SOCIAL MEDIA LISTENING

KEEP YOUR FINGER ON THE PULSE

Social media listening is an indispensable tool for gaining insights into what your stakeholders think about you and fostering meaningful conversations with them. It involves monitoring social platforms for mentions of your business, competitors, products, and industry-specific keywords, transforming raw data into actionable intelligence. We monitor social channels diligently to understand how your brand and products are perceived by key audiences, including customers, clients, and target demographics.

By tracking relevant hashtags and keywords, we deepen our understanding of market trends and consumer behaviours. Analysing competitor social accounts provides further insights into audience sentiments towards competing brands and products. We also focus on cultivating a consistent brand voice for engaging interactions and ensuring prompt engagement with brand mentions, taking appropriate online and offline actions. Our approach includes handling complaints, providing crisis management support and leveraging insights from listening activities to provide informed business development recommendations.

Media coverage and reach:

  • Tracking and analysing media placements across relevant channels to quantify the reach and impact of earned media.
  • Align with KPIs such as brand awareness, reputation enhancement, lead generation, or customer engagement.

AMBITIOUS employs a robust approach to measuring the success of communications efforts. It’s different for each client because it’s tailored to your objectives and business goals. We adopt the AMEC (Association for the Measurement and Evaluation of Communication) framework which consists of seven elements: objectives, inputs, activities, outputs, outtakes, outcomes, and impact.

It is a holistic measurement that can be applied across various communication disciplines, including corporate and B2B communications, community relations, digital communications, and stakeholder engagement as well as media relations. We assess variables such as audience reach, message penetration, sentiment, and behavioural changes, alongside quantitative data to ensure that communications strategies align with broader business goals and deliver measurable value across all areas.
