GOOD PRACTICES
They usually employ hashtags to link the activity of Facebook and Twitter.
The brand that has the largest audience is not necessarily the one that achieves the most engagement. Jack Daniel's has the best engagement in spite of not having the highest audience.
Jack Daniel's gains engagement when focusing its content on product and background.
All brands do a great economic effort on Youtube using it as their online TV.
Spirit Brands show models of people consuming alcohol in different situations (loneliness, elitism, night, party, in group, youth).
19
BAD PRACTICES
They sometimes use hashtags that cannot create any memories (#staytrue, #whiskywednesday, #wildrabbit).
Google Plus is another interesting social network to have presence in, but it is hardly used.
None of the brands is present on Pinterest, Flickr and Instagram at the same time.
