Through Kenshoo Social and Shoutlet, clients gain visibility into the impact of owned media assets, and paid social advertising, ultimately driving more accurate captures of revenue-driving activity, down to the individual page posts. This functionality illuminates the full value of social media initiatives by enabling brands to better understand how paid and owned social media activity contribute to the purchase process.
"The integration of Kenshoo Social and Shoutlet offers marketers the unique ability to monitor a consumer's path to action following each interaction with the brand," said Jason Weaver, CEO of Shoutlet. "This detail enables advertisers and agencies to identify and attribute successful activity and maximize ROI of both paid and owned social media campaigns."
The partnership allows marketers to better evaluate which strategies resonate most with social media users and apply those insights to achieve deeper brand engagement and optimise click-to-sale conversions. Additionally, through the Kenshoo Universal Platform, marketers can view social media performance alongside search and other channels to holistically assess campaign activity and bottom-line results.
"Kenshoo Social clients who run multi-channel campaigns can now examine a more complete picture of their brands' interaction with consumers and assess the value driven by owned and paid social media," said Sivan Metzger, General Manager of Kenshoo Social. "Marketers who better understand this interplay can more effectively outperform competitors, avoid costly errors, and optimise campaigns much faster and smarter."
In addition to announcing the new partnership at SMX Social, both companies launched major platform updates. Kenshoo Social released a beta of Kenshoo Social 2.0 and Shoutlet announced the next iteration of its platform, Shoutlet 6.0, which includes significant new features and updates to existing functionality.
