The future of social media ROI - from likes to relational metrics
THE record haze of 2013 that blanketed Singapore and surrounding countries caused enormous social media chatter. Singaporeans turned to Twitter and Facebook to voice their concerns, fears and complaints about the smog emanating from burning Indonesian farmland across the Malacca Strait in nearby Sumatra. Many were worried that respirator masks were in short supply as citizens descended on pharmacies to stock up.
3M, a major supplier of N95 face masks was quick to respond. The company jumped into action, forming a crisis team of 20 employees dedicated to coordinating with the government and its supply chain to make sure there were enough masks to go around.
3M Singapore's social media team was also hot on the ball, publishing tips, alternative advice on how to battle the haze and even advised on different types of respirators available.
