However, Facebook leads in shares and comments out of all three platforms. As for followers and likes of each social media page, Facebook leads with the most page likes (4,041,843), followed by Twitter (354,000) and Instagram (170,000).

Social Media Policy Social media is a crucial part of establishing a relationship with our market audience. For this reason, we must be diligent in how we represent our brand and how we establish our identity in the market. We must not only be respectful to others, but also be focused on listening to our customers and looking for solutions to solve their problems. Customer service is at the top of our priority and some of our guidelines are:  Be respectful AND professional  Ask for their first names and respond accordingly  Respond in a timely manner. Don’t keep anyone waiting  Make sure you end each conversation on a positive note  Build a relationship by truly listening and getting to know the person  Don’t be afraid to ask for advice from your team. Chili’s is determined to provide the best possible experience for guests. For this reason, these guidelines are meant to be strictly followed and used to lead you to a successful experience with our customers. Failure to abide by these guidelines, and failure to end with a positive experience for our guests, may result in consequences, such as suspension, increased training hours, and even termination.
Critical Response Plan 1:  Angry customer complains about food, service, or overall experience at the restaurant on social media.  Read, analyze, and try to understand the person’s complaint.  When ready, send your analysis to our social media manager, Lauren Fernandez, along with the contact information of the person.  Lauren will personally contact the person, apologize for their bad experience, and listen to their feedback.  Lauren will then transfer the responsibility to our PR leader, Felipe, who will provide the customer with a solution and offer to correct the issue.  The solution can come in various forms such as discount card, gift box, and social media feature.
Critical Response Plan 2  Customer posts picture of a bad photo that doesn’t represent our brand or food in a good light.  Detect photo, screenshot it, and send to Rodrigo, our Marketing Director, immediately.  Ask person who posted the picture for their contact information and send that information to Lauren.  Once the information is received, Lauren and Felipe will contact the person and understand their experience.  Lauren and Felipe will then kindly offer them a solution through discount offers and ask them to respectfully remove the photo.  If they do remove the photo, give them a shout-out on social media and feature them on one of the posts.  If they don’t remove the picture, still treat them with respect and continue to offer solution to make them happy.
