CLIENT CHALLENGES
- A personal-care brand engaged us to validate findings from a customer survey with actual social media behaviour
- Key business questions involved the following:

-
Which content formats and posting times perform best across social channels?
-
How can we optimise discovery, recall and engagement strategies based on real-world usage?
-
OUR APPROACH
- Step 1: Data collection and integration
-
Over a four-month period, engagement, reach and follower metrics were tracked across key social platforms

Used third-party tools and native analytics to gather the following:
-
Subscriber growth trends
-
Post-level engagement by format (reels, images, stories, carousals)
-
Hashtag performance metrics
-
Audience activity by day and time
-
Compared this with a structured survey of 1,000 users on browsing habits, content preferences and brand recall
-
- Step 2: Survey vs behavioural comparison
-
Survey results provided insights on the following:
-
Content consumption habits (format and timing)
-
Discovery and recall channel
-
Engagement preferences
-
Cross-referenced with actual behavioural metrics to identify overlaps and mismatches.
