Social listening notes and insights
Listening
Social monitoring vs social listening
Monitoring tells you that something was said. Listening is the work of understanding why it matters and what to do next.
Analysis
Why sentiment alone is not enough
A 65% positive score can hide a dangerous complaint cluster. Pair sentiment with themes, sources, reach and change over time.
AI
What an AI assistant should actually do in social listening
