Ann Michaels & Associates used SafetyNet, a social media monitoring service, to determine which of three selected retailers has the most online buzz surrounding its brand.
Using the analytical reports that complement SafetyNet, we took a closer look at what types of conversations people are having, the age demographics for each brand, as well as the overall sentiment of the information collected.

Case Study AnalysisCase Study AnalysisGeographyGeography
When possible, we are able to collect data about the geographical location of the peopleconversing online. The data is compiled on a map, with pushpins designating sources ofconversation. The larger the pushpin, the more conversation is coming from thatgeographical area. There were some general findings from this analysis:
IKEA has the strongest volume of conversation on the East Coast, California, and Texas Both IKEA and Pottery Barn had conversations spread evenly across the country, whereas
Crate & Barrel’s conversations were more concentrated on the East Coast
The following slides show conversations by geographical locationfor each retailer included in this study.

Case Study AnalysisCase Study AnalysisSentiment ReportSentiment Report
Sentiment refers to the tone of content for each result collected. Sentiment ranges from positive to negative, and neutral results are collected as well. Neutral results include informational pieces, notification of upcoming events and promotions, and similar information.
For each retailer, the majority of collected data is neutral with regard to sentiment, with very few negative results found. This is a positive finding, as it does not appear that there are many negative conversations happening for any of these retailers.
Charts reflecting the sentiment of data collected for each retailer can be found on the following slide.
