Social media impacts every part of an organization, yet most companies still don’t have a strategy to integrate it into their core business. Most social media solutions do a great job of listening for comments and paying attention to social conversations, but lack the ability to take immediate action or drive existing business processes.
Only knowing what is being said provides little value, however, acting and capitalizing on what is said in real-time across multiple channels provides real value for both customer and the organization.
Metaphor leverages the full power of Social Media by incorporating those channels into comprehensive campaigns driven by events and integrated into core business processes, allowing companies to go beyond just listening to social conversations to acting and capitalizing on dialogues that positively or negatively affect sales, service, product development and corporate brand.
With comprehensive end-to-end social media capabilities that enable companies to design, listen, measure, analyze, engage and adjust in highly relevant social dialogs, Metaphor differentiates itself from other Social Media solutions by establishing Points of Presence (POP) in social dialogs that drive integrated proactive campaigns or responses.
Metaphor’s Social Integration capabilities let you know what your customers are saying about your competitors. Being aware of negative comments about a competing brand may drive a specific attack strategy to drive more sales and monitoring positive comments may drive competing offers.
