Social Marketing Failures – Case Studies

AAA Media Marketing is a powerful tool, but it is difficult to control. In this article he has a couple of recent cases in which social marketing has failed or gone wrong.


The case of Wal-Mart

In August 2007, Wal-Mart started its own Facebook profile, for students. The objective was to stimulate the consumer behavior of students in the chambers of their students. After a few weeks of the initial target of the "Wal-Mart Roommate Style Match 'was forgotten far.

Visitors room decoration page Wal-Mart can leave comments, a function receiving praise tool for decorating, or suggestions in improving the worst. Wal-Mart will probably not be expected to complete their target = "_blank" title = "Facebook"> Facebook wall full of critically low wages, aversion to trade unions and unhealthy competition practices.

Marketing should take into account when offered customers the opportunity to express their opinion. You can have many satisfied customers, but when you expect a small group of terrorists to Mark Rein vent to his frustration for everyone to see, you may want to think twice before opening a brand page on a social networking site.

One of the visitors said Wal-Mart the biggest mistake was to a "wall" in your profile.


Wal-Mart – The second attempt

Filled with the experience of last season in a new social marketing effort has been made. Wal-Mart has announced the launch of a marketing campaign Social, which allows users to review the content of your site.

A social networking site launched for children on the site of Wal-Mart called "The Hub". As that happened, the parents have been informed of each new record is not very "cool" for kids, but is great for parents. All content created by others to third, while social networks come together to express the way you want. Next of that there were no options for PM or mail each other. Communication is a possibility provided the basis for a social networking site.

Marketing should be aware that only one stage of child protection is the best we can do to protect children while building a popular social network. People need to control and have the ability to allow two-way conversation to flow without being the only talk.


The photo contest for Molson

In November 2007, Molson has pulled the plug its photo contest on Facebook. online marketing campaign for Molson, where students are encouraged to post pictures party on campus themselves, has been "misinterpreted" as promoting reckless consumption.

"We need to communicate with our consumers, because that's where our consumers communicate. We must ensure that we are on track in this cause, "the company said.

The Sellers must be more subtle than Molson in trying to capture the attention of users. The risk is always that the seller may lose control of their brand. Molson is entering uncharted territory and stepped over the line of acceptability of his campaign Facebook.


Ford Focus 2008
Fuzzy?

In October 2007, online ads were seen on a man who yells, moves and behaves like a lion. "The Articles false news were as follows: "The lion man escapes from maximum security-University Research Centre."

Relationship between "The Lion-Man" and the Ford Focus remains to be discovered by the general public. The virus is not because it was too difficult to understand what that was. It also seems to have no end – no reward. No events to clear call to action, and not "go buy this", nothing.

A great lost money that ended in an ad that looks more like a joke rather than a viral campaign. Ford attempted execution on a Facebook page with the Lion "Tanzania-Man" came to have 0 registered users.


Titleist golf fiction

Titleist is a manufacturer of the largest golf has created a site for a golfer of fiction and deferred using formats such as television advertising during golf tournaments, the most important.

offline marketing campaign in line can sometimes work, but it is much easier and less expensive things online promotion. Although the site is not really so bad, there is no call action for people to share the content or any incentive for them to download music and videos that the site will be. People seem to forget too easily that good content simply does not go viral – great content can and often. The videos on the site are good, but not much.

Titleist Marketing should have considered ways to promote your product online through social networks where it might get their attention and more traffic video website. Do not waste big money on television advertising if it has no place to save Web.

I have some examples I have from my own memory, however none of the brands involved are large enough for this case study, so I'm looking for ideally a household name. At the same time, if someone has any suggestions on companies that are shining examples of how social media should be done, then this will also benefit.

Burberry appeal to the sense of fashion "chav" is an example of sociological prole drift, where a high-end product begins to be consumed in a mass low socio-economic development. Burberry argued that the association with the popular sense of fashion "chav" is related to counterfeit versions clothing. "They are yesterday's news," said Stacey Cartwright, chief executive of Burberry. "It was mostly false accounts, and Great Britain for less than 10% of our sales anyway. "The company has taken several steps to stand out from the stereotype. Cease production of his cap baseball with the brand in 2004 and has reduced the use of its senior designer brand / Plaid so now appears that the interior trim and other Clothes positions very low profile.

We had to remove the vehicle Burberry when threatened proceedings for breach of copyright. The supermarket chain Asda has attempted to trademark the word "chav" Candy for a new line. A spokeswoman said: "With slogans from characters in shows such as Little Britain and Catherine Tate Show providing us with slang with more contemporary Whatever our sweets – now nicknamed chav hearts – have become very popular among children and adults. We believe it is necessary to give a little respect and decided to make our candy. "# Http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chav Commercial_effect
