Challenge
The agency faced several challenges while managing a high-volume social media campaign for a major online shopping brand. Here are the primary issues identified:
- High Volume Content Management: Producing and tracking the performance of 500 social media posts monthly across various platforms was overwhelming.
- Data Collection: Manually gathering data on post-performance metrics such as likes, shares, comments, and reach was time-consuming and prone to errors.
- Data Integration: Existing tools couldn’t efficiently handle and consolidate large volumes of data from multiple social media platforms.
- Analytics and Insights: Extracting actionable insights from vast data to evaluate campaign effectiveness and promotional success was complex.
- Visualisation: Creating comprehensive, easy-to-understand dashboards to monitor performance and trends in real time was challenging.
What We Did
To streamline the agency’s workflow and enhance the effectiveness of their social media campaigns, we implemented the following solutions:
- Automated Data Collection: Developed scripts to automate the daily extraction of social media performance data across platforms like Facebook, Instagram, X, and LinkedIn.
- Data Scraping and Cleaning: Utilised Python and APIs to scrape relevant data, clean it, and ensure consistency for further analysis.
- Integrated Data Management: Built an automated system to consolidate data from multiple platforms into a centralised database, bypassing traditional limitations.
- Dynamic Dashboards: Created intuitive, real-time dashboards using Google Data Studio, enabling the agency to visualise campaign performance effortlessly.
