Virtual brand community based on the mobile social media is a new platform of value co-creation. It has become a hot research issue in recent years. Previous researches advocate that the enterprise is the value guide of the value co-creation activity, but there is no theoretical discussion on how the enterprise plays the role as a value guide. With a successful case of the mobile social media marketing in the world, Starbucks, this paper analyzes 469 qualitative data and constructed the virtual brand community value co-creation mechanism model of the mobile social media. The model illustrates how an enterprise can lead to value co-creation. Based on the model, this paper constructs three dimensions of value co-creation based on enterprise guidance: use of value, co-production and co-creation of performance. We also build seven guiding mechanisms for value co-creation of mobile social media virtual brand communities, namely consumer demand stimulation, strong brand communication, grounded consumer care, O2O experience, platform interaction, consumer engagement and strengthening of ties.
