Employee Advocacy

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Employee advocacy is a communications process that enables a company’s employees to promote and share its messages, products and services, through their own personal social media accounts and profiles. Centralized content is created by the organization and shared with employees who can personalize and post it to their own audiences, with the goal of extending a company’s reach and impact.

We’ve managed B2B brands’ employee advocacy programs, across a host of sectors and can provide best practices for this communications approach, as well as the knowledge of which tools will deliver the most value.

By implementing such a program it will push an organization into audiences that it could not have reached on its own. This results in enhanced visibility, reach and trust and can also spur lead generation and support recruitment of new employees.

Employee advocacy programs typically work best at organizations with more than 50 employees. Not every member of an organization will have a social media presence or be engaged to share its information through their own personal channels. Therefore, a larger pool of employees is preferable for an employee advocacy program to be successful. However, in certain sectors, such as non-profits or mission-driven organizations, employee advocacy activity at smaller organizations can deliver real value and reach.
