Three Phases of Social Intelligence Collecting data is essential, but it’s only the first step in building value. A real point of differentiation is the ability to convert that into actionable insights. Semantical analysis is part of this, but so is inclusion of multi-channel data. Social conversations take place in myriad channels.

Learning Environment Cost Analysis Indices Duration / Intensity Sentiment Volume Syndicated Data

Reach Reach is an important concept for social media analysis because it helps bridge social measures into the parlance of traditional marketing – namely the notion of households. To calculate this, we analyze each mention whereby for a given author, in a given channel we attribute how many eye balls (pairs of them to be specific) potentially saw that mention. This accounts for the likes of an Ashton Kutcher (famous for being the first celebrity to 1M followers) being far greater than the typical Joe. Factor (tied to specific channel) For each mention: Mention Author x

Social Engagement Index (SEI) Estimates the social reach of a brand by taking the count of mentions and factoring based upon the popularity of the author (as described under reach). Indexing then enable easy comparison between the brands. This is accomplished by dividing a brands potential reach by the overall average and finally by multiplying by 100. Following, any score of less than 100 indicates a brand that scored below the average.

Social Sentiment Engagement Index (SSEI) Similar calculation to the SEI, but adds an additional element of sentiment whereby reach score is adjusted positively for a good comment, but negatively for a poor one. Again the brands have been indexed against 100, but here a brand can actually achieve a negative score. Anything less than 100 indicates a below average sentiment, while a score less than 0 indicates a net negative sentiment. ∑ Mention x Reach x (+/- 1) Average Advertisers x 100

Cost Per Social Impression (CPSM) A commodity that nearly all marketers deal in is impressions. Tracing back to roots in RFM we’ve been schooled on building awareness by efficiently generating impressions. It’s not the overall spend that’s important, but the cost per impression. With the CPSM model what we’ve done is take each brands media spend and divided by their total reach. Like other CPx models understanding relative performance will take time to develop historical benchmarks. Looking at the Super Bowl alone brands that generated better than $.96 per impression beat the average. Brand Social Reach Media Spend

Longevity Index Decay is another important factor for brand advertising. Stated more simply, this refers to the declining effect a given ad has moving forward in time after its execution. This additional reach can also be termed the long tail. For this measure we compare the slope of decline in the tails for each brand compared to the average slope for all brands. Indexed at 1, the lower the score indicates the more rapid the drop off, while the higher number points to a fatter tail, and more extended engagement. ∑ Brand Mentions Game Game + 30 Average Mentions Game Game + 30

The greatest insight in the world is not valuable if it is not available to the right hands. A key ingredient to making social intelligence impactful on marketers is the isolation and elevation of key points. RESENT 1. 2.

Brand Scoreboards CPSM Lists out brand spend, and their cost per social impression. Social Reach Shows the raw estimated eye balls reached by mentions and ranks versus other advertisers. SEI / SSEI Combined, tabular listing of all brands scores with specific brand called out with view finder. Coach’s Corner Breakdown the measures and what they mean to your business with our own in-house coach Percy. Rank Highlights the brands relative positioning on the social sentiment engagement index. Frequency Of all the relevant conversations monitors how many pertained to specific brand. Theme Cloud The classic tag cloud where the size of the word indicates frequency of relative mentions. Comparative Reach Breaks down the audience by their social engagement versus peers, and versus brand average.

Summary Social Intelligence can move the needle for brands when it’s fully addressed in all 3 phases. The social channel provides the opportunity for significant mirroring of media campaigns Successful campaigns can expand awareness and can nearly double the reach of the primary channel Social media can slow decay and extend the lifespan of a campaign and dramatically impact overall performance Sentiment plays an important role – pointing to the power of the emotional brand connection , even in the social space
