbike and other competitions that see Ducati as a protagonist. It gives the
possibility to people to express their opinion and share photos about their motorbike and so on.
Ducati organizes online events such as Ducati Air Bike Challenge in which the participants must create a video.
The winner is rewarded and the video shared within its online community. Everything is connected to the highperformance motorcycles, to the image of brand in the world and to sport competitions. People feel a member of
the community because they share the same spirit of Ducati. With Ducati they feel powerful. In this way users are
very active in participating to the wide variety of communication campaign.
In this sense the brand is a strong social connector between the owners of products and who is simply attract by
this world. Furthermore the promotion campaigns are linked together towards all social media platforms

Honda
1.
Social Presence: 7
Honda Motorcycles has a pretty good presence on the web. They use
the Internet to interact with their customers and increase brand
awareness. They use Facebook, Twitter, YouTube Intagram and
Pinterest in order to advertise their new products in form of pictures
and videos. They integrate all these three social network platforms to
reach their customers. Although they could use Instagram and Pintrest
as these social networking platforms are becoming more popular for
picture and short video sharing.
2.
Dialog/user engagement management: 8
Honda motorcycles use social media to engage users in various forms. On Facebook, they upload pictures and
announce new products. Their level of dialog is more on Facebook as customers can be seen making requests for
new products to reach their local stores and the company replying to these posts. Though, the company’s posts
do not attract much attention, as there are only a few comments and likes to their posts. Fans can also see in
action how these products work before purchase as the company uses its Youtube page to upload “test-drives” of
new products to attract customers. So the fans use the three channels to communicate with the brand (though it
is very low on twitter).
Nevertheless, there is so much space for
improvement as the level of engagement is
still
low,
14,028
talking
about
Honda
Motorcycles as against 732,978 likes which
equals 1.91%.
This is mainly done on Facebook as it can be noted
that they reply directly to most of their customers’
questions and request by commenting on the
comments posted by their customers.
On YouTube (118,178 subscribers – 27,011,123 views), they include celebrities such as Nick Cannon and Maroon5
in their commercials and support these celebrities on tours.
!

15. !
!
Videos of how the production processes of their products are also uploaded to give customers a glimpse of what
goes-on on the inside. But the interaction between the company and the customers is very less on this platform.
Both positive and negative examples of feedbacks are showed below:
3.
Sentiment/advocacy management: 7
Honda Motorcycle’s strategy on social media is clear and its
main objective is to market its products and raise brand
visibility. The only posts seen on their Facebook page is that
showing new products and not interactions with customers (like
asking questions about customer experience) instead, the
customers are the ones who share their experiences and
products owned on the page. There is only more customer
interaction on Twitter as customers posts complaints and the
company replying directly.
As we have done for Harley Davidson’s and Ducati’s analyses, we can evaluate Honda’s
sentiment is using “socialmention.com”. From a key research, using as a key word
“Honda motorcycle”, we obtained the following results: 12% of strength, 40:1 of
sentiment, 37% passion, and finally 31% of reach.
4.
Support/Value: 9
The company offers good information to customers regarding their products (E.g. information on new products,
production processes and information on recycling, etc.). Their social media pages only talk about the brand and
their posts are quite repetitive. In analyzing most of their posts, it can be noted that they respond to most of fans
comments and requests only on twitter and a few on Facebook. These responses are both to negative and
positive comments. SO in negative posts, they try to find out what the problem the customer has.
!
!

16. !
!
5.
Innovation: 7
The innovation process includes the relationship between Honda and its customers. The users give suggestions,
feedbacks and preferences about the different models already in the market. The interaction level between the
users on different social media’s is different. Twitter and Facebook pages have more responses to the queries of
the consumers. This is way of directly contacting with the consumers and getting to know their tastes and
preferences.
6.
Leadership: 6
Brand stories are shared and appreciated by customers/fans
on social media. Customers mainly share their personal
experience or show-off the products that they own and some
videos showing stunts they performed using Honda products.
However, Honda does not actively participate in the
discussions. Most atimes, links are attached to the posts
which leads customers/fans to the company webpages.
Therefore, the company has a strong image on the web.
7.
Linking Value/community: 8
Even though Honda is an active member in the different social media’s they also have an active participation in
initiatives such as environmental conservation, education and traffic safety. They have activities in parts of Central
America, South America, Asia, Middle East, Africa and Europe. They are a company with a global viewpoint which
contributes for the well-being of local communities around the world through their products and technologies.

Analyzing the subjective grades we assigned to the three motorcycle brands we chose, we can unequivocally say
that both Harley Davidson and Ducati have been able to reach a position of Lovermark, with a wide base of loving
customers who are loyal to the brand, who actively participate in the brands’ lives on the main social medias, and
who are willing to pay a premium price to become owners of one motorcycle.
Even if with an honest and discrete final results, we believe that Honda can do much more to involve its customers
and get their attention; this, according to us, may be due by the fact that Ducati and Harley Davidson are mainly
motorcycle companies and have highly characterized the brand, being worldwide know, appreciated and sought,
whilst Honda, even if it is the largest motorcycle manufacturer in the world and builds great motorbikes, is not
able to do that, because it’s a multinational not only focused on the production of motorcycles and doesn’t target
a peculiar nice like the other brands do.
To better understand these results we calculated the
engagement content for each brand on the main and
with the highest amount of follors social media:
Facebook.
We saw that this time not only Honda cannot involve
much the customers, but also Ducati, which posts
interesting but often borrowed from other websites
articles; they both have few comments and likes
compared to the american brand, which has thousands
of them and can always create interesting and involving discussion about several topics.
Harley Davidson is an icon and therefore people who own one of its bikes feel part of a community and go to
meetings eveywhere just to meet other « community members », while Ducati is still a young company which
was also recently bought by an automaker and, even if it has seen lately its sales skyrocketing, has still room for
improvement and to establish its image and reputation all around the world.
Honda has a good reputation and huge sales, though since it doesn’t target a specific nice it cannot create as
much passion and love as Harley Davidson can.
!

18. !
!
On Youtube, both the american and italian brand perform very well, with thousands of followers and hundreds of
videos seen by millions of people; Honda as definitely less followers but certain videos have many views.
Probably, in this case, the customers are interested in few news and they just from time to time check the channel
and are so occasional viewers, whilst Ducati and harley Davidson seem to have more loyal customers who
regurarly check the channel, comment and like the videos.
On Twitter we are along the lines of Facebook and Youtube, with many followers for the italian and american
brand and few for the japanese one.
To conclude, we think that both Harley Davidson and Ducati are doing a good job (which can anyway be
improved), since they are Lovermarks and can well involve customers, while Honda, which is a public multinational
corporation, could dramatically improve its social media strategy, also given the fact that it’s the largest
motorcycle manufacturer in the world and it’s among the best teams in MotoGP.
