So many businesses and brands are spending large budgets on marketing strategies and creative campaigns but they are not getting effective insights in return. Without analysis and without insights, there is nothing to drive and improve the marketing strategy and most of all to achieve financial viability.
This is where social listening comes into play.
So what is social listening?
To sum it up, social listening is the process of monitoring your brand’s social media channels for conversations and mentions of your brand regarding specific keywords, topics, phrases, competitors and industries. It is then analysing this real-time data and taking the insights you discover to capitalise on emerging opportunities and tackle obstacles.
What can social listening deliver and help with?

Proactively respond to potential crisis situations and manage any crisis that occurs by taking prompt action
Improve your content strategy by getting the right message to the right audience at the right time
Get to know your audience better by understanding the needs, wants, dislikes and behaviours of your customer
Customer service is officially online and 80% of consumers don’t tag a brand when mentioning them online so be there for the good, the bad and the funny
