I 'like' The Body Shop


Apart from offering a great range of hair and body care products made from natural ingredients, what extra The Body Shop offers to loyalists like me is their awesome Facebook page. https://www.facebook.com/TheBodyShop When you log onto their Facebook page, the first thing you notice are these images of various natural ingredients like fruits, nuts etc. and local people of different ethnicities collecting or carrying them.  This has a feel good factor and gives a sense of satisfaction that what you are subjecting your skin and hair to are actually made of natural ingredients.

Their Facebook page carries all sorts of product information. You get to know about new product launches, special offers, coupons and much more. Also, they make a conscious effort to showcase how eco-friendly and ethical the company is and that their products are all natural.

I am pretty impressed with their promptness in responding to fans’ queries or complaints. They interact with the fans regularly by initiating interesting discussions or by simply liking the photos and comments posted by the fans. This surely makes them feel special and cared for.  Their Facebook page also has fun elements like various contests (for instance, ‘Divine Chocolate Share the Love Recipe Story Contest’), helpful tips (‘Easy Halloween Makeup Looks’) etc.

Facebook is also being effectively used as a platform to support social causes. They have started various campaigns on Facebook such as ‘Stop Sex Trafficking of Children & Young People’ and ‘Defend Human Rights’. Such initiatives bolster its image of a socially responsible company. Another good feature is that the fans can interact with the suppliers of the company from the different parts of the world and become more aware of what is actually going into the products. So, haven’t you got enough reasons to ‘like’ The Body Shop?
