While there are unquestionably many ways that social media marketing results can be measured , the debate rages on as to whether it’s truly possible to quantify the ROI from these activities.

There’s a lot of confusion about social media these days, and marketing professionals aren’t making it any easier. As a result, agencies and marketing professionals are being asked more frequently by executives how they can “use social” or get social” by engaging in the social space.
