® 2012 Dachis Group. Confidential and Proprietary
Widespread digital protests disrupted Walmart’s carefully laid plans.
1
Walmart used their scale to combat the backlash from shoppers angry about the store’s labor practices and the bad behavior of Black Friday shoppers. Customers on social media took over Facebook comments and Walmart’s own Twitter hashtags with protests against the brand. The #blackfriday hashtag was in 20.6% of Walmart tweets, while the #walmartstrikers hashtag was in 20.57%.

Walmart’s enormous social reach drew millions of likes.
While these user-generated messages added up to a formidable 1.6M impressions, it was still nothing compared to the reach of the brand’s own social content.
Amazon Benefits From High Advocacy
® 2012 Dachis Group. Confidential and Proprietary
214% Amplification Rate, Highest of all the Black Friday Retailers.
2
Amazon saw +214.67% amplification for its owned social content, which mostly played on the luxury of skipping Black Friday crowds to shop from the comfort of home on Amazon.com.

Amazon Benefits From High Advocacy
® 2012 Dachis Group. Confidential and Proprietary
Amazon highlighted the benefits of the shopping experience.
2
A brand not known for flashy social media efforts, Amazon still earned the biggest amplification for its social content simply by playing up their appeal as the antidote to Black Friday brick-and-mortar shopping madness.Amazon traditionally gets a lot of mentions on Twitter because of the built-in social sharing features on the site and self-promotion by Marketplace retailers. But this year the Twitter conversation was less about product and more about the shopping experience. A shift towards deeper engagement for the brand.

Kohl’s Followed Up, Asks “How’d it go?”
® 2012 Dachis Group. Confidential and Proprietary
Kohl’s follow-up tactics drive high engagement.
3
Kohl’s sees the most customer engagement on its Facebook page, compared to Twitter. The typical Kohl’s shopper is very coupon savvy and deals-focused. Kohl’s worked these facts to their advantage using Facebook as a place to allow their customers to brag and celebrate the deals they scored at Kohl’s.

Black Friday
Toys R Us Had the Largest Brand Impact
® 2012 Dachis Group. Confidential and Proprietary
Toys R Us owned 42% of the conversation among toys & electronics retailers... but it wasn’t all positive.
4
A lot of the conversation from shoppers on Toys R Us’ social channels went negative, driven by complaints around long waits, out of stock toys, and high prices. There were also many negative comments around how the store opened Thanksgiving night - taking time away from families. Much of the positive conversation stemmed from excitement around individual products (such as the Wii U). So while the brand took the lion's share of the conversation, much of it was negative.

Toys R US combated negativity with charity and @Shaq.

As a contrast to the negative commentary from shoppers, Toys R Us partnered with NBA (and Twitter) superstar @Shaq, encouraging followers to Give Back with Shaq to benefit kits impacted by Hurricane Sandy and donate to Toys for Tots.
