Key words: Integrated market communication (IMC), B2B communication in Asia, social network sites (SNS) Key findings: In this thesis I have presented a suggestion how a Japanese truck brand should work online. My research indicates that there are some areas that need more attention than others. One of my key findings indicates that UD Trucks has working accordingly to a crisis communication theory from 1963. In order to change this I have suggested numerous steps that I believe are necessary to take and as a result, integrated market communication (IMC), should be utilized and acknowledged for all online marketing activities.
