How do you define engagement?
• It has been four years since the Advertising Research Foundation first promoted the concept of measuring "engagement“ to deal with the fact that media clutter is eroding the impact of a single exposure.
– http://www.clickz.com/3522616
•Agencies & Media companies talk about engagement as a metric for how consumers interact with ads or what they do as a result of ads
•For example: – "any action reflecting an experience or touch point with a brand,
product, group, or message”
– "take into account the people who seem to be actively requesting information from others, specifically those who are imploring actual companies for help.”

•#2 - Can you create and communicate a value proposition that encourages your current and potential customers to engage with your brand outside of paid media?
•#3 - Can you direct and shape that engagement in a way that drives your business forward in a measureable way?

Question #3: Does engagement drive ROI?
•If you had more customer reviews would more browsers convert to buyers? By what rate would conversion increase?
•If you had more reviews and other content would you be able to measure incremental SEO and social sharing traffic to quantify the value of that content?
•If your customers completed detailed profiles of themselves, tagged themselves in the context of every review and responded to surveys at a very high rate would that insight have quantifiable value?
•How much is it worth to you to have a customer recommend your brand to another customer? What if their recommendation was read thousands of times?
