campaign
Deshuai
Yan
This
is a student-concept for a Sheridan Pilon School of Business Digital Marketing
Course.
I create this campaign for BMW
company. My idea is conduct a promotion campaign for customers. We provide
discount for customer. On a special day, we sell all series model cars to
customers. If customers’ relatives or friends has a BMW car, customers will
receive 10% off discount to buy their cars. My audience is someone who already
had a BMW car and middle class and middle-upper class customers.
Poster:
My goals are clear out 2016 BMW car
inventory and provide customers benefits and have good relationship with
customers and find new customers. I think l will launch this campaign on
September because 2017 BMW cars will come on the end of this year. My social
strategy is use internet and public platforms. We use Facebook, Twitter and
Youtube to promote our campaign. We also focus on use advertising, TV and
newspaper to attract customers. We will mention BMW provide to benefits to
customers. BMW won’t care about profit, BMW want appreciate customers for
supporting BMW.

#Blog Post 5 Content Marketing Campaign by Yiran Zhao
The Brand
In this case, I am creating a marketing
campaign for Tesla. This is an upcoming brand that has reached great heights
recently in meeting customer needs in an amazing way.
My Idea
My idea is to create a good marketing
campaign using the You Tube as a good platform to gain potential customers’
attention. The main focus is on the electric Tesla cars that can bring a big
change to the betterment of our environment.
My Audience
My audience are all the people in the
globe with the ability to purchase a Tesla car. The main focus however is on
the You Tube users with great interest on vehicles.
Time of Launch
The best time to launch this campaign is
at the start of December when people are busy celebrating with friends and
families. During this period, people normally buy presents to each other and
this would be a good time to intervene with this incredible product.
Main Goals
The main goal of this campaign is to get
the most subscribers on my You Tube channel which will make the campaign
successful. This is because the more subscribers a channel has, the more views
that one gets hence the sales for this product will rise.
How the Campaign Will Engage the Audience?
The campaign will attract more audience
through advertising the channel in other social media platforms hence more
visitors will be attracted. Marketing campaign is important to the brand
involved and is a great tool to make sales incredibly (Kapferer, 2012).

#Blog Post 3 Mercedes Benz Vs Tesla on YouTube by Yiran Zhao
Kind of Content Posted
On You Tube, the two brands have
established themselves through posting videos of their vehicles hence showing
the incredible features that the respective cars possess. They both post videos
on the customer experience to show how good their products are. The videos
contain both the interiors and the exteriors of the cars.
Frequency of Posts
The frequency of posts for Mercedes Benz
is quite higher compared to that of Tesla. From the respective channels of
these brands, it is evident that Mercedes Benz has a higher rate of posting
compared to Tesla. Three weeks have passed since Tesla posted a video while
Mercedes Benz have posted 2 videos for the last 21 hours.
Most Successful Recent Videos
The most successful recent You Tube video
is a video on User Interaction and Safety. It shows how Mercedes Benz have made
it easier and safer to control their vehicles using a mobile phone. The video
is just a day old but it already has 5,623 views. This video gains much
attention because with the current technology, electronic devices have become
part of our lives and need to be embraced.
On the other hand, Tesla has not been left
behind as far as their marketing on You Tube is concerned. They have managed to
gain 32,386 views form a video they posted a 3 weeks ago. The period is quite
long but the views are incredible which is enough evidence for Tesla’s success
on You Tube. The video is on how Tesla has managed to produce good cars over
time. It gains so many views since many people like to hear of customer experience
before buying a product (Lehtinen, 2015).

#Blog Post 2 Mercedes Benz Vs Tesla on Twitter by Yiran Zhao
Kind of Content Tweeted
Both Mercedes Benz and tesla have
established themselves well in twitter though Mercedes is far much ahead of
Tesla in terms of followers and tweets (Fisk, 2014).
Both brands seem to post almost the same type of content; that is, images of
vehicles and great captions describing them. Moreover, there are tweets on
customer feedback so as to serve their customers better.
Frequency of Tweets
The frequency of posts for the two brands
differ in a big proportion. Mercedes Benz has a total of 29,200 tweets while
Tesla has just 6189 tweets. Moreover, Mercedes Benz’s latest tweet was posted
about 24 minutes ago while that of Tesla is around 15 hours old. This much
difference shows a high frequency of tweeting for Mercedes Benz and vice versa.
More so, they both obey the 50/50 rule though Mercedes is proving to be more
successful on the same.
Most Successful Recent Tweets
Mercedes Benz’s most successful tweet was
on October 12, 2016. It had 187 retweets and 448 favorites. This is a great
progress considering the fact that the post is just a day old. The design looks
so good and the photo deserves the favorites.
On the other hand, Tesla’s most successful
recent tweet was posted on October 7, 2016. It is a photo of vehicles on a trip
after completing a 3-billion-mile electric drive. It has 3,200 retweets and
7,400 favorites. This tweet gains success due to the fact that this vehicle
saves a lot of fuel hence conserves the environment through avoiding air
pollution.

#Blog Post 1 Mercedes Benz Vs Tesla on Facebook by Yiran Zhao
Kind of Content Posted
These two brands have fully established
themselves on Facebook hence getting so much influence through the likes and
feedbacks they are getting. The two brands are well known for manufacturing
cars. They normally post images as their cars and captions describing how good
their products are to potential customers.
Frequency of Posts
For a brand to fully establish itself in
the market, it is important for the brand to ensure that it posts to its
customers and potential customers. This serves as a reminder to the customers
of the existence of the brand. The frequency of posts for the two brands differ
with Mercedes Benz taking dominion over Tesla. Mercedes Benz post after every
few hours. In fact, Mercedes Benz ends up posting 3 to 6 posts per day. This is
different from Tesla whose post frequency is really low. Both of them use the
rule of 50/50 since they both concentrate in making the best design for the
customer.
Most Successful Recent Posts
The success of a post is normally
determined by the likes, shares and comments it has (De Vries&Leeflang, 2012).
Furthermore, the time that the post was made is also a determining factor. A
post that attracts the most likes, comments and shares in the shortest time is
more successful and vice versa. The most recent successful post by Mercedes was
posted on October 13, 2016 attracting a total of 23,000 likes, 179 comments and
628 shares. It is a post containing 7 images of Mercedes Benz CLS on a trip
through Portugal. The rays of the sun gave the images n awesome look hence
gaining so much success.
The Mercedes Benz page has about 2,299,798
likes while the Tesla page has around 1,706,826 likes. This is clear indication
of how successful Mercedes Benz is on Facebook.
