Springboard to the next level of social engagement.

Benchmark your level of social media sophistication

Ramp up your revenues and drive down your costs.

With the prevalence of social media, many businesses have started to incorporate some of the basics by adding a Facebook page or a Twitter handle, but are at a loss to prove how its affecting the bottom-line. Part of that is because they don't realize where they are with respect to a continuum of what they could be doing.

I work with clients to benchmark their “As Is” state of social media initiatives and compare them to “Could Be” via best practices. With this insight, businesses can create world-class social media and digital presences and are more likely to monetize their investments when they accomplish higher levels of capabilities with their social media initiatives.

   

​The Social Maturity Curve shows the level of social media sophistication of companies as they climb from Learn to Listen, Engage, Analysis, and Optimized. KathyHerrmann.com provides the insight you need to make the climb.
