Content Shouldn’t be a Guessing Game – To create relevant content, you must know what people say and what they share. 3. Lost Time = Opportunity Cost – Building reports is not an activity that impacts your funnel. You should spend that time finding and applying insights that will have an increased impact. 4. The Time is Now – It’s no longer a question of does social impact the whole funnel, it’s a question of how much.

Automatically adds a unique tracking code onto the end of every website visitor’s URL. jcrew.com/#sm.1atva211dacdhhvd91jt0dlaf58 JavaScript goes onto your website and does two things:1. Identifies referrer, user agent, and driving URL. • When visitors copy and paste the URL into social, it will contain the unique tracking code. Then, when visitors come from that URL to the site, we are able to identify the source, including if coming from private messaging. • When your brand posts, just copy and paste the URL, including the auto-populated tracking code, into your posts.

Editor's Notes
- #3: But first, let’s recap our previous conversation.
- #4: Here’s what I took away from our previous conversation. Did I do a good job of summarizing the goals for social at your organization and the opportunities you have to grow?
- #5: Here’s a look at how your current toolset covers the funnel.
- #6: Here’s a look at how your current toolset covers the funnel.
- #7: Social’s Role in the Customer Journey Has Changed. In 2012, social was just about brand awareness. Today, Inc. 500 executives say social is the #1 channel with potential to impact sales in 2017. 2012: http://www.marketingcharts.com/online/marketers-lack-standard-social-media-roi-metric-20834/attachment/wildfire-benefits-of-social-media-marketing-jan12gif/ 2016: http://www.marketingcharts.com/online/inc-500-execs-see-socials-potential-in-driving-sales-but-fret-about-roi-74833/
- #8: What does this mean? Today, social impacts every point in the marketing funnel.
- #9: But the tools social marketers use to analyze social have failed to keep-up, and they are forced to piece together a disjointed story across multiple tools. We call this the Frankenstein Funnel.
- #10: And the Frankenstein Funnel is problematic. When marketers try to jam together multiple tools to get a full-funnel view, the tools inevitably don’t fit together, they get conflicting data points, and they have gaps in measurement that hold them back from determining what types of posts, campaigns, and more will drive their channel to its full potential.
- #11: How do we know social is being held back from its full-funnel potential?
- #12: Because when you compare apples to apples, full-funnel measurement in 2017 looks nearly identical to how it did in 2013. Still, less than 1 in 5 companies have a quantitative understanding of social’s impact on their business. 2017: https://www.slideshare.net/christinemoorman/the-cmo-survey-highlights-and-insights-february-2017/ 2013: http://www.marketingcharts.com/uncategorized/cmos-traditional-media-ad-spend-to-dip-digital-to-march-on-36248/
- #13: For social to finally reach its potential, it requires a new solution with a full-funnel approach, which is what we’ve done at Simply Measured.
- #14: Simply Measured is the only full-funnel social analytics solution. Optional: In the old world, you had the Frankenstein funnel, patching together different tools to help you understand different points in the funnel. In many cases, you may have been missing an arm or a leg and been totally blind to social’s impact at certain points in the funnel. With Simply Measured, we’ve brought the entire funnel into a single solution.
- #15: At Simply Measured we believe: Data Shouldn’t be Hard – Hunting for metrics is not fun and it’s not strategic, and frankly, it’s not what you signed up for when you decided to be a marketer. Content Shouldn’t be a Guessing Game – You should be able to completely understand your audience’s interests and what compels them to consume your content, not just based on what they say online, but also based on what they do with your content. When you lose time, it’s an opportunity cost – Building reports is a necessary part of every marketers’ job, but it isn’t an activity that impacts your funnel. Shouldn’t you be spending your time finding and applying insights that impact the business, rather than building reports? Lastly, The Time is Now – In 2017, it’s no longer a question of does social impact the whole funnel, it’s a question of how much, and even more, how can you increase the impact on the funnel.
- #16: (Simply Measured is the only full-funnel social analytics solution.) With Simply Measured, you' start building more engaged communities and convert them to customers by combining full-funnel insights from: What people talk about on social, What your brand and your competitors do on social, What people share through digital word-of-mouth - including through private messaging, and How content shared from your website results in traffic, leads, and revenue. Plus, we provide automated social reporting based on industry best practices, so you gain back the time you need to apply these full-funnel insights. Let’s discuss the products in our solution best matched to your needs.
- #51: Simply Measured has partnered with over half of the Interband 100. While we work with many of the world’s largest brands, we also work with many SMBs and agency partners, which is why we have built our solution to match the needs of many different types and sizes of businesses. If you are a large enterprise, we have experience working with large organizations like yours If you are an SMB, we have the solution for you today and are ready to scale with you as you grow If you are an agency, we are ready to partner with you as you service clients of any type or size
- #54: This unattributable activity amongst consumers is called dark social. In simple terms, “dark social” is social shares and traffic that can’t be measured by traditional website or social analytics. This results in an inflated count of “Direct” traffic in your web analytics. In some cases, as much as 50% of what is being reported as ‘Direct’ traffic is actually coming from dark social. Comes as a result of consumers sharing URLs with one another through private social channels. Traffic from social network mobile apps may also fail to pass a referrer in some instances.
- #55: Dark social
- #56: How visitors got to your site (owned, earned, or dark), and the acts and conversions they complete on your website. Similar to the way web analytics works, except it is able to detect dark social traffic by giving every site visitor a unique URL. Automatically gives every visitor a unique URL by auto-appending a “hash fragment” onto the end of each visitors’ URL. By giving every visitor a unique URL, it allows us to determine if a visitor to your site came through a different unique URL assigned to a different site visitor. No change required to publishing workflow. Compatible with link shorteners. No impact on SEO and non-factor in terms of site load speeds (sub 100 millisecond asynchronous JavaScript)
- #58: Ad hoc questions= Common questions What questions are you trying to answer? Complex? Speed plus flexibility means no more barriers between you and the answers you need. The unified data model of the Social Analytics API makes it possible to ask complex cross-channel questions and integrate the answers directly into your data visualization tools. The same flexibility you have with analyzing your own content can be done on competitors’ as well Looking to extract message themes are craft campaign segments in your data, you can even query for posts containing certain words or hashtags and analyze the performance Gather insights into who your followers are and how active they are on your social properties (What are you dying to know, that you can’t ask now)
- #59: The Social Analytics API puts out simple to ingest JSON, so you can analyze and visualization the data in any tool of your choice. In fact, if you are a Tableau user, you can even use our Web Connector and be up-and-running in minutes… no engineering resources required. Not a Tableau user? It is compatible with any ETL process consuming JSON, and we have services packages available should you need help getting set-up.
