Editor's Notes
- #3: The principles that you apply to decide what to measure: Remember this can be measured in any way. Most will be by GA but Measuring social media success/impact is useful too Car dashboard Image to begin with ? Fading into the background as the text appears ?
- #4: Avoid Global averages / Do not worry about accuracy +- 5% If you do not know where you are going any road will do. Add some suggestions as to what KPIs they might use Link to my blog post on measuring web site visits from social media `what matters in your organisation ?`
- #6: `good content` does not mean much as good means different things to different audiences. More – applies to both relevant and contenet. What is your favourite `service` brand ? One that you recommend to friends ? What makes it a favourite – service probably. The better you serve you existing customers the more likely they are to `engage` with the cause and brand And hence donate. If someone at MnS will not help you when you need it you will not be keen to give them your money. Set up PROFILES in GA for each site section
