Building A Fans-centric Organization

The Chinese translation of followers on social media platforms is “粉丝 (FenSi)” — which doesn’t really mean “followers.” It has more emotion and means “Fans.” According to Wikipedia, “A fan, sometimes also called aficionado or supporter, is a person who is enthusiastically devoted to something or somebody, such as a band, a sports team, a genre, a book or an entertainer.” Today we share this great interview (see video above) produced by Thoughtful China on the topic of building a Fans-centric organization. It is particularly important for companies and brands targeting Chinese consumers.

The panel also discusses the application of various platforms. Marketers should not ignore Weibo. It still has a key role to play in the Chinese social media landscape, despite much press about Weibo being replaced by Wechat.
