近年來社會企業的發展風起雲湧,社群行銷蔚為風尚,而台灣的社企是否趕上潮流來提升公司及品牌知名度,是值得探究的問題。本文採取國人目前最普遍運用的LINE@及臉書為研究範圍;在社會企業的標準認定上採取嚴格的定義。採文獻探討法、立意取樣法、深度訪談之半結構式訪談法、比較研究法等研究方法,廣泛搜尋社會企業後,再個別探究每家社企社群行銷使用狀況。
本研究顯示,我國社會企業營業中有社群網站食農創新類有27家;資訊服務類有16家;教育學習類有8家;環境保護類有8家;社區發展文化保存有8家;就業促進類有2家;醫療照護類有7家;公平貿易類有5家;老人照護類0家;社企創投有2家。
本研究發現我國的社會企業普遍缺乏社群行銷的能力,僅49.1%的社會企業設立了社群網站,積極經營社群網站的僅占23.1%,多數未派專人負責社群網站行銷,產品及理念推廣薄弱。
本研究也發現,社會企業如果適當運用社群網路行銷可降低行銷成本,直接主動接觸客戶,維繫良好的客戶關係,增進銷售業績達到永續經營的目標,而運用社群網路行銷的方式,臉書與LINE@各有不同的策略與方式,臉書經營偏向於提升品牌知名度,呈現更多理念及商品知識及優勢;使用LINE@直接鎖定客戶,針對產品銷售資訊提供,以提升社會企業經營利潤。
