Widgets-R-Us is proposing expanding their social media presence in 2017 to platforms like Pinterest, Google+, LinkedIn, Instagram and Twitter to increase engagement, reach, and conversions. Their goals are to engage more people, push more traffic to their website, and gain more newsletter subscribers. They will create and distribute content across channels using consistent hashtags and measure performance through analytics tools from each platform like Google Analytics, Facebook Insights, and HootSuite reports. Progress will be evaluated monthly against goals and benchmarks.

#OUR MEASURING PROGRESS
We will align our analytics back to our goals
We will periodically examine data that measures progress towards
reaching our goals
We will use Hootsuite Analytics (advanced analytics & custom reports),
Facebook Insights & Google Analytics (who, when and how many people
are viewing and interacting) for measuring and reporting our progress
monthly

#CONCLUSION-1
After Identifying our key performance indicators (KPIs) per campaign
We will align our social media goals with our business objectives
We will set up our Google Analytics to track conversions
Then assign values to our KPIs - ex. (Awareness/ subscribtions/ Lifetime value/ Lifetime
value multiplied by conversion rate/ Average sale/ PPC valuation)
And for monitoring we will also benchmark against our competitors
20. WIDGETS-R-US
#CONCLUSION-2
One of the most important reasons we want to set up social media posts/campaigns is that it
will allow us to track individual links that we share on Twitter, Facebook, and our other social
media channels. That way, we can easily attribute visits from specific links we share.
We can set these links up through Google's URL builder, so the information will be included in
our Google Analytics Reporting
The easiest way to track our social media goals is by using Google Analytics dashboard,
[Acquisition > Social > Conversions] ex. e-newsletter signing up
Via Hootsuite we will generate a real-time report (boards) that measure in depth our social
media platforms performance. Such metrics will illustrate the success of content and how we
can reach new and existing audiences better
