When we first partnered with Fender Guitars, we realized that there was a lack of defined workflows and processes for identifying escalations and a process for flagging influencer/artist content. Responses to the social channels was inconsistent and there wasn’t a clear path to success.

By partnering with the Fender, Social Factor was able to provide a cohesive plan that allowed them to a.) leverage their existing investment in Social Media Management Software, b.) by implementing efficiencies, Fender was able to get more meaningful engagements with their existing fan base and c.) created living, breathing workflows that could be customized to fit Fenders priorities based on social channel, desired types of engagements, incoming volume, and platform capabilities.

By implementing custom workflows, Social Factor was able to support Fender with an event activation (NAMM), create meaningful interactions between the audience and moderation team and finally be able to support Fender donating over 200K free Fender Play licenses during the 2020 Covid-19 shelter in place.
