Sprout Social is being used by one person within our organization's Communications department. I implemented Sprout hoping to streamline our social media efforts and manage all of our organization's social media platforms from one place. I currently have two Facebook accounts, one Twitter account, one Instagram account, one LinkedIn company profile, and a Google Analytics account connected to Sprout.
We are a global company with a single global account on LinkedIn and Facebook, with different strategies and commercial focuses per region. So, currently, we have different users with each of one creating their own messages and content for their countries and languages with their own strategies and sometimes particular campaigns. How do we manage this? With Sprout Social. It's great that Sprout Social provides, among others, basic functionalities related to the posting calendar, tools to get performance reports, and management by region or user. It provides also a lot of resources to manage dashboards, reports, and social media listening not only for our brand but also for competitors in a collaborative way.
Sprout Social is being used by the communications department--particularly our two Digital Communications Specialist staff members, which includes me. We use it to schedule social media posts, pull analytics reports, and monitor social media mentions. We use this tool on a daily basis and find that it addresses our social media needs for the most part.
Sprout Social is being used by multiple departments, both marketing and support. Marketing is lead and supports issues with Support through Sprout. We use it for social listening for issues and customer praise, to engage with customers, to promote our blog and products. It addresses brand awareness, social promotion, and lead generation with our Blog.
Our team used Sprout Social for more than 2 years to publish on pages and profiles, schedule content, monitor, and report effectiveness on social media.
Sprout Social was used in conjunction with Meltwater this past year. We used Sprout to schedule LinkedIn posts and pull analytics on an ad-hoc basis for client requests. Sprout gave high-level analytics for our social performance, but was not able to be the standalone software for our needs because it wasn't as robust as we had hoped.
We use Sprout to get notified of, review, and reply to mentions/posts/DMs to our 2 business pages. The reporting in Sprout is used to set and measure goals/SLAs. This is all handled by our Customer Experience Team, although our marketing team does use Sprout as well to track engagement sometimes (this part I'm not familiar with the details). Using Sprout allows us to aggregate all social issues into one place and track who responds with what answer, timeliness of responses and ensure a clear voice coming from our brands
Sprout Social is primarily used by my organization to generate reports on our social media progress across Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn. We use it to standardize and measure values including followers, posts, engagements and clicks. We typically measure these month over month and include these numbers in our reports to senior leadership.
It is being used by the full social team here at our Agency. It is used mainly for reporting/monthly metric takeaways rather community management, brand engagement, social listening, or scheduling. It helps us track how well or content is performing month over month, how our community is growing, demographics on our community, and more.
I work on creating and posting social content for clients, and a few of them have opted to use Sprout Social to manage their social accounts. They wanted a platform that would include multi-functionality and serve as their overarching content hub. We gave them the options for a few different platforms, and quite a few tapped Sprout Social to be the center of all things social.
Sprout Social is a definite time saver for any company that’s heavily invested in its social media presence, especially marketing firms that manage numerous accounts. It allows users to post across multiple social platforms and also view detailed analytics. Analytics also help users to determine what social strategies are effective and adjust accordingly.
Sprout Social was used by the marketing department by my company. We used it to create and manage our editorial content calendar. We scheduled all of our social media posts on various platforms (Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, LinkedIn) on Sprout Social. I manage over 150 Facebook Business Pages and over 75 Instagram pages. The reporting tools here are wonderful. I had a great customer service rep who walked us through any issues we may have encountered or shown us features we may not have been aware of.
Sprout Social is currently used by our Marketing and Customer Experience departments. Marketing uses it to manage campaigns and also keep a pulse on our competition and industry. The Customer Experience team utilizes it as a way to resolve customer issues and engage with customers who may leave feedback about our organization.
I use Sprout Social to run an overall view of my clients brand to help them understand who is following them online, and how to best reach their audience through social media and content marketing strategies.
We use Sprout Social in our marketing dept to manage all of our location pages. It helps consolidate everything into one place so we don't have to switch between social media pages.
I have used Sprout Social for multiple companies and always just within the marketing organization, and of course, on behalf of executive leadership. It's an awesome tool that enables your business to thoughtfully schedule posts for all platforms, monitor comments, collaborate with others on your team with a really solid editorial calendar. It's also super cool that you can schedule Instagram posts and stories! The calendar features rocks.
I've used SproutSocial for a couple of clients. One client selected it (even though I was interested in using a different solution) because it allowed the client to approve each post before it was added to the queue. Another client had already implemented it. They didn't seem entirely happy with it but were in a contract.
Several departments use Sprout Social at my company. My department mainly uses it to understand the marketing tactics that we have implemented for our clients. More than just understanding these tactics, we want to see how these campaigns have done across multiple platforms—whether that be interaction or overall use amongst consumers. We also use it to understand what campaigns we should use next and what our client would like to see in the future.
We use Sprout Social for our social media accounts to send out information from a centralized platform. Our social media reports are being generated through Sprout Social. It cuts down on workload. We have more than 20 content creators on the team and it is used across the whole organization.
We use it to manage our social media accounts like Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, etc. It has so many great tools that adapt in a great manner to our needs. This is used by our Marketing department as well as our Outsourced Community Management team.
Sprout Social is used to track key social media metrics, monitor social media campaigns, track social media engagement, and provide social media reports to key stakeholders including supervisors, directors, and other executives. Additionally, we used Sprout Social as a way to schedule content and help create a content calendar we could follow.
My hotel is unique because we are actually two hotels in one which means we have double the social profiles a normal property does. We use Sprout Social to keep track of all our social profiles and interactions. It assists in making sure nothing falls through the cracks or goes unanswered.
We are a digital marketing agency, so most of us in the organization use the software with the exception of the web programmers and graphic designers. We use Sprout Social for social media management. It helps us keep track of our client's social media accounts and gather analytics and reports for our clients. The reporting is phenomenal and it makes it easy for my team and I to show the client the results.
I requested Sprout Social for use at my agency based on previous use at a startup. For now only I am using it on one account but other teams have shown interest in acquiring it. It is used primarily for social media scheduling and management, allowing for more flexibility and organization than just using Facebook and Twitter (TweetDeck) natively.
We used Sprout Social to begin experimenting with social media management tools as we scaled our voice on multiple social platforms. It was utilized by the market department (a small one - usage was mainly by 2 users, max). Usually in tandem, as we explored the product. It allowed us to get ahead of ourselves in terms of planning and scheduling so we were able to develop a social plan in real-time, as we explored a tool that is meant to allow us to do just that. As a small team, we were short on hands, literally, and ideas, so having the ability to schedule across platforms, as well as utilize hashtag trend tools to generate ideas was very helpful.
