“In a competitive world, organizations are realizing that only people can brand products or services – that we are not just selling a branded product, but a mass of branded people who support and deliver.”

Social Media Business Measurement: Popular assertions/beliefs vs Dell findings to date:

38

Popular notions about Social Media

Our Findings

Works only for Consumer Impacts each of the Dell Businesses: Consumer, Public, SMB, LE and Services

Relevant only for “top of the funnel” – good for brand awareness, not effective at acquisition

Impacts every part of the marketing funnel. Being harnessed for lead gen and driving conversion

Cannot impact Brand building Social listening, support and research content establishes brand credibility.Can be measured (Social Net Advocacy)

Social Media ROI cannot be measured as a business metric – is more like PR – can “assist”, but cannot be tied to revenue

Run-the-business metrics can be applied on Social Media and integrated into business operations. Has been tied to Consideration and Revenue

Facebook is not as effective as email in driving retention / repeat visits

Facebook pages are effective for doing business
