Birchbox knows how to power sales through social media. Their latest effort assembled a small army in their “social media war room” to personally respond to every mention of their brand on Customer Appreciation Day—and it was worth it.

The brand customized responses with offers based on a customer’s purchase history and other information (subscription sign ups = lots of customer data), and awarded loyalty points proportionate to how long someone had an account with them.
