This post announces the IWC
China Tour and presents briefly
the brand history and some
products.
IWC is posting more frequently
on Weibo than Weixin.
MONTBLANC
Creating early “buzz” around the product is a fantastic
way to increase and develop word-of-mouth (iWOM)
1. Purchasing and owning luxury watches is a status symbol for Chinese people. Posting about products and
brand history satisfies the need of the fans who are eager to learn as much as they can about luxury watches
and brands. 2. Fans often repost about celebrities and campaigns.
To encourage them to post and
repost , you must understand the
interests of your audience and
connect with them by engaging and
posting relevant information.
