How to set goals for a social media campaign:

Traffic: The eyeballs on your site. You want to use social media to drive a larger and larger audience to visit your website.

Leads: You want to use social media to drive people to your website to download, post, or become a lead.

Reach: The greater reach you have, the easier it is to get significant

traffic or leads from social media channels. If reach is your key

metric, you want to increase your social media followers or fans.

Reach: The greater reach you have, the easier it is to get significant traffic

or leads from social media channels. If reach is your key metric, you want to

increase your social media followers or fans.

Buzz (Mentions): More mentions means more people talking about you means more

awareness of your company and product among a greater audience. If buzz or

awareness is important to you, you will want to measure mentions of your

brand names in social media over time.

Customer Happiness: People are talking about you whether or not you want them

to! Social media allows you to tune into conversations your customers are

having, be they positive or negative.

Strategy

11

To promote the #ChangeatSU campaign via Twitter and Facebook and get Syracuse University college students to share their opinions and stories of things they want to see improved on campus.

Students can share their experience and concerns by tweeting us, writing on our Facebook wall, or anonymously through Google Forms. We utilized A and B testing to evaluate which phrases, tweets, and hashtags received the most amount of engagement from the audience.

We want to make Syracuse University a better place.

Lessons Learned

- Not everyone feels comfortable posting their past experiences at the SU counseling center on Twitter

- Consistent tweeting is important for a new social media campaign

- Incorporating other social media platforms helped expand our audience(ex. Thunderclap)

- Creating a social media campaign requires a lot of planning and a lot of time

What Worked?! :)

- Including trending hashtags enabled us to receive more engagements from our audience

- We received a lot of positive engagement by incorporating twitter polls into our tweets

- A and B testing allowed us to determine which posts received more engagement

- Integrating popular campus topics into our posts- Engaging with our audience

What Didn’t Work? :/

22

- Remaining anonymous- Using our ChangeAtSU blog for students to post their

thoughts,experiences,and opinions- Originally having a topic that was too specific
