How I know Social Is Working

I want you to stare at that picture for a minute.

Let it soak in.

That’s a Venn diagram of how SageRock gets conversions.

That is a screen capture of our multi-channel conversion report from Google Analtyics.

I think the circles should be pretty self explanatory.

But what I want to point out is the social circle. It just keeps getting bigger and bigger and bigger.

Here’s the same report for March 2012:

In March social contributed 16% of our conversions.

Today social has contributed 23% of our conversions.

In 3 months that’s a huge jump.

What I can tell you is this:

SageRock has a brutally long sales cycle. Months to years it takes to convert. Getting someone to trust us is a slow, long process. Winning someone’s trust to invest in us is all about the relationship.

We are a B2B play that is very difficult to close. Social media is crucial for us in building that trust.

This is what I’m saying to you: Social media is ideal for a long sales cycle business to business company. 

And here’s the thing: most of our social traffic comes from Facebook – not LinkedIn.

Facebook is ideal for a B2B company. To think otherwise is probably misunderstanding how you get sales in the first place.

About Sage Lewis

My name is Sage Frederick Lewis. My kid's name is Indiana Sage Lewis. I am filled with love and passion for many things in life. The list of things I like about life is MUCH longer than the things I don't like about life. So, since you don't have all day reading about the mundane things I love (some of which, btw, include: Rocky, Indy, SageRock, movies, pizza, cheesecake, running, exploring.) here are the things I don't like: Driving Meetings Zucchini (I like it fine. I'm just allergic.) I think that's pretty much it. My Twitter account is: http://twitter.com/sagerock My YouTube Channel is: http://www.youtube.com/sagerock
