                           Volume: The number of mentions of your brand across all social media
                               channels. How many times are your messages, URLs, leadership, and
                               campaigns commented on, shared and tweeted about?
                           Frequency: The pace of references to your brand. Does activity occur
                               around specific events such as conferences and hill days, or do you
                               have a steadier, more consistent following.
                           Sentiment: The tone of reactions to your brand. Is the conversation
                               positive, negative, or neutral? Is it changing over time? Does it vary by
                               issue?
                           Influence: The potential impact of the individuals and groups driving the
                               conversation. Who are they and what level of real sway does their
                               perspective have on their communities? Are you followed by
Advocacy




                               disconnected individuals or associated advocates?
                           Reach: The penetration of your engagement efforts into your target
                               audiences and influencer groups. Is your organization being talked
                               about by the right people? Are your messages being seen and read?

Intermediate: Frequency
Intermediate: Sentiment
• Qualitative, not quantitative
• Avoid looking at metrics about the
  number of negative comments per
  month
• Instead:
  – What was the result of the comment?
  – Did your community come to your
    defense?
  – Did they use your messaging to do it?
Intermediate: Sentiment
• Need a human determination, not a tool’s

    find you

  story you would want top leadership
  at your organization reading.
