Companies are just beginning to grasp the true power of social data. The ability to collect feedback without the need for costly market research studies, surveys, and focus groups is a relatively new prospect. But as brands have started measuring, many sense that they could (and should) be doing much more with the abundant data at their finger tips. Simply collecting data is not enough. To remain competitive, marketers must fully realize the breadth and depth of knowledge and insights they can gain from online conversations.

Scott Briggs will discuss the state of social media intelligence today and where we are headed in the future. He will outline the advanced techniques that forward-thinking brands are using to move from simply collecting data to truly analyzing and drawing insights that are fueling smart business decisions.

The future of social intelligence is predictive, strategic, and unlike social measurement as you know it today. Are you ready?
