social_media_roiLast month, we reported on a survey that found that 84% of social media programs don’t measure return on investment (ROI). The comments in that post indicated that a lot of individuals and businesses want to be able to measure the ROI of their social media strategies and campaigns, but they don’t know where to start.

Companies and executives are finally beginning to really jump on the social media bandwagon, and that’s fantastic. However, for social media to fully work (for everyone), businesses and brands need to be able to evaluate the impact their social media use is having, both positive and negative.

This guide is designed to help you track down those pieces and determine the ROI you’re getting on social media.Last month, we reported on a survey that found that 84% of social media programs don’t measure return on investment (ROI).
