KPIs vs. diagnostic metrics
KPIs
Are we winning or losing?
• KPIs should align to the brand’s business objectives
• Are our social media efforts affecting behavior as we want?
Diagnostic Metrics
Which levers do we need to pull?
• Identify what changes need to be made to engagement strategy in order to improve KPI performance
• Are we executing our messaging strategy properly?
• Is our content resonating?
