Editor's Notes
- As Don Wright once says, “The world's greatest love letter is useless if it doesn't achieve the desired effect” In other words, if it doesn’t get you a date, or dinner, or sex or marriage – whatever your goal is, it really doesn’t matter how well written it is. What Don Wright is of course referring to is the need for all forms of measurement to start with a clearly articulated goal. In PR you can write the perfect press release, but if it doesn’t get picked up by the right outlet that actually reaches the people you’re trying to influence does it matter? So lets look at Social Media Engagement from that perspective. Impressions are the dating equivalent of a construction worker leering at the girls going by. Liking on Facebook is just a bit better. It’s so easy to hit that “like” button. No commitment, no involvement necessary. Heck you don’t even know if that person you’ve got your eye on is married, your cousin, a goat or of a different sexual preference. A recent Nielsen study showed that in one online campaign targeting women between the ages of 18-34, 55% of the impressions were actually served to men. So much for targeting. Followers on Twitter are a bit more engaged. When someone follows you on Twitter, or connects on Linked In or comments on your photos on Flickr, is essentially expressing a sufficient level of interest so that at least you know there is a possibility of a relationship. They may not be willing to have dinner with you yet, but at least you know they’re in the “eligible” category. You still don't have a clue if you’re really compatible. For all you know they may be willing to go out to dinner, but not at a place you can afford maybe they are delighted to go to dinner but she’s leaving next week to return home to Tanzania and needs a place to stay in the mean time. So you decide to move in or get engaged to see if you’re compatible. This is the social media equivalent of someone who repeatedly visits our blog, comments on your YouTube video or your photos on Flickr, engaging in a dialog on Facebook or Twitter. Small indications that they’re interested enough in what you have to say to stick around for a while. How soon you reach the next level really depends on the nature of your brand or cause. It may take weeks, months or even years of building a relationship just to get to that point of asking for commitment. But at some point they’ve moved from being a “friend” to being “the one.” So you put the ring on her finger. This is the social media equivalent of someone either registering for a newsletter, or downloading a White Paper, or attend a webinar. One way or the other by now you should have captured enough additional information to add them to add them to your CRM system so you can begin to track their progress towards purchase. After you’ve been living together or engaged for awhile, generally there is a moment, an event, or a happenstance that makes one think beyond the comfortable now to the committed future. It may be driven by an outside force or it may be internal, but in a relationship, you experience something that changes you enough to think about moving from friends with benefits to family planning. This is similar to what is happening with that prospect that has been happily sitting in your CRM system for months or even years, getting your newsletters, following you on Twitter. Paying attention but not paying money just yet. Then, one day, driven by a new job or a new boss or other changed circumstances – or a knock on the door from one of your competitors they have moved from consuming content to actually completing a purchase. This is where the health and strength of your relationship should pay off. Yours should be the trusted brand with the inside track. Even though the other guy may have the “cool shiny new tool” factor. Good relationships won’t make up for bad products, but they should give you an edge in a fair fight. This is why it is so important to not just measure the activity on your social media sites, but also the health of the relationships you are cultivating. So you pass the test, the invites go out, and the wedding planners come in. and the wedding day comes. But as anyone who has been married knows, the day after the wedding, a whole new relationship begins. There are kids, aunts, uncles, in-laws and you are now part of them all. For your organization or brand, this is the ultimate relationship. That state where your customer becomes your advocate and forgives you in a crisis, tells all their
- Where do I start? Is a question I get frequently, and my response always is “Don’t ask me, ask your stakeholders.” You may need to do some research before you jump in. That’s what listening really is, isn’t it? You need to know what keeps them up at night, where they go for information, what ELSE they’re seeing out there and what makes them act.
- Measurement is a comparative tool. You don’t know if your results are good or bad unless you can put them into context, either looking at them over time, or in comparison to a peer group. The most important entity to measure against is whatever keeps your bosses up at night.
- There really are only three times of tools in social media measurement If you want to measure messaging, positioning, themes, sentiment you need Content analysis If you want to measure awareness, perception, preference you need Survey research If you want to measure engagement, action, purchase: you need Web analytics If you want predictions and correlations you need two out of three
- The final step in the measurement process is to analyze your data and draw conclusions. Now most of you didn’t major in math, but there are people in your organizations that did, and that love statistics. Go find them. I call them the Abby because she is a hero in an American crime drama called NCIS. Even though the boss and the other star appear to solve all the crimes by their gut instinct, in reality it is Abby, the forensic scientist, and McGee the computer geek that really solve everything. SO you need to identify the Abby and McGees in your organization. Then when you have the data you need to ask So What at least three times to determine the real answers. Then look for what isn’t working, the failures, because that is the easiest way to improve performance. Then look at what the competition is doing and only after you’ve looked at all that data, can you start to look for the exceptional successes. You probably need to look at a 13-month time frame in order to spot trends and identify any seasonal abnormalities. From that vantage point you can figure out what worked and what didn’t and then move resources from what isn’t working to what is.
