o2 and 4G
In the social media monitoring o2 was one of the main men:ons An omni used to explore preferred network? o2 = 32% Amongst non-‐o2 people an open-‐end asked – “Why?”
9% cited 4G concerns
The topic was suggested via SM, but validated and quan:fied via a survey
Speaker: Joanne Woolmer, Vision Critical, London UK NewMR Social Media Research Event, 9 October 2012, Session 2
Conclusions and Recommenda:ons
1. Listening to SM is a must!
2. But it is a blunt and uncalibrated tool
3. Iden:fying who you are listening to is important
4. Social media can be used in conjunc:on with surveys
5. To work out what is real and how big it is
