Summary:
The highest engagement rate occurs on Instagram despite having the the lowest amount of
followers among the networks. Average weekly activity is highest on Twitter due to frequent
replies to consumers, but Chipotle is very inconsistent with the number of likes and retweets for
their content. While Facebook has the most follower count, engagement is varies among posts.

MEASUREMENTS AND
REPORTING RESULTS
Qualitative KPIS
• Sentiment Analysis
– After a thorough analysis of our social media networks (Facebook,
Twitter, and Instagram) via share, comments and likes that promote
engagement with consumers reveal the following:
• Positive sentiments include: consumers are more likely to view and share
videos, they are more likely to respond if a hashtag is created, usage of Google
AdWords brought traffic to our website and Facebook page, and Instagram is
creating a steady following due to visual content.
• Negative sentiments include: Long lines at Chipotle stores, pricing, and
people still skeptical about the food due to the E.Coli outbreak
FUTURE ACTIONS
• Based on the data received, I would suggest that
we post the content curated on Instagram to other
social media platforms and continue to make
visually appealing and comical videos that people
can share
• Continue to use Google Adwords, sponsored posts
on Instagram, and trending hashtags
• Create coupons that can be found by having
consumers follow one of our social media networks

  • 21. MEASUREMENTS AND REPORTING RESULTS Qualitative KPIS • Sentiment Analysis – After a thorough analysis of our social media networks (Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram) via share, comments and likes that promote engagement with consumers reveal the following: • Positive sentiments include: consumers are more likely to view and share videos, they are more likely to respond if a hashtag is created, usage of Google AdWords brought traffic to our website and Facebook page, and Instagram is creating a steady following due to visual content. • Negative sentiments include: Long lines at Chipotle stores, pricing, and people still skeptical about the food due to the E.Coli outbreak
  • 22. FUTURE ACTIONS • Based on the data received, I would suggest that we post the content curated on Instagram to other social media platforms and continue to make visually appealing and comical videos that people can share • Continue to use Google Adwords, sponsored posts on Instagram, and trending hashtags • Create coupons that can be found by having consumers follow one of our social media networks
