By means of a field experiment, corporate brand posts on Facebook are analyzed regarding their effect on brand fans’ post recall capability, attitude toward the brand, and purchase intention. Results indicate that Facebook brand posts are able to positively influence fans’ attitude toward the brand. A significant interaction effect between the level of product involvement and the degree of brand posts’ interactivity and vividness is found. Implications for marketing research and practitioners are discussed.
