Social Samosa Tool Feature - QuickMetrix

About the tool!

Digital & social media spends are rapidly increasing for most consumer brands, in absolute terms and as percentage of marketing spend.

Yet, the #1 challenge brands face is the ability to measure ROI (Returns on Investment) on this spend. So, they have to be content with superficial metrics like fans, followers, engagement rates etc. More importantly, what gets missed out is “Business Benefits” from their social media initiatives.

No more!

QuickMetrix is an easy to use product for business users in (digital) marketing, product managers, corporate communications/ public relations to get more outcomes from their investments across social media platforms:

Measure efficacy of campaigns

What engages audiences; what doesn’t

Understand the audience demographics

Benchmark vis-à-vis competition or even category

Manage social platforms better to avoid bad PR

Curate data which may be used for secondary market research

And much more…

In some cases, even if the Brand chooses not to have a social media presence, yet, understanding its online reputation is still of paramount importance. QuickMetrix enables that as well.

Who founded the product/company?

QuickMetrix was conceived as a business user’s enablement to analyse the ever-increasing text data: comments and conversations.

Traditional text analytics products require some technical knowledge or the ability to write complex Boolean queries! Most of the social media analytics software are still siloed and don’t show the big picture.

The founders: Ameet, Uday and Suren are typical business users who felt the need for an easy to use software which can not only show the big picture but also retain the ability to deep dive. Vijay and his team based in Bengaluru provide the tech smarts to making this vision a reality.

What platforms does it cover?

QuickMetrix is designed to curate data from any platform that allows it: Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Pinterest, YouTube, Google+, Complaint forums, eCommerce Forums, millions of websites and blogs. We keep adding new platforms.

Thus, QuickMetrix can provide a comprehensive picture as well as platform specific view of the Brand’s presence
