Since they launched branded page on June,
their Facebook marketing has been doing okay
for 4months.
In previous 4months,
They communicated with every consumers with replying back one by one.
But, when comments on a post increase more than 10, the manager just likes
the fans’ comment with no reply
Usually, consumers’ likes rate 2digits per one post
Usually post as a format of text with Photo (of own product or historical person)
The manager post in formal language tone and classic and gentlemen manner.
But, kind and nice tone when comment back

Again, this post is about giving freebie event by
Good point is that the bar ‘MIXOLOGY’ is being
managed under Bacardi, so the page manager can
make consumers drink own product and provide
experiencing the own bar
→why?
Promotional Freebie event
Chance to expensive drink for free
Chance to visit Bar in Chengdamdong where
people usually venture when have enough

This post is also promotional post on
Bacardi’s newsfeed.
When consumers click like, tag more friends
and share, Bacardi gives free-Bacardi
muddler(apparatus when making cocktail)
Good point is that the page manager is doing
one of those two-bird-one-stone solutions
through consumers as another media to carry
the news and giving own branded muddler
too.
→why?
People like freebie
As fans are consumer of alcohol or
cocktail, having cocktail muddler will give
them more joy
Consumers are also
killing two birds with one stone by having
chance to taste new launched product and get
muddler

설명
→why?
This post tries to communicate in interactive and
personal way with consumers
→But why?
Even the post has keywords, it is too short to
communicate with consumers in interactive and
personal way
Message is confusing and lack with what to ‘why
not?’
Last sentence may seem to too smart-aleck

설명
→why?
This post tries to communicate in interactive way
with fans
→But why?
Too short message to communicate
Too lack to empathy with fans by their product.
So more stories being with Superior product are
required

situationanalysis competitor analysis SWOT recommendation ffff
Least popular Post(based on likes comments/shared)
This post tries to communicate in interactive and
informational way
Providing music information that might fit well when
enjoying Bacardi
→But why?
The manager posted ONLY information about
the music, artist and song
Post about music usually contain direct-linked
playing contents or video clip to listen. BUT,
Bacardi manager didn’t insight the lazy fans
Photograph doesn’t provide how the artist play
or song sounds like. So It is obvious that most
consumers don’t consume no-sound music
content by like or comment

The Best Posts
Were mostly, Exchange relationship posts
Jager Party Promotion Post was online promotion event
by encouraging fans to like and share
Jager Camping Promotion Post was
online promotion too.
Providing camping boxes of
Jagermeister for camping to group
of Jager fans who comment and
share the post
→why?
First of all, It is freebie event and
their value is expensive actually
Contents are what customers can
enjoy with Jagermeister

The Worst Posts
Post about disclosure of online free products
They posted short and brief about free products (Computer screen saver
or calender) on their official website with kindly linked address too.
→why?
Like other pages’ fans, the consumers of Jagermeister might be lazy to link into
the webpage and download.
Or the page’s consumers are more interested in brand’s product or freebie
events
Post about Jagemeister on publicity
They used to post informations as second-hand format
for example, webpages.
→why?
Because people or even fans, usually are lazy to
click and move to original page to read long
description.
They should posted in direct with summary of the
news to their consumers

Good and Bad at same time
Live video clip of making hand-made candle
in own shot glass from the Jagermeister
offline promotion club event
→why?
Video vlip was interesting enough
But, fans were not at the club event so they might not
able to feel live contact with the manager
Compared to the contents of the video, the group of
fans wer not emotional group about candle
19. situation analysis competitor analysis

SWOT recommendation
Similarity
Difference
Because Bacardi and Jagermeister were
alcohol brands, they have ingredients of
product or recipes of cocktails based on
own product
While Bacardi has classical and gentle
concept and images,
Jagermeister manged in young, fresh,
challenge and active concept and images

Unexpected posts found
Unexpected posts were all written by other. From that, I find out customers
and fans of Starbucks had Strong loyalty loop that they post their every single
personal stories related Starbucks on official page. 3/5 were personal stories
and others were complain or question
Frequent posts about events/freebie promotion or notification of official
discount or coupon promotion

The Best Posts
• Posts about Starbucks’ Official
Promotion called ‘happy Hour’ which
you can buy any beverage at half price.
Which is exchange relationship
between fan and the brand on Page
→why?
First of all, they are about half price
coupon on spending expensive
money to drink a cup of coffee.
Customers can save their money
instead they love Starbucks
The coupon can be used every
Starbucks store in Korea

The Least Posts
• Posts that attempt to communicate
fans in interactive and personally
• Announcing posts about event winners
→why?
Too simple message to encourage
fans disclose their feeling and talk in
personal mood
Unless customers won the
promotional event, they are only
interested in stories related the
themselves
25. situation analysis competitor analysis
situation analysis competitor analysis SWOT recommendation ffff
SWOT recommendation
Similarity
Informational posts about when new
product or beverage launch.
Or informational posts about
ingredients and recipe of the drinks
Interactive posts to listen consumers’
opinion on their drink product
Difference
Even the popular target age group is same,
Starbucks posts written in friendly and cute
tone and Warm and feminine manner
When they talks about recipe of beverage to
DIY, Starbucks’ posts have pictured process
and can feel friendly that it seems written by
manager’s personal trial while Bacardi post
just have text recipe with finished cocktail
photo
27. situation analysis competitor analysis
Strength
Brand power with 150years of long
and heavy history
Premium Rum
Product and Brand value is high
Manish image
Tons of contents or stories are available
with products and history
High engagement on freebie event
Opportunity
spirituous liquor brands are on trend
Brand Facebook pages get fans easliy
when there is promotional Events
Unexplored Facebook users are yet
opened media
Younger age group
Power of eWOM
SWOT
recommendation
Weakness
Too classic and gentlemen tone and manner
Writing tone of posting and replying is
different
Posts feel like news report to customer
Even the page is Korea account, most
images are Western style
Introduction stage of PLC as branded page
on Facebook=low arareness
Most engaged age group is silent users
Threat
Awareness of Bacardi as alcohol Brand
Overseas spirituous liquor brands have
Facebook pages too
Not only branded but also personal
Facebook pages are overflowing = too
many competitors
30. situation analysis competitor analysis SWOT
recommendation
Bacardi Korea Facebook Page posts should managed in :
Personal
Even if stories are made up, post such a long personal story or diary
(about own products)
All of products should contain story
Personal recommendations to enjoy Bacardi
Posts and comment must keep same communicating tone (gentle
man or kind woman) and be more friendly
Informative
Introduction with pictures of the Place of where Bacardi created
More active kinds of media based on sorts of text
Ex)post talking about music should contain youtube or streaming player
or direct video clip
Behind stories of historical facts or products
All the recipe of cocktail should include step-by-step in visualized media
News links should contain summary and key words
31. situation analysis competitor analysis SWOT
recommendation
Bacardi Korea Facebook Page posts should managed in :
Interactive
Use photos of Koreans or have Korean atmosphere
Big and wide enough announcement to fully fill the screen of page
when new product launch or offline event start
Mentioning fans’ name clearly when there are winners of event
Ask more to consumers and reply to their opinion on that day
Promotional
Launch an official offline promotion that hold once a year through
page
Seasonal Promotions related Bacardi
Event about Small number of people to experience Bacardi liquor and
the own bar ’MIXOLOGY’
Enlarge target group to young people who enjoy spirituous alcohol in
bar or club
Create events about certain cocktail after posting the recipe
