Our client used ICUC’s comprehensive reporting and analytics to see exactly what their competition was putting online, and which of that content was succeeding.
Every month, our client got a monthly bird’s-eye-view of their entire brand. All the conversations on keywords, competitors, upcoming partnerships and more. The report is equal parts barometer, monitoring progress toward their KPIs and road map. Therefore, helping them anticipate any upcoming obstacles that could be detrimental to the brand.
