Abstract

Informed by the Mindful Adoption Theory, this study analyzed the antecedents of social media strategies applied by the top Chinese companies and the effects of the strategies on popularity of corporate social media. Using documentary analysis, content analysis, and data mining, the study found that corporation’s globalization orientation positively predicts corporation’s social media presence on Facebook and Twitter. Firms with different marketing orientations deploy various disclosure strategies on Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube.
