What do you mean by return on investment (ROI)?
• In the traditional marketing sense, ROI means for every dollar invested, a measurable
return can be calculated.
• Back when marketing was predictable and the channels were few, this was a science.
• Invest more in channel X and watch the sales flow in.
• In social media, this measurement is about as reliable as a print magazine’s
circulation, but estimating your social media ROI may be necessary in the decision
process.
• This presentation provides examples of spend and estimated ROI across key
industries.
