transcosmos launched “Social media operations services” in May, 2011, serving over 100 clients by leveraging Shibuya Social Media Center and its call centers located across Japan. Many businesses demand robust monitoring structure for their social media operations to oversee operational framework, secure governance, manage risk as well as to have coherent marketing activities. At the same time, businesses demand the service providers to actively come up with proposals to keep up with the digitalized consumers.
