*Preface*
Often termed as the ‘new gold,’ the vast amount of social media data can be
employed to identify which customer behavior and actions create more value.
Nevertheless, many brands find it extremely hard to define what the value
of social media is and how to capture and create value with social media
data.
In Creating Value with Social Media Analytics, we draw on developments in
social media analytics theories and tools to develop a comprehensive social
media value creation framework that allows readers to define, align,
capture, and sustain value through social media data. The book offers
concepts, strategies, tools, tutorials, and case studies that brands need
to align, extract, and analyze a variety of social media data, including
text, actions, networks, multimedia, apps, hyperlinks, search engines, and
location data. By the end of this book, the readers will have mastered the
theories, concepts, strategies, techniques, and tools necessary to extract
business value from big social media that help increase brand loyalty,
generate leads, drive traffic, and ultimately make sound business
decisions. Here is how the book is organized.
