Consideration for paid services
- why you are monitoring? - what insights / benefits do you want to gain?- listen / filter / fine tune – don’t track irrelevant issues- reporting – the frequency / detail / kpis - business as usual / ‘trip-wire’ alerts - which departments have a stake in this? - integration with other marketing / pr activity - external support – initial from provider; ongoing from agency - flow / process - logins and profiles- which provider is right for what you want to do?- historical data, bespoke modules, sentiment accuracy, speed of updates
