Hosted by IBM and presented by Leslie Ament, SVP & Principal Analyst, Hypatia Research Group, this webcast will demonstrate how business users and analysts collaborate to transform a multitude of online contextual sources into insight, predict optimal next-best actions and outcomes, and act upon this consumer insight for business gain.

Ament will share findings from Hypatia's ground-breaking research study "Social Analytics & Intelligence: Converting Contextual to Actionable Insights (http://store.hypatiaresearch.com/socialanalyticsandintell...)" We will also show an integrated demo across six functional categories within the context of an industry-specific customer story.

Leslie Ament (http://www.hypatiaresearch.com/expertise/team.html), http://www.hypatiaresearch.com/expertise/team.html Hypatia Research Group stated, “Early adopters have jumped on social analytics for measuring tactical and/or operational metrics primarily. As a result these companies are grappling with which metrics, trend analysis, and/or key performance indicators to utilize (available through dashboards, visualization or other types of reporting) in order to gain the most from investment in this technology. Our research found most organizations fall into one or more of the following maturity levels:

§           Clients know they need metrics but are uncertain as to what to use in order to be effective;

§           Clients expect vendors to provide them with a menu of available metrics or KPI’s to choose from;

§           Clients know precisely which metrics they want for each of their business objectives.”
