Why we’re here● “What gets measured, gets managed.”
- Peter Drucker
● “What gets monitored & measured is what matters.”- Mark Farmer
A few key points● Why Monitor?● Why measure?● How to monitor & measure
Why monitor?● In 2014 your brand is what your customers and
audience say it is.● It’s important to listen to the conversations they’re
having about you and your brand, especially online.● Doing so allows you to identify issues, serve customers,
handle crises, keep tabs on the competition, and more.● All this listening gives you actionable business
intelligence and marketing insights.
Why measure?● Metrics = results.● Since metrics are objective and empirical, they remove
subjectivity, opinion and conjecture from business processes. ● That de-personalizes business processes, which makes
decision-making easier and smoother.● Metrics also keep you honest:
o There are “lies, damned lies & statistics,” but people vote with their clicks. That’s essential in cutting through clutter, noise and anecdotal data.
o Metrics don’t care about politics or opinion, and can’t be convinced to tell another story. They’re unbiased that way.
