The spread use of social media has changed the way customers search for and interact with products, services and brands, providing new opportunities for organizations and individuas to engage their public, know the opinions related to their products, monitor their competitors, and sell their services. It also created new threats, such as rapid-expanding, viral rumours, emergent influential detractors and lost opportunities that vanish if not quickly acted upon.

To effectivelly work upon social media and be able to seize opportunities and counter threats, it is necessary to: (a) constantly capture what is being said about ones’ clients in the social channels, such as Twitter and Facebook (b) quickly discover from the deluge of data gathered, which particular posts, stories and people matter for our client’s business goals and (c) take the appropriate actions on the right time!
