An exclusive, live webinar from Social Media Today
January 15th, 2013 at 12pm ET/9am PT
How can you conclusively demonstrate the return on your social media investment? Research performed for The Social Customer Engagement Index 2012 revealed that two of the biggest obstacles in engaging with customers on social networks were management buy-in (31%) and determining ROI (28%) – and of course, management is more likely to buy in if the payoff is clear.
But the path to social media ROI is highly variable, depending on your business, your market, your customers and your company culture. And being able to quantify any investment through ROI is also key in justifying your social media budget ‘ask’.
Join us for a debate on defining, and implementing measurable ROI to every kind of businesses. Our experts will discuss:
- Building engagement with customers, establishing tie-ins to purchasing and reducing costs of customer service.
- Is calculating ROI for social media even possible? If not, what’s a suitable substitute?
- Which ROI-oriented answers do practitioners need to prepare to support their arguments?
- Which analytics will help a business determine true ROI given its particular market?
- Key case studies showing how successful groups approached ROI when faced with these questions
