Nokia Pakistan Becomes the Top Brand on Facebook with 1 million fans



What is fan page and why creating a facebook fan page for your business?

In today's world facebook page works as a primary level communication with your customer. In the past web page was enough but today two way communication matters most. In addition to 2 way communication facebook page empower your customers to share the new models with their friends and family via their facebook account, so you getting publicity of your product for almost nothing. Expert says and I quote "The biggest advantage of facebook fan page is that it deepens customer relationship".


Nokia Facebook FanPage now have a Million Fans in less 10 months. What does it means? It means, It is now engaging Million Pakistani fans via their facebook and making sure that they getting all the latest information, deals and any other happening with Nokia Pakistan. Interestingly one of my friend says that he updated a feed back via Nokia Pakistan page and he got response immediately. (isn't that we all are looking for?) Currently Pakistan have around 7.5 million facebook users and Nokia is now able to cover 1 Million of them which is a big achievement.

Current trend and statistic in Pakistan:



Haseeb Ihtisham, Head of Marketing - Nokia MENA says:

“We are thoroughly pleased with the growing excitement around Nokia Pakistan on Facebook. For us,
achieving 1 million fans of our Facebook page is a proof that Nokia continues to deliver an exceptional
communications experience to consumers. It also reflects the fact that Nokia has been able to
successfully connect with Nokia fans across Pakistan on a personal level,”

Djuice Apportunity Closing Ceremony - 2012

So this year's Apportunity contest is now officially closed. I was invited to their event along with other bloggers and twiterati's :)

Event started with introduction of djApportunity which is same that empowering our youth to create more and more apps and giving them platform a global exposure and resources, thus helping them in all possible ways to make sure they become successful.

Some facts about this year programme of "App mein kitna hay dum" This year most of the apps were submitted by students from Karachi University. 83 apps were completed and were submitted and all were registered. 1700 plus registrants from 8 universities of Pakistan. I personally think it will cross 140 next year.

After this lot if intro's the guy running the show kept the event interesting on tried his level best to keep event interesting lol.. kher moving forward Panel discussion on "Future of mobile Apps" very interesting questions and answers.

After that a competition to find all the QR codes was there. Scavenger hunt and one of ma buddy won!!!. Moving forward quiz and later gift ceremony to those who were able to sell most of the apps or were able to make quiet interesting apps and then food.

Overall it was a marvellous job by DJuice team, I believe they hired Lane12 as their digital company.

My live tweets from the event:

In the end, I believe Djuice / Telenor is doing an amazing job to contribute in the echo system and I am just surprise that other giants from the same industry are not following them yet!
