Measurements & Signals

Monitoring 101

Basic Terms

Metric Description / Notes

Mentions Obvious – How many times was your brand mentioned?

Sentiment Positive? Negative? Neutral?

Share of Voice What % of the overall buzz about your market do you have?

Influencers Who is important to your industry? Your customers? Who can influence opinion?

Velocity How fast is the conversation spreading? How is it picking up steam?

Reach How far has this conversation gone? Who’s picked it up?

Measurements & SignalsLimitations:

• Impossible for any one tool to measure everything

• Data is not absolute

• Manual Review constantly needed

• Closed Profiles

• Keywords

The numbers alone NEVER give the full story

“Successful call on 3rd try…. Nice network AT & T!”

“The new iphone is SICK!!!”

“The Fallacy of Sentiment”

You need to fill in the blanks………

“Use Context of an Action”

“What’s my motivation?”

“Like” a Company Motivation

“At Five Guys inhaling a cheeseburger”

“Gut bombs…. Awesome!”“The Cajun Fries kick ass!”“Gotta get back there”“Your doctor’s gonna get rich!”
