Have you come across social media statistics and do not know how to make use of it for your business?

It can be extremely helpful if you have not started benchmarking what you are doing on social media nor have identified your key performance indicators yet.

How to Use Any Social Media Statistics

Unless you are a data nerd, check only those that matter to your business and check the source/s as well if they are credible.

Metrics are for doing, not for staring. Never measure just because you can. Measure to learn. Measure to fix. ~ Stijn Debrouwere
