Honda has developed a strong social media strategy, and is using Salesforce Marketing Cloud to ensure that social is at the core of their European organization. They have implemented a social solution that focuses on several key areas – bringing data closer to different divisions, improving communications and relationships with their customers, and ensuring they have a seamless workflow between team members, departments as well as across countries. To do that, Honda employed local community managers in several European countries. They are now working for the benefit of all departments and increase interaction and cooperation especially between the Marketing, PR, and Customer Service teams.
