Social Media Auditing.


Social Media Auditing entails evaluating a brand’s activities on their Social Media platform(s) taking note of what they are doing right at the same time also noting what they can improve/introduce to make them more relevant. Social Media Auditing can also include auditing of the brands website as it also plays a role on social media especially driving traffic i.e.  E-commerce ‘customer(s) views an Ad on Facebook/Instagram/ Twitter then theirs’s a link from the post that directs them to the website.’

The auditing can be carried out either by an individual or a team whom can be the in-house Social Media Marketing team of the brand or an outsourced Social Media Marketing team. As a Social Media Marketing team the mandate is creating a Social Media strategy, execute it and eventually be able to show results based on the marketing goals set.
 
Once all stages of social Media Marketing are carried out it’s important to analyze how people have engaged with your brand’s content. The analysis can be done daily/weekly/monthly depending on the team. However, it’s also good to reconvene after 3 or 6 months after implementation of strategy to;
  • Distinguish if the set goals are being achieved. Some set goals can include; brand awareness, increase conversions. They can be measured through no. of followers, no. of users that sign up for newsletter, sales that result from online.
  • Identify which of the content shared is most engaging.
  • Identify which Social Media platforms are resulting into conversions for the business.
  • In case of any new techniques in the market that can be incorporated onto the Social Media strategy.
  • Brain storm and share other new ideas that can help position the brand even better on Social Media.

Social Media is changing by the day; some techniques being used today will probably be redundant in the next few years. Once you notice your brand isn’t achieving it’s set goals then it’s a sign that an evaluation is necessary.

Thank you for taking the time to read.

Every marketing channel a business chooses to grow into is definitely driven by certain objective's; create brand awareness, customer acquisition, customer retention. However to be able to achieve all this there has to be content readily available for your client/customer otherwise how will you keep people on your platforms engaged.   Social Media Marketing is solely built on the content you create and your ability to engage with your existing and potential client(s).  Most reliable channel I would recommend to startups because once you've got content and make posts consistently you are making it easier for people who would be interested in your brand to find you.
