What’s Not to “Like?”
研究发现，Facebook品牌粉丝的购买集中度与品牌实际购买者分布相反，偏向重度买家，导致这种“赢得媒体”的覆盖质量不佳。
<h3>ABSTRACT</h3> A marketer with a Facebook Fan base has at least some ability to advertise to that audience. What quality of reach, however, does this sort of “earned media” deliver? The landmark discovery by Andrew Ehrenberg of the negative binomial distribution (NBD) implies that the most effective advertising requires media that reach across both heavy and light buyers of the brand. This article investigates the buying concentration of the Facebook Fan base of two different brands (both Fast Moving Consumer Goods (FMCG) categories) and compares it to the brands9 actual buying bases. The buyer base of each of the brands is distributed in the typical NBD, whereas the Fan base delivered by Facebook is skewed in an opposite pattern—skewed toward the heaviest of the brands9 buyers—making the quality of Facebook9s reach appear rather unappealing.
