This analysis explores three notable brands—Tesla, Netflix, and Goldman Sachs—that failed to leverage Facebook effectively for customer engagement and brand storytelling. Tesla's minimal use of social media resulted in a lack of informative updates, while Netflix's communication mishaps highlighted the need for a more responsive customer service approach. Goldman Sachs, on the other hand, ceased all social media activity, signaling disregard for customer interaction. These failures underscore the importance of genuine engagement and communication in building strong customer relationships.
