Hi Kaye,

I’m planning on using something very similar in my class (and did use a few ideas from your assignment, so thank you!), and was wondering:

Did you give them a list of clients for your class to choose? If so, would you mind sharing that list? Was it companies, celebrities, or what?

I’m trying to find a good balance between too much information (which can be overwhelming) and too little (which may make writing the assignment hard and boring).

Thanks!
Danny.

Bret:

100% you could do this in business, marketing, PR, etc. In fact, I would suggest that one’s competitors be monitored alongside their own mentions so that you get an overall idea of what the conversation about your issues and industry are online. What my students are doing would be very easily adapted to monitoring the competitor because my students do NOT have access to their assigned clients’ internally tracked metrics like google analytics etc — they only have what is out there & publicly published for all.

Thanks for reading!
