Gatorade

Pepsi, la celebre azienda produttrice di bevande e della omonima bibita, ha pensato di usare i social network per rilanciare il marchio Gatorade, che da più di tre anni perde terreno nei confronti del rivale Powerade (di proprietà della Coca Cola).

L’azienda ha dato vita ad un team interno (chiamato Mission Control) che si occuperà di monitorare i principali social network per capire la percezione degli utenti sul prodotto. In base a questo verranno poi elaborate strategie di marketing per riportare in alto le vendite.

Sono tantissime le aziende che, negli ultimi anni, si sono rivolte ai social network. Nella maggior parte dei casi con una pagina o un profilo aziendale utile per fare pubblicità a costo zero, ma non sono. Moltissime multinazionali hanno personale specializzato incaricato di monitorare e tenere sotto controllo Twitter, Facebook, YouTube, FriendFeed ed altri portali social estremamente popolari. Il motivo? Scoprire se gli utenti parlano bene o male di un prodotto, se hanno intenzione di acquistarlo o meno, capire se preferiscono prodotti analoghi della concorrenza. Esattamente come vuole fare Pepsi per rilanciare la sua storica bevanda sul mercato.

In tutto questo, ci sono purtroppo numerose aziende che pagano profumatamente persone e blogger per esprimere opinioni positive su un prodotto nei social network, nei blog o nei forum. I navigatori, tendenzialmente, tendono a fidarsi del pareri degli altri utenti, senza sospettare che in realtà l’opinione è stata manipolata ed è tutto tranne che reale.

Esistono anche società specializzate che si offrono (dietro lauto pagamento, logicamente) di ripulire l’immagine delle aziende, eliminando post e commenti negativi su un prodotto o su un marchio specifico.

Inutile dire che queste manovre sono assolutamente contrarie ai principi di libertà ed uguaglianza che vigono in rete. Siamo sicuri, comunque, che nei prossimi anni, i social network diventeranno un punto cruciale per il marketing online, più di quanto non lo siano già adesso.

  10. Write more, thats all I have to say. Literally, it seems as though you relied
    on the video to make your point. You clearly know what youre talking about, why
    throw away your intelligence on just posting videos to your site when you
    could be giving us something enlightening to read?

  11. With havin so much content and articles do you ever run into any issues of plagorism or copyright violation? My website has a lot of
    completely unique content I’ve either created myself or
    outsourced but it looks like a lot of it is popping it up all over the internet without my
    authorization. Do you know any solutions to help stop content from being
    ripped off? I’d definitely appreciate it.

    an email.

  15. I have been browsing on-line greater than three
    hours these days, but I never found any attention-grabbing
    article like yours. It is pretty value enough for me. Personally,
    if all site owners and bloggers made good content as you did,
    the internet will likely be a lot more useful than ever before.

    If you know of any please share. Many thanks!
