Maybe* listened to the online conversation created by and about The Entertainer through June 2019. In the second of our three-part blog series, we’re looking at how the toy brand is keeping it playful online and offline with social media.
Why your brand experience should align with your social media content
Looking at the detail
Brand behaviour should influence social content
We analysed the language in the 129 pieces of content that the Entertainer created in June. The green spikes show how positive the content is, The Entertainer keep it perky, positive, and playful.
We saw in our last blog post, what they create content about - product and people. They are a toy brand, toys are fun, their social content joyfully follows suit.
In a world where peer to peer reviews and the voice of the customer is so public, a brand is dictated less by aspirational glossy ad campaigns. Instead, your brand perception is now informed by whether your walk aka your behaviour and experience is aligned to your talk.
The Entertainer has sought to ensure that their digital commerce and their online content reflects the in-store experience and a “fun and family orientated narrative”.

The key takeway
Brand is more than a logo and a name; it's behaviour. Don’t be afraid to be passionate, authentic and you. Ensure that how you behave online, is the same as how you would behave offline.
