How to Calculate and Increase Your ROSE

Introduction here:

What does Return on Social Effort (ROSE) online mean?

The idea is to monitor and measure the profitability of that effort, so there’s really no right or wrong way of calculating it. What’s crucial is to first determine what you want to get out of your social media effort before analyzing or measuring it. The reason for this exercise is to justify your company’s social media marketing or listening (after all, it all starts with listening!) program.

I hope you find the article useful to effectively growing your business.
