Earned vs owned reach
Of the 724 total reach today, 88% is the chains posting on their own channels and only 12% is independent voices. The organic conversation is small relative to brand broadcasting — every headline metric above is the earned 12%.
| Chain | Earned | Owned | Owned % |
|---|---|---|---|
| 7-Eleven | 26 | 637 | 96% |
| Cheers | 61 | 0 | 0% |
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 IVE Rei Mini Dubai cookies are driving strong organic demand, but a customer reported she could only source the last single box and missed the 2-for-$12 bundle offer, implying stock or communication gaps on promo terms for high-demand limited SKUs.
▸ Xiaohongshu user paid full $7.5 single-box price after being unable to find a second box for the bundle deal.
💰价格：迷你版单盒7.5新币，折合人民币40多。有活动两盒12新币，可惜我只挖到最后一盒，凑不到优惠[哭惹R]看到的可以赶紧去冲呀[派对R]
“Price: mini box is S$7.5 each, about 40+ RMB. There's a bundle promo of 2 boxes for S$12, but I could only grab the last box so couldn't get the discount. Go grab it if you see it!”

CheersNostalgia content builds affinity, not brand recall
Cheers' local-history post about a former petrol station drove a long, warm comment thread, but nearly all comments reference rival petrol brands (Esso, Shell) and unrelated landmarks rather than Cheers itself.
▸ 7 comments on the post reminisce about Esso/Shell fuel loyalty and old Toa Payoh institutions with zero mention of Cheers products or stores.
