I was asked recently what a ‘day in the life’ of a Social Media Analyst should be. I thought about it – and here’s my answer. I actually fleshed it out into a talk which I have given at conferences.

1) Listen – spend time listening to the social media space. What’s being said about you, your company, your brand, your products, or your competition?

2) Plan & Strategize – now that you know what’s out there, what strategies will you employ?

3) Execute – Execute your strategies

4) Interact – Ensure you interact with your audience. Be real. Be transparent.

* Iterate *

Sounds simple, yet it takes work & time to do properly. TrakVu can assist you with your efforts — just give us a call.
