Are Bots Putting Your Credibility at Risk?

Leading Fortune 1000 companies have recognized the potential for social media data to be a critical component of their broader Business Intelligence (BI), analytics and reporting initiatives.  According to P&G CEO Bob MacDonald, “It’s the data sources that help create the brand and keep it dynamic. So those data sources are incredibly important.”

At the same time, executives recognize the importance and challenge of obtaining clean, trusted data. According to McKinsey, 46% of C-level respondents indicate that ‘Lack of Quality Data’ is the most significant challenge faced in meeting digital business priorities. The uncomfortable reality is that raw social media data is far from pristine. For example, automated ‘bots’ now account for a double-digit percentage of all social media messages. Duplicated messages and spam are putting your credibility at-risk.
