Arguably then, market research is decontextualised, and as a result brands should always look to incorporate social media into their campaigns for this very reason. Despite what some may think, this doesn’t have to be a complicated process. Brands should always create a hashtag on Twitter for each event, which would help raise the profile of a campaign by drawing all conversation into one place. The hashtag also makes it easy to track and monitor from an evaluation point of view, and it encourages people to keep referring back to your event after it has finished. Facebook is also useful for gauging real-time feedback. Creating a bespoke Facebook page for an event/campaign and encouraging users to upload photos or comments is a great way to track what they really think, right when it matters the most.
Listening to people in social media works because the comments or feedback are made at the moment of high engagement. What you learn from this kind of medium cannot be gathered through research.
