  • I'd say it depends on the amount of data supplied/available, and what sort of controls are in place... ideally they'd grab it all, no? #sm64

  • Whatever you give them. :-) A lot of details in SM sites are preferences, interests, etc that you don't need to provide. #sm64

  • Critical question is, what data matters most? #sm64

  • Much of the data is collected to be mined for insights later. Often they simply collect to collect. #sm64

In 30 mins we will be chatting about social media data management. Privacy, Security and Retention #sm64 Join us - http://bit.ly/aI5NjS
We'll get started with #sm64 in 5 minutes or so. Talking about how companies use customer data collected on social platforms/sites
Kicking off #sm64 now. First question coming momentarily....

Social data integration examples are more common. Just look at Salesforce.com integration w/Twitter, Amazon, FB http://bit.ly/cdj9hY #sm64
Possible but not advised! RT : . Collection of All data possible. Analysis must be objective driven #sm64
A social media falsehood. Everything online can be measured. It simply needs a plan (goals and metrics) to do it. #sm64
Good point. That is a REAL challenge/problem for companies though. How to mine real-time data for real-time opps? #sm64
Machines gather data quickly. Good human analysis takes more time :) #sm64
Which will only exacerbate the problem companies have with mining data for insights in a timely fashion #sm64
Grt example of social data integration. That's what we focus on. Building a better view of the customer w/social data #sm64
That's my point. You cannot automate those judgement calls on unstructured social data. Human analysis required #sm64
That's my point. You cannot automate those judgement calls on unstructured social data. Human analysis required #sm64
We have yet to fully grasp the long term data mining possiblities of social data. Too immature/early but am hopeful/optimistic #sm64
Both. Better views of the customer and the individual (when possible) #sm64
Both. Better views of the customer and the individual (when possible) #sm64
Amen. Don't drown in data. Don't be data rich and insights poor. Define key data needs and focus on only those. #sm64
Q2. How are companies securing and protecting customer data collected from social sites? Privacy concerns? Good examples? #sm64
RT : We need to teach cos that they don't win a prize for measuring. They win for extracting insights that can improve #sm64

agree, can be confusing. No clear or common definitions on those terms/topics. #sm64
agree, can be confusing. No clear or common definitions on those terms/topics. #sm64
There are many different listening/monitoring/data collection modes. Important to define which one you will use first #sm64
Don't create more data silos. Map social data collection points to existing process, security, storage. #sm64
Companies like Salesforce and are good examples of how to secure this data, by integrating it with existing systems. #sm64
Not ignore, but not all data is of equal value. Passively monitor lower tier data. Don't try to boil the ocean #sm64
The listening platform market has changed considerably since that report was published. Some new players and lots new info #sm64
Well, of course. Lies, damn lies and social media statistics. #sm64
Excellent point. It's just that simple. Invest in measurement and analytics capabilities internally. #sm64
much easier to blame the new, poorly understood kid on the block and accept responsibility and change "mature" orgs #sm64
That is an incredibly important point. Good social intelligence requires analysts with business and social media acumen #sm64
much easier to blame the new, poorly understood kid on the block and accept responsibility and change "mature" orgs #sm64
Running low on time.....question three coming up #sm64
Q3. What are companies retaining social data for? How are they using it to improve business performance? #sm64
Example: Capturing customer support interactions from social platforms and feeding/storing that into a customer service history #sm64
RT Unless you can isolate control factors to prove causality, you're going to have a tough time. #sm64
If that, then how COULD they be using it? Ideas? #sm64
There are companies doing that now. Comcast, Zappos, KLM Airlines come to mind #sm64
Great example! RT Q3: we are using community data to understand what drives Net Promoter - time to answer is crucial. #sm64
That's called customer data management and there needs to be a strategy for it #sm64
That's a wrap to #sm64 everyone. Thanks for joining and providing such great convo! Many more topics to be explored here
Gotta run folks. Great hosting #sm64 this week. Thanks to and for putting on such a helpful show
