Social Media Monitoring (Audit)
Social media is a form of public communication and a platform for consumers and other target audiences to express themselves freely, which makes it the most trustworthy source of information. Social media is not limited to social networks and also includes message boards, blogs, review sites and other outlets.
Monitoring of these outlets provides an effective tool to analyze consumer sentiment, monitor and manage reputational risks, and evaluate PR and marketing campaigns.
Our Advantages
Done on a regular basis, social media monitoring enables you to:
- make prompt adjustments to your communication strategy when necessary;
- react and respond to negative coverage and crises timely; and
- be the first to bring new products and services to the market.
Not only does it offer you the latest updates on the market and preferences of your target audience, but also your competition’s activities, communication failures and successes. Having the full picture at all times, you save time and money trying to figure out on your own what sites you need to be present on, what consumers need right now, what content will work, and what bloggers you need for effective collaboration.
