social media roi measurement #getrealchat #smmw14

One of the top questions of the past few years throughout the social ecosystem has got to be “can you measure the ROI of social media?” The answer is yes, you can. However, it takes effort and a combination of the right tools, knowledge and methodologies to do such. It requires both art and science.

Many marketing and business leaders find they waste months or even years trying to “do” social media with little business return. The truth is we need to stop trying to “do” social media, and instead focus on business results and being socially relevant. A shiny, beautiful Twitter background means nothing if the tweets within are not providing value for your audience.

It is critical to align social media to business goals and objectives where social can have a positive impact.
