Cross-platform validation of social media metrics for a personal-care brand

  • Identified optimal content formats and ideal posting times based on both data sources

  • Verified that self-reported behaviours were consistent with actual social media engagement

  • Validated branded hashtags as being more effective than generic tags in driving recall and engagement


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:
    • Do self-reported behaviours in surveys reflect actual social media engagement patterns?

    • 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.

IMPACT DELIVERED

  • Align survey design with overserved social media behaviour
  • Optimise content strategy by prioritising reels/video formats
  • Target peak posting times to maximise engagement ROI
  • Build stronger campaign outcomes using memorable branded hashtags
