Social Media R.O.I.

KF Depth

While other agencies speak of proprietary social media reporting and analytic tools that create engagement and loyalty as revenue metrics, under the covers, they're really just applying traditional metrics, such as impressions, reach, and views.

At Kinetic Fin, we go deeper. We build each campaign with a focus on maximizing each dollar spent, by creating experiences that encourage the right kinds of sharing. We call these experiences "Social Stories."

Gevalia Gift Matcher

To date, Gift Matcher is one of the most efficient social campaigns we have ever produced. Gathering information from multiple data sources like Facebook, Twitter, IMDB, Amazon, and Wikipedia, we created a personalized gift giving recommendation engine that produced playful gift ideas for Facebook friends. The ending campaign results include 1.9 million total produced social impressions and a 40% lift above projected revenue. Gift Matcher is the single BIGGEST online Social Media campaign Gevalia has had in 2 years.
