Main findings
The trend is to open multiple Facebook fanpages
No Facebook pages dedicated to financial content
Just 1 company has a fanpage communicating its employer branding activities
Few examples of fanpages related to CSR or social initiatives
Sports sponsorship pages are the most engaging, but they don’t convey any corporate message
Beyond fans: focus on engagement
Success is not just a matter of number of fans
Effective fanpages are those engaging users on specific issues, topics or project through content designed specifically for the social media environment
The research shows that thematic pages stand out in terms of brand engagement
“All-rounder” company pages are relatively common (a total of 16), but excluding few examples, are less engaging and harder to manage
Content is the king: Barilla CFN
More person, less company approach: BNL Job
