Does your social media strategy feel disjointed? In the face of 2.8 billion active social media users, it’s easy to feel like your brand’s voice is barely audible above the din. If you’ve been wasting your time trying to be heard above the noise, we hate to break it to you, but you’re wasting your time. It turns out, the trick isn’t to drown out the onslaught of tweets, pins, and posts — it’s to listen and channel them into more engagements, conversions, reach, and ROI for your brand.

Our credibility slide – we work with leading businesses in B2C and B2B industries – from beauty to finance to media and gaming & nonprofits.
Transition slide
Do you feel like your social media strategy is somewhat disjointed? You’re not alone, and here is why.
Social media USED to be FREE marketing – not anymore!
80% of social media today is paid
185% growth in social advertising in past 3 years
Today … We need a new ridiculously unfair advantage
The supply of content has increased, while the demand has decreased – driving up the costs of social content
Only Top .1% of content gets shared (unicorns)
50% of content gets ZERO social shares
Organic social media is crashing and burning!
Branded FB posts only reach 2-6% of fans (HUGE volume of content)
3 Million Companies are now advertising on FB !
Do you feel like your social media strategy is somewhat disjointed? You’re not alone, and here is why.
Departments, Networks, & Data
Forrester: 25% Stat Source: Forrester (https://www.forrester.com/report/The+Evolved+CMO+In+2016/-/E-RES119909?objectid=RES119909#dialog-1494871332075-dialog)
Social media isn’t just for marketing anymore, and that’s GREAT – but it can be a challenge to communicate social data and share social responsibilities across so many departments
There are often many different solutions to this problem, which include technology, communication, and organizational structure
Instagram is the third most popular social media network, and more than half of its users follow brands. Yet 45% of marketers ignore the network entirely, despite social media demographics data. What gives?!
Instagram isn’t the only network where we marketers are woefully out of sync with our audiences. For instance, marketers turn to Twitter and LinkedIn at far greater rates than their audiences, while often ignoring trickier-to-use crowd favorites like Reddit or Pinterest. Too often, marketers invest time and resources in the wrong places — getting very little in return while missing big opportunities.
This shows that companies have a hard time keeping up with top networks, understanding the social market & where consumers are….
Sina Weibo – Chinese microblogging website.
Vkontakte – Russian social media site, and largest European social networking service
Finally – social strategies are disjointed due to the difficulty tracking Owned, Earned, and Paid social conversations holistically
Difficulty with data sources, tagging, attribution …. If you don’t understand impact, can’t quantify ROI
Even within the marketing department, the people handling Paid social often have totally different goals than the people handling publishing or engagement and Owned. Why is it so important for these people to talk to each other?
And rarely do you find one team looking holistically at owned, earned, and paid social conversations – requires a robust tool and social expertise.
Show you how to use the Social Trifecta to Amplify your Brand
Earned is the linchpin for tying together the 3 areas
Examples of how you can use Earned to drive Owned & Paid; Use Paid to drive better owned content; Scour Earned for insights/analysis
This is an example of Earned influencing Owned
Owned presence is strong on FB, but analyzing earned for this retailer shows people are talking about the brand much more on IG than FB. New opportunities for engagement and sales are uncovered.
Show the true value of all your efforts – if content from owned echos on earned, you can quantify the ROI
See who’s talking you about the most on social
Are they topics you already know about
Inform content & promotion/distr strategy
Brand tracks which departments garner earned activity by network to learn where to post content most effectively.
Fans like seeing Fashion posts, but not on Facebook.
Reduced fashion-related posts on organic owned media for Facebook and increased it on IG.
Turn Earned into Owned --
With insights from Earned social, optimize Owned social with content curation.
People trust people – ADD STAT
Use your platforms to lift up those already talking about you – rather than just talking about yourself
Amazon looked at Earned Media and selected top performing posts and used them to create a campaign before holidays.
Competitors earning mentions outside of earned media might be hosting live events, launching TV campaigns.
Competitors getting a lot of interactions on owned media might be spending a lot of money on paid social posts.
Tracking both earned & owned in a dynamic format helps show brand reputation levels.

In 2013 the company had allocated 15% of its media budget for digital channels and this number increased significantly to 30% in 2016. They have a 40% marketshare in earned if you include their Maybelline brand.
