Innovation Maersk Line is among the world's major shipping firms. As of 2011, Jonathan Wichmann has been in command of the company's social media operations in a newly created position. With less than $100,000, Winchmann grew the company's social media presence in only two years, gaining 1 million Facebook likes, 22,000 Instagram followers, and 40,000 Twitter followers. Workers at Maersk Line believed that nobody would follow or promote the firm on social media until they recruited Jonathan Wichmann to manage the company's online presence. After learning that Wichmann and the firm had made the same decision to invest in social media advertising, a lot of things started to make sense. The new focus is on "communications, customer support, sales, and internal use," the corporation says. They were looking to forge stronger bonds with their clientele. The company's goal for its various social media outlets was to increase engagement and brand recognition.
