Overview

Social media is an overwhelming content repository. According to data from Statista, the social media advertising segment shows average growth rates of around 22.3% per year globally. Ad spending in the social media advertising segment is projected to reach US$268.70 bn in 2023.

This makes sense considering that 4.62 billion people worldwide use social media. Specifically, 26.3% use social media to find products to purchase, and 27.7% use it to find inspiration for things to do and buy. In other words, if a company has a product or service to sell, its potential customers could be looking for a reason to buy it from the company itself or its competitors on social media.

Therefore, to determine how social media affects business, social media analytics is required!
