What is it?
Social listening is the process of collecting conversation and content around various topics or audiences on social media channels.
How is it useful?
There are loads of potential workstreams that come from social listening. Some examples are:
- Research and Development
- Understanding an audience for a product launch
- Identifying trends and opportunities
- Creating up-to-the-minute social content
- Creating a social media strategy
- Creating a campaign strategy
- A deeper understanding of your community
- Identification of pain points
Why do I need it?
Using social listening to inform your work, whatever it is, means you’re drawing from up-to-the-minute data from real people, not made-up personas. You’re creating plans based on data, not just an idea. This allows you the best chance of success in the digital world.
Who is it for?
There are multiple applications, but my clients tend to be:
- Brands looking to launch on social media
- Businesses looking to understand their online audiences
- Agencies who want to win pitches
- People tasked with creating social media campaigns
- Brands who want to stay up to date with their customer trends
