    Social Media &resence

    +urrently! since the company is brand new it has no such presence in any

    social media! but there are plans that ha#e been made to increase the

    company,s social media presence. This will be done throuh (aceboo" at

    'rst! and if e#erythin is oin well! then the company,s social media

    presence will spread to )ouTube and later on to twitter! (lic"r and brand

    communities.

    Since the company is startin from Lahore! the social media presence

    related oal is to try reachin all the residents usin (aceboo" in Lahore! this

    can include students! business men! families etc. all and all most of the

    people of Lahore -if not entire will be tareted. /f the residents will 'nd it

    interestin and this social media will ha#e a positi#e impact on them! then in

    order to further increase the social media presence and e0pose the people to

    the information of our products and ser#ices e#en more )ouTube will also be

    included and we will focus on increasin our in$uence in )ouTube! as well as!

    maintainin our social media presence in (aceboo". Later! in order to

    increase our in$uence e#en further! we will increase our in$uence in twitter!

    (lic"r and brand communities! so that the information about our productsand ser#ices -that will be o&ered will reach the taret mar"et e&ecti#ely.

    The company will also form its own website on the internet! from where the

    customers can contact with the company directly to as" any *uestions

    this oes well then! in the future we will also pay #arious other companies or

    websites to mention our company in their website.

    When it comes to HWAA fast food this is the plan! but what about the social

    media presence of its competitor! there are many fast food restaurants

    present in Lahore that pose a hue threat to the company and its pro'ts. Thecompetitors are Burer "in! Howdy! (+! 3c4onald and Hardees. These

    companies ha#e been in Lahore for a lon time and thus ha#e much stroner

    preference in the minds of the customers! not only this! they ha#e well

    *uali'ed employees and ha#e a #ery stron social media presence in twitter!

    )ouTube! (aceboo" and they ha#e presence in brand communities as well!

    where their products and ser#ices! #arious o&ers etc. are discussed by the

    people. +ompetin with them will be hard.

    Competitive analsis

    The Social 3edia SW6T analysis of the company in#ol#es the strenths!

    wea"nesses! the opportunities and the threats that the company faces due

    to the e0tent to which the competition is far in the social media.

    $(e strengt(s:

    When we tal" about the strenths of HWAA fast food +ompany! 'rst there is

    (aceboo". 6ur entire roup of people "nows fully! how to use the (aceboo"and also understand how important it is to ha#e social media presence on

    the (aceboo"! since ma7ority of the people in Lahore use (aceboo". HWAA

    fast food has 2 personal that are social media specialists on (aceboo" and on

    the other social media platform! which is )ouTube. They can be of reat

    bene't to increase social media in$uence on the customers. These personal

    are ood at ma"in appealin #ideos! pictures of products and ser#ices or

    o&ers and also other content and postin them which can be #ery bene'cial

    to HWAA fast food and they are also #ery capable in puttin #ery well

    desined content -pictures etc. on the social media platforms! to attractma0imum customers.

    Aside from well *uali'ed personal! the HWAA fast food people are united and

    our i#in their full support! not only that! they are moti#ated to e0pand this

    business and ma"e it successful. This also means that there is hih deree of

    teamwor" potential which is #ery bene'cial. The personal are also #ery

    responsible -as they are e0cited and moti#ated and all of them want to do a

    ood 7ob.

    We also ha#e a website specialist! who is well *uali'ed and well capable to

    ma"e a website that has appealin te0ture and desin8 he will also

    constantly update the website if needed.

    $(e #eaknesses:

    6ne of the ma7or wea"nesses is less in$uence in the social media! where the

    competitors ha#e hih in$uence in this! HWAA fast food! bein a brand new

    company! has no in$uence in (aceboo"! )ouTube! (lic"r! Twitter. Since it is a

    brand new company! not many people "now about it or are interested in it!

    they are more interested in multinational fast food restaurants that ha#e a

    ood imae in their mind! such as 3c4onalds! (+ etc. Another wea"ness is

    also that! the HWAA fast food does not ha#e any specialist well in social

    media mar"etin on (lic"r and Twitter! since they don,t ha#e an

    understandin of it and don,t "now how to use it! the sta& is not #ery

    supporti#e in social media mar"etin on (lic"r and Twitter! since they don,t

    "now how to use it.

    $(e opportunities:

    The most bene'cial opportunity a#ailable to HWAA fast food is the fact that

    ma7ority of the people in Lahore use (aceboo"! so (aceboo" can be a #ery

    ood social media platform and it can enable us to reach a hih number of

    people in Lahore. There is also )ouTube that is used in a lare e0tent for

    purposes such as interaction with other people! postin #ideos etc. so by

    postin #ideos on )ouTube! we can reach the information on our products

    and ser#ices to our customers. We can use )ouTube as a source of

    information relatin to customers way of thin"in! their preferences etc. by

    readin and analyzin the comments below and by the amount of li"es and

    disli"es.

    6n (aceboo"! there are #arious areas that ma7ority of the people lo#e to #isit!

    T: sports! which as a total estimated fans of ;52! A@) news! Wa*t news and Samaa news.

    These areas can be a ood place to in$uence the people.

    eople also use (lic"r for postin and sharin pictures in Lahore! it presents a

    reat opportunity to post #arious pictures of product and ser#ices! and try to

    appeal the citizens with our o&ers! prices! desin! etc.

    There is an opportunity to use Twitter as well! since it is used by many people

    for the purpose of sharin pictures. This social media platform can i#e the

    opportunity for HWAA fast food +ompany to post pictures of the restaurant,s

    physical en#ironment and of its products li"e burer meals etc.

    3c4onald is a well%"nown fast food restaurant in Lahore and in the entire

    a"istan. /t uses social media platforms such asD

    Facebook

    6ne of the most famous brands to adapt to social media in a"istan is

    3c4onald,s. 3c4onald,s came to a"istan with a plan! coupled with an

    aressi#e ad#ertisin to taret its customers at a brand new le#el of

    interacti#ity. With the riht mi0 of updates! i#eaways and an interestinly

    popular (aceboo" Application 3c4onald,s is claimed its proud standin in

    social media mar"etin.

    3c4onald,s started ad#ertisin its oEcial (aceboo" pae for a"istan! lurin

    their taret audience for a i#eaway campain "nown as F7oy on the oG. A

    simple (aceboo" app where fans wrote in why 3c4onald,s dri#e throuh is

    their 7oy on the mo#e. The participants with the most li"es for their story

    were awarded some awesome prizes li"e ipad5! iods and meal #ouchers.

    This is producin a ood #ibe. 3oreo#er the pae is pretty responsi#e to the

    *uestions and *ueries put forward by its fans! but more e&ort is needed toma"e sure the brands puts forward a more communicati#e imae! thus

    strenthenin a bond between the fans and 3c4onald,s.

    With this application! 3c4onald de'nitely arri#ed on the a"istan,s internet

    mar"etplace and it would be interestin to see how re#olutionary the

    company ets once it settles its initial online area. 3c4onald,s remains one

    of the biest brands in the world and this is re$ected in its social media

    communities. The 3c4onald! despite bein a well%"nown restaurant! has a

    certain number of faults such asD 3c4onald,s actually does relati#ely little in

    reards to postin content on its wall. Accepted wisdom suests that youneed to post fre*uent updates in order to maintain people,s attention on

    (aceboo".3c4onald,s enerally posts fewer than '#e updates a month yet

    each one attracts se#eral thousand li"es, and comments! which is more than

    the brands that posts se#eral times per day. 3c4onald,s ma"es no apparent

    e&ort to respond to the thousands of user comments it recei#es! and most of

    its posts are merely product promotions. /nterestinly! the local mar"et

    paes are far more acti#e and post se#eral updates per wee". While many

    businesses use social to i#e a more rounded imae of the brand by postin

    lifestyle content! 3c4onald,s 7ust promotes its product rane and upcominchanes to the menu.

    I#en so! it maintains an impressi#e le#el of enaement! with each post

    attractin se#eral thousand li"es, and comments.
