Social Media Branding Social media channel design: • People use social media channels as search engines (i.e. Facebook search, YouTube search) • Would you want to show up in social search with a page/channel/account that is not customized and therefore does not showcase what your firm has to offer? No. So treat each one like a freestanding website, because each is its own digital asset. www.staceyeburke.com

  18. SOCIAL MEDIA REPORTING www.staceyeburke.com
  19. Monitor Your Metrics • Do all of your websites have active, current Google Analytics code? • Do you track social media Key Performance Indicators (KPIs)? • Do you conduct monthly, quarterly, and/or yearly reviews of your marketing metrics to adjust expenditures? www.staceyeburke.com
  20. Google Analytics Google Analytics and Webmaster Tools Mind Over Metrics = NO, you can’t guess better than the reports will tell you Know the basics so that you can have an intelligent conversation with your vendors: • Bounce Rate - the percentage of visitors who leave your site after only viewing one page • User Behavior - information on the behavior of your visitors while they are on your website • Acquisition – how web searchers come to find your site (AdWords, social media, organic search) www.staceyeburke.com
  21. Social Media: Monitoring and Metrics • Track metrics for social media just as you would for any expenditure. Those metrics can include: – Audience Growth/Overall Reach – Engagement – Donations – Subscriptions – Visits to Websites – Conversions – Influence www.staceyeburke.com
