Fifty & Five manages the day-to-day engagement with guests on our social media platforms including Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter. Their team deals with complaints and accommodations. They also have conversations with our guests. They’re the personification of our brand, making sure that we don’t feel like an anonymous corporate entity online.

Their team creates the content that’s posted on all of the different social platforms. When there’s a trend, they create a proposal for how we can jump into the conversation.

I work directly with two people from Fifty & Five. One person’s in a senior position and the other person’s in more of a support role.

They could be more proactive about proposing opportunities. As we’re so collaborative, it feels that we’re sometimes in the same box.
