Building a robust community on social media can often be an expensive and time-consuming prospect. Targeting, audience profiling, brand tone of voice and conversational planning are all key parts to getting the community right from the get-go.

The core campaign objective was to grow the Facebook and Twitter communities; develop the social media profiles into a key channel for brand messaging and consumer engagement to drive beer sales.
