How do you measure success in social media? Hint: it's not by how often you post on Twitter. Rather, it's by knowing the approach with the highest ROI.

Are you tracking your efforts effectively? Do you know how to parse the data? Does your strategy align with business goals?

Join us next week at Social Media Analytics, an intense half-day conference focused on increasing ROI through smart measurement in social media. Social Media Analytics convenes major brands, technology solutions providers, marketers, and experts from academia and politics to discuss successful social media strategy. The event takes place Nov. 1, 2011, at the Helen Mills Theater in New York City.

Hear from Johnson & Johnson and PepsiCo on their strategies and goals. Watch Klout, Clickable, and Shoutlet demo the latest tools for measuring and improving your effectiveness on Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, search, and more. Network with industry colleagues over coffee and cocktails.

How Do You Cut Down on Data Overload?

As the world grows more connected, the pile of data grows higher. Metrics are multiplying as fast as Web users, mobile devices, and social media members. Ever been in a meeting with a chart that shows rapid growth in Twitter followers or Facebook fans -- without linking those results with strategic objectives? Or, more simply, have you studied a graph or list of data -- or several dozen -- until the number and labels began to blur? Christopher Frank and Paul Magnone, authors of "Drinking from the Fire Hose: Making Smarter Decisions Without Drowning in Information," will be speaking at Social Media Analytics on getting smarter about data management. Even data mavens may hone their techniques.

How Should Social Media Influence Your Content Strategy?

Move over, SEO. Now there's sharing, liking, friending, tweeting, and many more ways for your content to reach potential customers. How do you build the power of social media into content strategy? We're giving this question a close look with an amazing group of speakers at Social Media Analytics, including:

  • Jim Bankoff, CEO, SB Nation (pictured)
  • Chris Copeland, CEO, GroupM Search, Americas
  • Dina Freeman, Social Media Director, BabyCenter (Johnson & Johnson)
  • David Kidder, CEO, Clickable
  • Mike Lazerow, CEO, Buddy Media
  • Bill Lederer, CEO, Kantar Video

How Do You Find Out What People Are Saying In Real-Time About You?

Social is the canary in the coal mine. When bad news hits, the Twittersphere is abuzz with reaction long before major news outlets. It's the same with your service or product: any negative experience is an opportunity for a social-media shout-out from the consumer. Proactive firms need to be following real-time developments to prevent reputation or sales damage. (Just ask JetBlue about keeping customers happy.) Trending search terms will also reveal unfolding events. But how do you follow the real-time clickstream and always-on chatter? Peter Stern, CEO of Bit.ly, will give a special presentation on this question at Social Media Analytics. Want to get real-time savvier? Join us!
