16. Introducing BuzzAngles
The Digital world has given rise to a new breed of influencers, opinion leaders, critics or in some
cases just a voice wanting to be heard. It is a complex world and most times replete with jargon
or terms which are not easily understood. Having said that, brands are built or (sometimes)
destroyed overnight as opinions or experiences are floating freely for anyone who is willing to
lend an ear.
In order words the digital world is a necessary evil and listening, tracking and most importantly
measuring the impact on the brand has become very crucial and complex at the same time.
Making sense out of the data on a common platform is also a huge challenge.
BuzzAngles focuses on measuring what is relevant along with detailed analytics on the brand. It
keeps you informed about the dynamics of the digital medium, by Monitoring, Capturing and
Analyzing the information. It delivers knowledge that can be visualized and represented via web
