Frequently asked questions
How should a Social Media Analytics Report be structured?
Executive summary first, then context, method or data, findings, and finally recommendations. Readers skim the summary and jump to recommendations, so those two sections must stand alone without the middle.
How long should the executive summary be?
Roughly five to ten percent of the report. Someone who reads only the summary should know the problem, the findings, and what you are asking for.
Should I include charts?
Only where a chart carries the argument better than a sentence. Title each one with the finding it shows, not the variable it plots.
Can I export it to PDF and Word?
Yes, both, free and without an account. Circulate the PDF and keep the Word file for colleagues who must add a section.
