The purpose for this paper is to explore social media marketing from

the perspective of entrepreneurial learning. The theoretical basis consists of

contributions from the fields of organisational learning and entrepreneurship.

An empirical study involving ten companies has been carried out. The

data were analysed with methods inspired by grounded theory. Categories

describing the companies’ social media presence from an entrepreneurial

learning perspective are provided. The value of using organisational learning as

a framework for social media marketing is shown. Thus, the paper presents a

novel way of studying social media activities which should contribute to the

theoretical fields of organisational learning and entrepreneurship as well as to

the understanding of social media marketing. For practitioners, the findings

provide additional knowledge that should be useful for their own social media

activities.
