When social media emerged, they pushed all the rules of traditional marketing
Facebook is the best example because Brand marketing uses a lot of social medias and particulary Facebook, for two reasons:
- Facebook allows consumers to identify, communicate, share directly with brands.
- Facebook also allows any consumer to express an affinity, experience with a product of a certain brand.
The creation of Facebook pages for brands is increasing. In fact, this action allows to have an impressive impact on the market.
However, after a study by Harvard Business Review 12 percent of companies use social media and only 7 percent have plans to integrate them. With a strong evolution of social media, companies had to adapt and change the rules of traditional marketing. Indeed, any consumer has freedom of expression and can give a positive or negative image of a product. The impact of its consumers can lead brands to refocus on sub-optimal strategy.

A research proved that friends of Fan represent an important audience
For instance, for the top 100 brand pages, 34 friends of fan can be reached for every fan
Friends of fans represent an audience bigger than the fan base.
Marketers need to reach friend of fan for many reasons (brand building or increasing consumption).
Brands can also take advantage of these users’ social proximity to Fans to deliver stories about those Fans’ interest and engagement with their brand.
Reaching Consumers at Scale with Branded Content
Most of the time, we attach less importance to social medias than other media channels that deliver branded content at scale. A research shows that in certain cases it could warrant such consideration given its ability to deliver impressions comparable with that of other digital ad campaigns. Most marketers would agree that while media is bought and sold on an impression basis, their true goal is to reach people – particulary those in their target demographic.
Social Media Reach, Frequency & GRPs
We should attach more importance to social medias, given its ability to deliver impressions comparable with other digital ad campaigns. Facebook provides the opportunity to deliver brand impressions with social context.
Measuring the impact of these brand impressions enables brands to realize the value of social media as an integral component of the marketing –mix. Social media brand impressions must be quantified and translated into traditional media planning variables.

Facebook Offers Global Marketing Channel for Brands
The most common questions that arise in evaluating social media efforts are “What is a Fan worth?” and “What is the return on my social media investment?” Answering such queries must begin with quantifying the value of a Fan, which we might consider in the following ways:
- Increasing engagement and loyalty among Fans
- Generating incremental purchases among Fans
- Positively influencing Friends of Fans
