Mediaboss Marketing

NEW YORK, May 15, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Buddy Media, the social enterprise software of choice for eight of the world's top ten global advertisers, today announced many industry firsts as part of major enhancements to its social marketing suite. The enhancements -- including a unified social data API, conversion, campaign and goal tracking across paid, owned and earned social media efforts, and a new mobile content development platform enable brands to unify their social media programs with one enterprise social marketing suite.

"Social media marketing is anarchy right now within brands and agencies. Buddy Media is the only company to provide a unified solution that helps our customers to organize their teams, optimize their social programs to deliver real business results, and repeat," said Buddy Media Founder and CEO Michael Lazerow. "Buddy Media continues to lead the way in social marketing software, and our new product enhancements demonstrate why we are trusted by the largest brands, agencies, publishers, and retailers in the world."

Buddy Media is the only company to be named a charter Facebook Preferred Marketing Developer, LinkedIn Certified Developer and Google Engagement Solutions partner. The company's new industry-leading enhancements include:

Unified Social Data API

Buddy Media is the only company to allow brands to break down siloes with a unified social data API for their social media presences, conversations and ads. Brands can now:

"It is essential for brands to be able to easily export all of their social data programmatically, and integrate it with existing CRM, email or other business process software, so social can be truly integrated into greater business decisions," said Lazerow. "It's another first for Buddy Media to be able to give brands all of their social data, across paid, owned and earned media in one API and one software solution."

Universal Comprehensive Conversion/ROI Tracking

Buddy Media is the first social marketing software company to launch universal conversion tracking across its entire social marketing suite. Brands can now see in real time which content is performing best, and specifically which social posts, applications and sharing activity drive the most conversions. For example, if a user posts several updates to a social stream that link to a Buddy Media social application, the user can track the conversions driven by each specific update, such as a form submission or a video view.

"It's not enough for brands and agencies to only know qualitative data such as shares and comments. They also need to know specifically which content is driving the most actions," said Lazerow. "With Buddy Media, you can now optimize content specifically for actions, not just engagement."
