Earlier this year Online Circle released the Australian Facebook Performance Report. The report provided insight into the success some organisations are having with their brand Facebook pages.
Strategically, organisations use Facebook to build their fanbase and maximise fan engagement, and as the report shows, some industries are utilising this social media platform more than others. Leading the Facebook marketing revolution, is the FMCG Sector with two of the top industries being from FMCG.
The report claims their success is due to effectively leveraging their promotional expertise from traditional media to online. Through promotional activity, posing questions, and online interactive games, many brands saw substantial fanbase growth during the month of January.
