Oreo Facebook Page:

One of the main reasons why I love Oreo is not just because of its chocolate deliciousness but also because of how engaged the brand is. Their Facebook page is a clear representation of its active engagement with its audience by providing continuous content featured not only on their Facebook page but also on their twitter handle as well. Their “Daily Twist” campaign where they featured new content every day for 100 years to celebrate their 100 years in business was gorgeous, touching on monumental days such as Gay Pride, the Mars Rover landing and even Elvis week. By offering creative advertising to celebrate the small things that their audience was familiar with, they created themselves as a more active and fun brand.


While their Facebook page does not offer premiums or participatory events such as games or surveys, they do provide a place to share user-generated content and a platform to serve as a customer service “portal,” where users can go to complain about their products or even rave about it as well. While the user-generated content aren’t actively featured on the wall (it remains exclusive to only Oreo released content), audience content is listed under the “Recent Posts by Others on Oreo,” where users post pictures of their baby having their first Oreo cookie to creative arrangements of their Oreos. Most importantly, Oreo is best known for releasing creative and heartwarming content. Their “Daily Twist” campaign really solidified them as a leader in creative content within the advertising community, a title which they have consistently held to this day, especially following their Vine compilations of their #OreoHorrorStories videos. With over 34 Million Likes, they’re definitely doing a great job at keeping their audience happy.
