The importance of Analysing Social Media
Most brands have realised (and adopted a strategy) the importance of social media. In the digital world we are conducting business, social media plays a huge role in shaping ideas, opinions and sharing messages. It’s no wonder then why brands are heavily investing in marketing campaigns based on social media. Be it hashtag campaigns or a combination of DOOH with a relevant hashtag competition, social is omnipresent.A smart marketer, however, wont be content with just using social media for their employer. The devil lies in the details, hence, a constant, deep and detailed analysis of social media is equally important with social media. In other words, if you’re going to use social media for your marketing strategy but wont bother analysing your performance, you’re better-off not using social at all in the first place!
Thus – Enter: Social Media Analytics! There’s a plethora of tools out there that can help you with analysing your social media campaigns’ performance. Which one you’ll choose heavily depends on your needs. All you should definitely know is that, while you want to market your product/ service online and join the chatter, you’ll need to have clear set objectives beforehand for your analysis to be effective and lead to meaningful conclusions.
Social Media Analytics with Miappi
At Miappi we are in the business of obtaining the social proof from your customers in the form of social media. We then display this social proof on the digital touch-points that will make the biggest difference. It can be websites, email campaigns, digital screens, paid advertising and many more. However, it’s very important to be able to track and measure the performance and progress of said social proof. That’s why we took a step back and developed a tool that gives insights on how the UGC you obtained or your owned content behave.How to do social media analysis with Miappi?
