2021 GLC Social Media Promotion

As part of the annual campaign, GNTB will plan Ad Post on Key SoMe channels in the Chinese market for marketing on the topic of GermanLocalCulture. Weibo and WeChat are the two core social media channels in China. After discussion with HV SoMe department and evaluation of the two channels, the decision for Weibo ad promotion was made due to the high price-performance ratio and suitable target audience as well as the suitable user characteristic for the objective.

The promotion on Weibo could only be done by Weibo itself. No other agency or organisation can provide the services. Therefore, the only option is to invest the budget of 10,000 EUR through Weibo for the Ad Post on it. To invest another 3,000 EUR only for the GLC Partner Stuttgart on Weibo. The total budget is therefore 13.000 EUR

The campaign will be implemented from the beginning of May to June 2021.

Location: People’s republic of China
