Competitor AssessmentName SM Profile Strengths Weaknesse
sMoe’s IG: moessouthwestgrill High content
volume, relatively high engagement rate.
Relatively low follower count
Taco Bell TW: tacobell Extremely high follower count, frequent posts with all kinds of media.
Low engagement rate --- most glaring part is the very low amount of retweets
Baja Fresh FB: bajafresh Well-connected with other networks, frequent deals and pictures shared.
VERY few engagements, almost no shares or comments. No interactions with users either
Competitor Assessment Summary• Each competitor has either a high follower count
and low engagement rate, or a low follower count and high engagement rate. None of them seem to get many shares or retweets, and Baja Fresh has a glaring weakness when it comes to customer interactions.
Social Media Objectives• It’s no secret that the E-Coli crisis has caused us
to lose a considerable amount of consumer trust. Our main social media goals for 2016 should be to increase engagement rates (primarily shares and retweets) by creating more diverse (and hopefully viral) content.
• Additionally, by increasing shares and retweets, our follower counts should increase accordingly and thus our total conversions.
Some Specific Objectives:1. Increase shares and retweets by 30% in 6
months by:1. More native videos on Facebook2. More diverse/multimedia content on Twitter
2. Increase follower count on FB, IG & TW by 10% in 6 months
3. Increase total conversions by 10% in 6 months
