Earned vs owned reach
Of the 3.7k total reach today, 97% is the chains posting on their own channels and only 3% is independent voices. The organic conversation is small relative to brand broadcasting — every headline metric above is the earned 3%.
| Chain | Earned | Owned | Owned % |
|---|---|---|---|
| 7-Eleven | 92 | 3.5k | 97% |
| Cheers | 35 | 21 | 38% |
Earned = organic / independent voices — this drives Share of Voice, sentiment and everything above. Owned = the brands' own official accounts, i.e. what they broadcast. A high owned share means the day's buzz is largely brand-driven, not organic.

Act on this
The Musang King durian ice cream launch is generating warm emoji reactions on IG, but FB comments directly challenge the premium claim, citing China-made packaging and an artificial taste — a risk to the 'real durian' positioning.
▸ Two separate FB commenters (Edwin Gan, Tracy Lee) independently raise the same authenticity concern.
Made in China Try it… taste very artificial
“Made in China... I tried it, tastes very artificial.”

The $0.10 voucher campaign is driving strong footfall and store-hopping, but multiple Xiaohongshu commenters report stock disappearing almost instantly, and one explicitly says a store had visible stock but refused to sell it — a fairness and trust risk amid otherwise positive earned media.
▸ Shopper reports of depleted stock across multiple stores plus one explicit refusal-to-sell complaint.

Comments on the Tamagoyaki egg roll and durian ice cream posts ask simple, high-intent questions (halal status, price, where to buy) that remain unanswered, wasting purchase-intent traffic.
▸ Unanswered halal query on Tamagoyaki post and price/location queries on durian ice cream post.

Pusheen figurines, Toy Story Phone Hippers, and the $0.10 Crayon Shin-chan voucher redemption are generating authentic, unprompted excitement — especially among tourists on Xiaohongshu, where scarcity is driving multi-store visits.
▸ Spontaneous positive reactions and successful-redemption posts on Xiaohongshu with no incentive prompting.

What's Working
Two mechanics are punching well above standard promo content: limited-edition collectibles and the scarcity-driven $0.10 voucher redemption, both generating unprompted, authentic enthusiasm.

Customer Report Card
Beyond the promo buzz, customers are raising fairness, authenticity, and basic-info gaps that deserve a direct response.

A shopper reports a store had visible voucher stock but declined to sell it, undermining trust in the campaign.

7-ElevenDurian ice cream authenticity doubts
Customers question the real-durian claim, citing China-made packaging and artificial taste.
Wonder what is the percentage of real durian are used and the rest must be artificial flavour. Packing look like it is made in tiongland.
