When you’re a Swedish home furniture brand, being witty on social media can be a difficult task – this is how IKEA UAE’s social media nails it on Twitter!

Here’s some unrelated trivia about the name IKEA : The IKEA name combines the initials of IKEAfounder, Ingvar Kamprad, (IK) with the first letters from the names of the farm and village where he grew up – Elmtaryd and Agunnaryd (EA). The IKEA logo has hardly changed during the company’s history and the 1967 version remains a consistent symbol of theIKEA business.

These brands sure do know how to make Twitter interesting for us! Here’s what we can learn from these brands!

• Creative conversations on Twitter gather more engagement than anything else.
• Use witty GIFs in conversations to keep things interesting.
• Don’t be afraid to jump into a conversation – but don’t completely highjack the thread.
• It’s not about promoting your products but just making your presence felt.
• Be quick with what your response and always make sure to not cross the line with any customer.
• Treat influencers and regular Twitteratis as equal.
