Strategies: Understanding their customers... LEGO started out their goal of building a SMM bridge with customers by studying their consumer demographics based on purchase and usage rate.
Strategies: Six Catagories of Customer Personas LEGO then took this research and created six categories of personas for consumers based on those purchase/usage rates. These personas included: Lead Users, 1:1 Community, Connected Community, Active Households, Covered Households, and All Households.
Strategies: Applying Personas to SMM LEGO took these persona studies and realized the majority was in the All Household category and least in the Lead Users. So, finding the most growth in the first three categories, that's were the majority of their efforts went.
Results: In 2010, LEGO captured 6.9% of the global market of toy sales, making it the fourth largest toy manufacture. With a net profit of 688 million dollars that year.
Call to Action: Build, Create, and Discover LEGO has built a product line design to test and open the creativity of the mind in both children and adults alike through its SMM strategies encouraging customers to create photos, viral videos, and more.
