NewMR Social Media Research Event, 9 October 2012, Session 2
Conclusions
and
Recommenda:ons
1. Listening
to
SM
is
a
must!
2. But
it
is
a
blunt
and
uncalibrated
tool
3. Iden:fying
who
you
are
listening
to
is
important
4. Social
media
can
be
used
in
conjunc:on
with
surveys
5. To
work
out
what
is
real
and
how
big
it
is
