HELLO /Still with me?
• 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

HI THERE /Please don’t leave …
•

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

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?

conduct more in-depth analysis of owned social media assets

Dealing with the
“ugly”


53

Facebook pages have empowered consumers:

•

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.


54


55

Good news!

•

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.


56

First things first: Don’t hide
• Doing nothing is the worst thing you can do
• Consumers want acknowledgment
• The community is always watching


57

Accept they have chosen this Channel:
• 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.


58

Q3 – WHO IS THE CHIEFT OF CUSTOMER SERVICE AT EE?

Move quickly:
•

Consumers communicate via Facebook because they want fast
service and a speedy resolution.

•

They want to apply some very public pressure.


59

Accept responsibility and listen:

Like all good customer service it is about addressing needs. If there
has been a problem, it's important that the brand take responsibility.


60

Be personable and don’t take it personally:
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.


61

Anticipate problems and plan ahead:

•

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.


62

In conclusion:

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.


63

You will be rewarded:

Summary


65

Summary /Let measurement lead strategy

• Don’t just look at likes

• Take the time to get to know your community

• Be nice!
