As business owners, we love to see data.

Social media marketing data helps you biz grow and measures what isn’t working! This is a MUST for any social media marketing content plan!

The same goes for your social media insights as well.

Social media marketing data (aka insights) helps you understand your audience AND it tells you how they do things, what they prefer, and who they are (just to name a few!)

These insights help measure the impact of your marketing efforts across different platforms to see if there’s something you need to do differently for examples:

  • Post at a certain time of day
  • Experiment with a new content format
  • Increase engagement

Reels Insights

Alright Chic Tribe, you can NOW see new metrics including Plays, Accounts Reached, Likes, Comments, Saves, and Shares! 

This is HUGE for anyone who is trying to grow their business through social media marketing.
