Social is for sharing and not for shopping.

17. Your website isn’t good enough.
It’s not a destination.
A website is 1 component of a larger online strategy.
You can have social outposts for discovery, but all roads
lead back to your website(s).
Social should be “with” not “instead of”.

Brands and businesses find the most value to measurement reports that are translated/formatted/organized in a way that illustrates how this influences the entire company (not just the channel or channels being reported on) e.g. sales, management, product development, customer service etc. etc.The more you can show within your reports, analytics, and recommendations that your digital channels provide value for the whole business and not just those digital silos, the more value they’ll find in the data in actually affecting their business as a whole (and this should translate into more budget, time, and resources for you and your team).
With the need for multiple blog posts per week and daily social media messages many marketing teams find themselves under-equipped to keep up with the content demands. If you are a B2B executive shift some of your paid advertising budget to content creation resources ASAP.
Create other metrics for conversions. Website visits.
1) Facebook looks at whether or not you’ve previously interacted with an author’s posts or whether or not your friends are engaging around those posts.2) If content is or isn’t engaged by your social graph and the network at large affects what you see and what you don’t see.3) EdgeRank also examines whether or not your have interacted with similar types of posts in the past, i.e. photos, videos, polls, etc.4) If content or page hosts have received complaints by other users, chances are that you will not see it.
