In God we trust.  All others must bring data. W. Edwards Deming
In God we trust.  All others must bring data. There is no “data” confirming that Deming actually said this. W. Edwards Deming
“On the web, (this quote) has been widely attributed to Deming and Robert W. Hayden; however Prof. Hayden told us that he can claim no credit for this quote, and ironically we could find no ‘data’ confirming Deming actually said this.” The Elements of Statistical Learning, 2nd Edition, Preface Hastie, Tibshirani, Friedmand

A Brief Aside Re: Conversions Two Types of Marketing Channels Intent Generating channels build consumer awareness and interest, creating an intention to purchase a product. Intent Harvesting channels capture consumer intent to purchase and drive them to the cash register. Two Types of Conversion Tracking Multi-touch tracking attributes revenue to all of the channels that touched the consumer on their path through the funnel. Last-touch tracking attributes all of the revenue for a purchase to the last channel that touched the customer prior to the sale.
Data-Driven Social Media Marketing Practicing
The Social Media Marketing Funnel Your goal as a marketer is to move people down the funnel. Key Insight: every step is measurable. Awareness:  Fans Interest:  Clicks Action:  Conversions
Measuring Awareness: Fans Raw numbers and trends are easy but not very instructive. Compare with something real to make judgments: B2BCompare total fan count to lead count. Aim for 1:1 ratio. Consumer ProductsCompare fan count to customer count. Aim for 1:1 ratio. Newspapers & BlogsCompare fan count to website uniques. Aim for 15%. How many fans do you have? Fan count is important, but it’s just one of many numbers that lead to success in social media marketing. Fan / Follower counts are important for normalizing other social media marketing metrics!
Measuring Interest: Clicks Metrics in Action Increase in clicks is driven by increase posting frequency Increase in clicks is driven by more engaging content Decrease in clicks is driven by less engaging content Decrease in posts is drive by fewer posts—easy to fix!
Measuring Action Requires Attribution Social media builds awareness and interest in your brand but doesn’t usually lead directly to sales… …but you can still measure its impact on revenue! The secret: use multi-touch conversion tracking.
Measuring Action:  Conversions KPIs Revenue Conversion count Revenue per conversion Conversion rate Key Questions What is your call to action strategy? What offers work best? Are you using landing pages?

  8. Eric – explain context of the data.Jason – suggest the action: use a service to automate posts via RSS. (Note: most RSS posts publish immediately, are not scheduled. Might need to delineate in the next slide.) if possible, schedule homegrown content to post multiple times. consider publishing content from other RSS feeds, can filter by tag or category.

  10. Eric – explain the graph.Jason – explain the takeaways:Timeliness premium when it comes to transactions. The further into the future Argyle users scheduled posts, the less influence the posts had on revenue.Suggests a few things:- Marketers aren’t scheduling posts with a strong call-to-action- Followers are less responsive to “planned” content.- Time-sensitive call-to-action is compelling

  14. Eric - We’ve walked through a few examples that illustrate how data can drive social media marketing performance and – more importantly – marketing decisions. But we’re just talking about aggregates. The story gets more interesting when you start to look at your data in a similar fashion.
  15. Eric - We’ve walked through a few examples that illustrate how data can drive social media marketing performance and – more importantly – marketing decisions. But we’re just talking about aggregates. The story gets more interesting when you start to look at your data in a similar fashion.
  16. Eric - Social media marketing is a specialized version of marketing. Marketing is a business function. Business functions to drive outcomes. So by the transitive property you learned in 7th grade algebra, social media marketing is ultimately about driving business outcomes.Jason - Every step is measurable. You can’t optimize a two-step process - by breaking your social audience into segments, you can more easily move people down the funnel and measure your efforts.
  17. Eric – audience size is the obvious place to start, but follower counts are often a polarizing metric.Jason – commentary re: follower counts, importance of quality, ratios as a smart way to normalize and benchmark follower data.
