Preface
Social media and Business Intelligence are now inseparable. Even the most basic user of any social media service asks himself such questions as “How many followers do I have?”, “What’s trending today?”, “How do people feel about…?”It is the job of Business Intelligence to tease out these answers in a comprehensive and scientific way so that the information can be organized and stored in a way that provides business value. This allows for companies to gain competitive edge, cut costs and release products with a higher degree of success.
Combining social media and business intelligence for small and medium sized enterprises is even more crucial. It allows them a greater audience reach, more effective targeting and greater cost savings. Advertising and marketing campaigns can be created more efficiently.
