This document discusses social media as a "search prism" that influences the discovery, participation, and activation phases of a customer's journey. It presents Performic's approach to social search optimization, which involves optimizing a brand's presence on search engines, websites, social networks, and paid media to drive discovery, encouraging participation through engaging content and community management, and activating customers with social signals, analytics and targeted campaigns. The key is asking the right questions to understand how social media influences the customer and optimize the experience across channels.

Editor's Notes
Where can I find your brand? How easy is it to filter results and look for information? Are you optimized and integrated for social? What platforms are you active on?
How are you excelling participation and performance in the digital space? How is the network reacting? What type of content & experiences drive customers to engage?
What are you doing to ensure continued word of mouth? What does success look like? How are you tracking KPIs? What is your strategy for re-contact and amplification?

(Increased data available from about 40 to 70 fields)API partners are now using data to provide additional performance metrics to clients. They are still working through this however. I almost feel that Facebook just continues to throw data out there to see what marketers can do with it.
