What's in this Episode?

This episode dives into how food and beverage brands are using social intelligence to stay relevant in a fast-moving culture. The panel explores how community managers surface hidden insights from comment sections, why nostalgia and seasonal cues drive engagement, and how sentiment data is reshaping campaigns in real-time. With examples from global brands and candid discussion about internal silos, the conversation reveals how social teams are quietly influencing product decisions, customer experience, and brand storytelling — especially in the wake of the pandemic.
