Amazon.com Inc.’s Facebook page has 26226415 likes and average 1000+ likes and 400+
comments on single post, visitors also share their posts and queries and complaints
answered by them and their page is far from the most conversational page on the social
network. While some retailers post about the news, or ask random questions to spark a
dialogue, Amazon’s posts almost exclusively are promotional. For example, their post
highlighting a Harry Potter box set containing all seven novels, along with the message, “Harry
Potter fans, have you checked this out?”
On Twitter, its tweets take a similar tack exemplified by its Black Friday tweet, “Don't be
a #DeadBattery Up to 65% off Lenmar batteries & cases.”
But even though Amazon’s social media activity is rather promotional, it still manages to attract
an average of 450+ comments per Facebook post. It also gets an average of 2K+ Likes per
post. On Twitter, having 2.1M follower it averages 150 retweet and 100+ favorite per post. On
LinkedIn having 1,361,272 followers 250+ likes and 20 comments while on Google+
654938 followers 200+ likes and 50+ comments their Instagram account have 222k
followers and average 2K likes and 13-14 comments and on YouTube Subscribers:
7,495 Videos: 243 Average views: 30K+
Amazon decided to leverage the hottest messaging app of 2014 around Black Friday
and the holiday shopping season by sending out daily deals via Snapchat that
disappeared in 10 seconds. This campaign was a great effort to boost Amazon’s mobile
sales and improve on last year’s numbers, when Amazon customers ordered more than
five toys per second from a mobile device between Thanksgiving and Christmas.
Using Snapchat for disappearing deals or to announce flash sales is a great use of the
platform and can be replicated by everyone from huge brands to local businesses in
2015.

Incorporated in 2012, Daraz.pk is an online shopping portal featuring apparel,
accessories, shoes and beauty products for men and women, as well as a wide variety

Their sale is increasing day by day
Findings
Both Daraz.pk and amazon.com doing good business but what I see on their social
pages is their likes and comments on a single post and peoples making query is
decreased which shows people don’t want to interact with them on social media.
Why these strategies are effective or ineffective we discuss under:
Right Channel
Your organization has a target market. While each individual in your target market has their own
individual personality, wholly they have similar traits, characteristics, and behaviors. With this,
one can surely assume that those within a target market will have similar preferences when it
comes to social networks.
Find out the social networks that your customers are using the most frequently and
engage them in that channel. On some unpopular social media some of your users may
have accounts, but your time and resources could be better spent interacting with this
demographic on Facebook, Twitter or Google+. Example is like amazon.com interacts
with their customers on Snapchat discussed earlier. So, daraz.pk should too follow
these things.
Your focus in social media should not be about increasing the volume of the
relationships that you have, but on improving the quality of these relationships. So
Daraz.pk should focus on building relationships.
It is pretty easy to find and share relevant content within your industry. If you are
constantly pushing products on to your customers, they will almost certainly react in a
negative manner. Remember, they can go to your e-commerce store and see the
products or special offers that you have. Give your followers the quality content that
they are looking on a daily basis. In time they will become engaged, more loyal, and
soon wonder how they ever lived without it. For this Daraz.pk and amazon.com both
should share fashion trends for boys and girls new smartphone applications trending
nowadays etc.
Creating Experience
There has been a recent shift towards organizations creating an entire experience
around your brand. The day where consumers only interact with your business at
various touch-points is gone. This is forgotten too often by many organizations and each
point of contact with the customer is its own experience entirely.
If you can create an experience around your brand, interacting with you becomes much
more than simply buying your products. It is something that your customers grow to
expect. They like interacting with your brand because it fits into their lifestyle and is
familiar to them. Each interaction that you have with a consumer is an opportunity to
positively impact the brand experience.
Use social media to help create this brand experience. It allows you to develop your
brand’s voice and personality and connect with your customers on a much more
personal level. Having a consistent brand experience makes interacting with your
organization hassle-free. This will ensure that customers return, make more purchases,
and become loyal customers. So both daraz.pk and amazon.com should focus on this.
