Since home-shopping cable network QVC hired Omnicom Group’s Zimmerman Advertising last month for interactive and social-media chores, the client has added about 800 Facebook fans per day.

The assignment for the Fort Lauderdale, Fla., shop focuses on the holiday season, with the agency brought aboard to maximize QVC’s outreach on Facebook and Twitter and generally foster and grow the digital community and buzz surrounding the brand.

“Our hope is that this accessibility and information will help make holiday gift giving a little less crazy this season and more enjoyable than ever,” said Peter Farrell, QVC’s director of brand development and strategy.
