HELLO /Still with me?
© 2013 Brandwatch | www.brandwatch.com
• Board members like likes, try to convince them otherwise
• Most like numbers go up anyway
• Important to give them more context
• Benchmark against yourself and your competitors
• Get to the wider meaning behind the numbers
• Reporting on likes (or followers etc) alone is incredibly limiting

• Measure what’s happening on your channels
• One active fan is better than one million inactive ones
• Don’t think of 1m likes, but think of 10,000 advocates or 1000 customers
• The average person has 140 friends. In just 4 generations, that network is over 2 million people.
• Up to 8x cheaper to retain a customer than attain a new one.
• WOM and referrals are the strongest type of lead

Engagement
QUESTION /Want that iPad?
• BrewDog got some pretty good engagement on their posts. Carlsberg didn’t.
• If Carlsberg engaged their fans at the same % rate that BrewDog did, how many likes could they expect on their posts?

Dealing with the “ugly”
54
Facebook pages have empowered consumers:
© 2013 Brandwatch | www.brandwatch.com
• Social media accelerates and democratizes communication with brands.
• Consumers have a much loader voice & unfortunately are more likely to complain than praise.
• The visibility and sharable nature of that complaint on your channel obviously presents a tricky and potentially embarrassing problem.
55© 2013 Brandwatch | www.brandwatch.com
56
Good news!
© 2012 Brandwatch | www.brandwatch.com
• There is considerable upside if you can figure out how to tackle this issue.
• Being responsive and resolving the issue, however, can create trust and a loyal customer.
First things first: Don’t hide
© 2013 Brandwatch | www.brandwatch.com 57
• Doing nothing is the worst thing you can do
• Consumers want acknowledgment
• The community is always watching
58
Accept they have chosen this Channel:
© 2013 Brandwatch | www.brandwatch.com
• There is a reason they chose to get in touch on Facebook (empowering,
convenient, real time and it works!)
• Have tried and failed to raise their issue elsewhere, so try to avoid redirecting if possible.
• Do privately message them however.
59
Move quickly:
© 2013 Brandwatch | www.brandwatch.com
• Consumers communicate via Facebook because they want fast service and a speedy resolution.
• They want to apply some very public pressure.
Q3 – WHO IS THE CHIEFT OF CUSTOMER SERVICE AT EE?
60
Accept responsibility and listen:
© 2012 Brandwatch | www.brandwatch.com
Like all good customer service it is about addressing needs. If there has been a problem, it's important that the brand take responsibility.
61
Be personable and don’t take it personally:
© 2013 Brandwatch | www.brandwatch.com
Be generous and say thank you:
You have the customer's name, use it. Let them know they're talking to a real person, not a faceless corporation.
62
Anticipate problems and plan ahead:
© 2013 Brandwatch | www.brandwatch.com
• You know your business and your consumer.
• You already know what will drive complaints, plan objectively to tackle them ahead of time.
• Give yourself and your team the right tools, set the appropriate policies and processes for handling each situation.
• Set standards and stick to them.
63
In conclusion:
© 2013 Brandwatch | www.brandwatch.com
It is inevitable that your consumers will complain on your Facebook page.
Don’t panic.
Act quickly, make sure you fully understand their complaint, accept responsibility when it's your fault, and be generous when you solve their problem.
64
You will be rewarded:
