Ericsson recognized early that simply spouting marketing messages from the official company channels was not enough. Especially as part of its B2B marketing strategy, Ericsson knew that it could only be part of particular conversations, if it participated through the messages of its employees (including executive leadership), who were better able to connect with target audiences, in a way that the 'brand messaging' could not do. Being one of those brands that has been successfully doing employee advocacy for almost 10 years, you won't want to miss a minute of this special case story episode about Ericsson, which is choked full of practical insights and takeaways.
In this "Internal Marketing Case Story" episode, Anita Veszeli, Ericsson's director of social media and advocacy, breaks down:
- The background on why Ericsson was an early adopter of employee advocacy
- How the company got started and now runs the programme
- Lessons learned along their decade-long journey
- How do they measure impact and success of their employee advocacy programme
