Social media can be a tricky business. On one hand, it is a great thing: you are sharing your wisdom with your audience, absorb other people’s wisdom, engaging in conversation with people inside and outside you industry, getting involved in your community and much more. On the other hand, as a marketer you know that the investment should be justified. You need to show results for the time and effort you invest. In order to get satisfying results – you need to get your audience to become your customers. You need to convince them to consume the product or service you sell. But how will you know that what you are doing is effective? And more important, how will you justify this expense in time and effort? You need to keep score.

You are all invited
Friday, June 18th, 2010So your company has decided to have an event. The dates are set and you are in charge, among thousands other tasks, of sending invitations by email to your company’s relevant mailing list. You send all those email, inviting all those people and one by one, the RSVPs (or polite declines) are starting to come in.
But, as the set date fast approaches, as you compare the amount of responses you get to the amount of the invitations you sent, you find out that you have about 80% response rate. What happened to the rest of them? Did they even get your invitation? Did it bounce? Was it referred to their ‘junk’ folder to be lost among the junk mail to be deleted without being read?
