Entersoft Social CRM

An Entersoft consultant or your System Administrator will ensure that Entersoft Social CRM is connected to the chosen Facebook and Twitter accounts and that the social media activity on these accounts is regularly downloaded (see sections: 15 and 16). You can then utilize the evolving Social CRM functionality to effectively plan, post, and monitor your activity on the two most popular social networks: '''''Facebook''''' and '''''Twitter'''''. The following sections introduce the features and functionality of the new module:

The interactive dashboard “Activity analysis” (Image 1) presents the activity on your accounts on a descending daily basis, ordered by priority, within a period of time. Your fans and followers post comments and updates, tweet, like or favorite your posts and so forth. This dashboard allows you to monitor this activity, initiated either by you or by your fans/followers, and supports your efforts for targeted and prompt responses. The dashboard also provides some concise information about the daily post trend and the post distribution by type and interaction.

<blockquote>[[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image3.png|22x22px|C:\Users\smp\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5\5ERD3D13\MCj04326210000[1].png]]The average lifespan of a post
</blockquote>
If a fan or a follower interacts with a post older than the defined (Image 2) average lifespan, the tooltip will include this info. This purely informative tip aims to help you evaluate and, maybe, reassess your posting strategies.

Image 2: Company parameters: Average post lifespan

[[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image10.png|432x31px]]

The post priority is configurable by a set of three Company parameters that define the weighting factor for comments or replies, likes or favorites, shares or Retweets (Image 3). Besides the number of likes/favorites, shares/Retweets, comments/replies that each post has accumulated, the assessment of the specific fan/follower also contributes to the priority calculation.

<blockquote>[[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image3.png|22x22px|C:\Users\smp\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5\5ERD3D13\MCj04326210000[1].png]]The formula for the priority calculation
</blockquote>
((Number of Comments or Replies x Weighting Coefficient for Comments or Replies) + (Number of Likes or Favorites x Weighting Coefficient for Likes or Favorites) + (Number of Shares or Retweets x Weighting Coefficient for Shares or Retweets) + absolute value of Reputation Points) divided by 10.

Image 3: Company parameters: Weighting coefficients

[[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image11.png|360x41px]]

The dashboard allows you to '''''directly access''''' the '''''account''''' that performed an activity (e.g. liked a post) and the post per se, additionally to viewing its textual content through the corresponding tooltip.

The date filter allows you to focus on a specific date or period of time, while the three available selectors (Social medium, To Account, Activity by) can help you further narrow down the results. Note that the two '''''pie charts''''' at the bottom of the dashboard also '''''act as dynamic selectors'''''. This means that by clicking on a specific post type (bottom left pie chart) or/and interaction type (bottom right chart) you can focus on the activity you are most interested in, at some point.

Finally, visit to the '''''daily trend graph''''' to review the activity trends on your social accounts; here you may optionally focus on particular interaction types e.g. to review the participation to a facebook contest in a period of time.

The interactive dashboard “Activity and Interactions” includes (Image 5) a list quite similar to the list presented in the previous section. Here, the dashboard user is expected to initially define the filters and then perform a series of actions on the returned records. These actions are:

* '''''Create a new post''''': This drop down selector allows the Entersoft Social CRM user to quickly create a new post based on the fans activity; e.g. in order to answer to a repeated question by fans and so forth.
* '''''Response:''''' depending on the recorded activity, the Dashboard will suggest the supported response type i.e. posting a new comment or a new reply.

Image 5: Activity and Interactions

[[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image13.png|501x330px]]

* '''''Tags:''''' This column contains the content tags (see section 11) of each post; next to it, the button [[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image14.png|21x21px]] allows you to manually assign special content tags to the corresponding post. Note that not all content tags can be manually assigned through this particular action. The action automatically filters-out any tags that are not characterized as “to be reported”; i.e. the selectable content tags are those under the characteristic defined at the Company Parameter presented in Image 6. Posts tagged as such appear in the report: “Discussions to be reported” (Section 13). The purpose of assigning here these special content tags is to classify some posts as of a particular importance and, subsequently, to be able to view them, listed in a concise format as discussions (Section 13; Image 79), that can be exported and distributed for high-level, focused monitoring.

Image 6: Company parameters:

[[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image15.png|454x23px]]

* '''''Related internal communication''''': Some posts necessitate the escalation of the issues they might ensue. In such cases, the person that monitors the daily posts can record information about '''''who''''' they informed about it and '''''what''''' was discussed and eventually decided. By clicking on the [[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image16.png|15x15px]] button, the system displays a dialogue for editing the related information (Image 7). Note that this info is also included in the report: “Discussions to be reported” (Section 13).

The social media users, which have interacted with your Facebook or Twitter account, are downloaded automatically as Social Media Accounts, along with any posts. By clicking on a specific account on the activity analysis dashboard, the Social Media Account UI form can be accessed (Image 11). There, you may:

* Access the user’s online profile.
* View information collected from special through media applications and the additional permissions granted by a user when participating e.g. in a facebook contest (see section: 8).

Image 8: Additional info from social media

[[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image18.png|308x130px]]

* Associate the Social Media Account with a Person and, at the same time, review some basic info. Currently, when using shift+F3/F3 on the field: Person name, the system attempts to match the username of the social media account to a series of info (Name, email address, email or main address etc.) on existing Persons in order to make a valid proposal. Additional criteria are also available on the investigation list in order to help match Persons and Social Media Accounts effectively. To allow the automatic identification to be exclusively applied, you are advised to preserve the default values of the criteria on the investigation dialogue. If one or more criteria are altered then the system will return a list of the Persons that match your criteria and, at the same time, it will also attempt to include the automatic identification proposal.

Image 9: Social media account – Investigation dialogue (F3 or Shift+F3) on the field: Person name

[[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image19.png|537x204px]]

* Monitor the account’s recent activity; note that the previously described dashboard (see section: 1) is also available in the Social Media Account context) along with the Activity administration list (see section: 4).

* You may also view a dashboard of the recorded interactions. A list is also available through the “show list” action. This dashboards presents the following info:
** Percentages by Interaction type. The memo of this pie chart is interactive and it can be used to focus on specific activities (posts, events and so forth).
** Interaction % per Company Account
** Interaction % per Activity Type

Image 10: Social media account interactions

[[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image20.png|446x320px]]

* The particular form also incorporates functionality for '''''contacting the user''''' by standard email Facebook email<ref>Messages sent to facebook.com email addresses are forwarded to primary email addresses, so you can continue this conversation by email. https://www.facebook.com/help/224049364288051</ref>. Note that the '''''CRM communication toolbar''''' is available in this context too.

</blockquote>
Until 2014 a Social Media Account could be also created manually through typing the user name and clicking on the “Get user profile info from Social Network”. This is no longer supported.

<blockquote>[[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image2.png|22x22px|C:\Users\smp\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5\01D1IRT2\MCj04326100000[1].png]]Updating the profile of social media accounts
</blockquote>
Entersoft Social CRM allows you to regularly select accounts and execute the “get profile data” process, which is available on the Account’s UI Form and on the corresponding administration list.

<blockquote>[[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image3.png|22x22px|C:\Users\smp\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5\5ERD3D13\MCj04326210000[1].png]] Updating the profile of social media accounts in the background
</blockquote>
When initializing a new implementation, you may wish to perform a bulk update of user’s profile in the background. For this purpose, you may create a Scheduled Task using the view “ESTMSMAccountGetProfile-Social media accounts to be updated” and its Job Related automation. However, note that you should not schedule this task but merely “execute it now”, especially if the number of user accounts is significant. You advised to save this task and execute it manually if needed. The view also provides a criterion that attempts to ‘guess’ if the update has been executed before and, by default, updates any accounts that, most probably, have not been updated in the past.

The application will download the Account’s info from the corresponding Social Network. This includes information related to the user’s public profile. This basic information, which can vary depending on the Social network, includes:

* name
* user id
* username<ref>Since 2015 Facebook stopped providing this info. Nevertheless the field is still available on the UI for backwards compatibility purposes. Please note that this field will be removed in the future.</ref>
* gender
* language (locale, the ISO Language Code and ISO Country Code)
* profile picture URL

The following information can be updated by associated facebook apps (e.g. a facebook contest, see section: 8 ) depending on the permissions such an app has requested and been granted by each user.

* The “public profile” permission also includes:
** age range (possible age ranges are 13-17, 18-20, and 21+; max is not set if the age is 21+)
** country
* The birthday permission
** birthday
* The email permission
** email

</blockquote>
The Facebook Platform Policies require that apps and websites explicitly ask for user permission to access their and their friends' info. When a user grants that permission, apps can store the info they receive, but they are not allowed to transfer user info without the user’s consent or use this info for advertisements. In such cases, a user may contact you and request the info that he or she has previously shared with the app to be permanently deleted. http://www.facebook.com/help/126030670809392/

<blockquote>[[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image8.png|22x22px|C:\Users\smp\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5\5ERD3D13\MCj04421280000[1].png]] Attention

In some cases, Facebook does not return the user name of an account; this means that the particular account is '''unverified''' or no user name has been defined yet; this is '''''not uncommon as regards Facebook’s user accounts'''''.

* When Facebook Pages are not owned / administered by us we may choose to '''''download their''''' '''''public insights''''' (action on Social Media Accounts). This action is only available to administrators and the system warns us that it can be somewhat time consuming, depending on '''''Number of days for downloading past insights''''' (see p. 66) defined in the corresponding Company Parameter. The downloaded insights can be reviewed through the dashboard: Watch other pages (see corresponding section, p. 63).

Image 12: Download public insights

[[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image24.png|562x139px]]

* Moreover, you may '''''assess the specific account''''' (positively or negatively, by clicking on the [[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image27.png|80x18px]] button) e.g. depending on his or her activity. You may also select more than one accounts and mass-assess them, since the action is available on the SM Account list too.

<blockquote>As aforementioned, the user’s assessment contributes to the priority score of a post. The '''''assessment log''''' is also available on the SM Account UI form.

[[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image3.png|22x22px|C:\Users\smp\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5\5ERD3D13\MCj04326210000[1].png]]Assessment &amp; Reputation Points
</blockquote>
The new task category with Code “'''ReputationPoints'''” contains the points that can be added (positive assessment) or removed (negative assessment) to a user’s reputation.

Based on the system scale “'''ReputationScoreAnalysis'''”, the system assigns a characterization to the user (raging from Exceptional to Unreliable) depending on the accumulated score.

* Finally, you can '''''access the related Social Media Company Account''''', if any, by clicking on the [[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image28.png|146x18px]] button (see section: 15).

The complete list of the social network accounts is available at: Social Networking / User accounts / Account administration list (Image 13). This list also includes some concise information about the user '''''interactions''''', the number of '''''Fan Lists''''' he or she belongs to, and the '''''associated Persons''''', if any.

== Social Media Accounts as ‘Interactors’ ==

In order to access the information about Interactors<ref>I.e. the users that have performed some kind of action/activity on our accounts</ref> grouped by the Company Accounts that they have interacted with, the Interactors list is provided. The report presents the fans/followers in descending order based on the number of some of their interactions.

Image 14: Interactors per Company SM account

[[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image30.png|479x200px]]

Specifically, the report presents info about a fan’s:

* '''''Likes''''': the number of likes and the dates when the first and the last like occurred on.
* '''''Shares''''': the number of '''''retweets''''' and the dates when the first and the last like occurred on.
* '''''Comments''''': the number of comments and the dates of the first and the last comment.
* '''''Other posts''''': the number of original posts/tweets and the dates of the first and the most recent post.
* '''''Participations''''': the number of times that a user has participated in a facebook contest (see section: 8) and the dates of the first and the most recent participation.

Note that the Company Accounts are also included in this list; these can be filtered out using the standard Entersoft framework functionality that is available on all lists.

== Bulk identification of Social Media Accounts  ==

In order to associate many social media accounts to persons at once, the application provides a list that attempts to match the username of the social media account to a series of info (Name, email address, email or main address etc.) on existing Persons in order to make a valid proposal, similarly to the Shift+F3/F3 functionality described above. Several criteria are available in order to help match Persons and Social Media Accounts effectively. The user needs then to select and, thus, confirm the rows as identified pairs and, then, execute the “Associate selected” action, as shown in Image 15. The bulk identification is available under the menu: Social Networking / Persons.

Image 15: Bulk identification of social media accounts with existing Persons

[[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image31.png|403x169px]]

== Persons and Social media accounts ==

When associated to a Person, the related reporting and info becomes available at the Person’s form too, in the newly added expander: “Social media account Profile”. Specifically, the expander includes a list of the associated social media accounts, the activity of these accounts, and the recorded interactions.

A specialized Person list is also available in this context (Image 16); this list also includes information about whether the person is associated to at least one Twitter or Facebook account and a corresponding filter. The “Social Network Account Profile” is available on the related Customers too.

Image 16: Social networking / List of Persons

[[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image32.png|486x167px]]

Further to this list, a '''''CSV formatted list''''' is also available (Social Networking / Persons / CSV export). This list allows you to export the emails of your Business Associates (registered as Persons in EBS), in a Facebook compatible CSV format, and import them to Facebook in order to invite them to like your Facebook fan page and build your audience. Use the [[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image33.png|59x18px]] button to export the emails.

== Fan lists ==

You may also associate the account to one or more '''''Fan Lists'''''. The system supports the creation of Fan lists in order to help you classify your fans and followers and, moreover, filter any activity based on such lists. The concept is quite similar to the friend lists introduced by facebook (Image 17). Click on the “'''''Add to Fan List'''''” button and select the list you wish to add the account to. The functionality is also available at the social media accounts list.

Image 17: Facebook - lists of friends

[[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image34.png|194x62px]]

When clicking on the “number of lists in” column, the name and the description of the lists are presented in a pop-up.

Image 18: Social Media Account and Fans Lists (pop-up)

[[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image35.png|271x127px]]

The system comes with four default fan lists, namely: Associates, Competitors, Press, and Personnel, as presented in Image 19.

[[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image36.png|251x138px]]

You may also review the lists an account belongs to, through the corresponding expander on the account form. Most monitoring lists and dashboards in the system can filter posts and post analysis data based on fan lists.

</blockquote>
Fan lists are standard Entersoft Static Lists, applied on the ESTMSMAccount entity. All lists applied on the particular entity are available in the Customization panel, under the Social Networking node, as presented in Image 20. An action (automation) is also available for creating a new fan list by merely defining a code and a description for the new list; by default a new static list on the ESTMSMAccount entity is then created.

The main administration list (Social networking / Activity administration; Image 21) incorporates information related to the date of the activity, the number of likes/favorites, shares/Retweets, replies/comments per post, the priority score, the assessment of the user and so forth. Similarly to the “Recent Activity” dashboard, the list presents activity from any of the supported social media (i.e. both Twitter and Facebook) and from all of the connected social media accounts and you may choose to focus on the '''''activity by others''''' or even focus on the '''''activity by a specific fan list'''''.

[[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image38.png|457x318px]]

This report provides functionality for the effective '''''daily monitoring''''' of the currently supported post types and, more importantly, '''''efficient interaction''''' with your fans and followers. Here, you can '''''create''''' any of the post types presented in Image 22. Facebook direct messages are also downloaded and listed here; however, sending direct messages as a page to your fans is not currently supported.

Note that, in order to create a post of any of the supported post types, you can ''alternatively'' use the shortcut menu “New”, which is available under the Social Networking node.

* Each post type has a '''''tailored form''''' (e.g. Image 23, Image 24) and provides functionality for:
** Online view
** Viewing any related comments and replies in context
** Viewing any interactions (otherwise called ‘effects’) per post, and so forth.

[[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image41.png|459x342px]]

When creating a new post, regardless its specific type and the social medium, you first need to select the Company Account (Field: “'''''To company account'''''”; i.e. the facebook fan page or the twitter account) you wish the post to be posted to. You can click on the [[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image42.png|17x18px]] button to directly access the social media account that created the specific post.

== Status update ==

In the case of a facebook status update, you simply need to type the text you wish and then save it or post it.

<blockquote>[[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image6.png|22x22px|C:\Users\smp\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5\5ERD3D13\MCj04421290000[1].png]] Note that…
</blockquote>
You can check for spelling mistakes (use the F7 key on keyboard) in any of the following languages: Greek, English, Romanian, and Bulgarian.

When saving a new post, the initial status is “'''''Draft'''''”. To post it to the corresponding Social Network, click on the [[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image43.png|46x18px]] button (or, in case of Twitter, [[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image44.png|53x18px]]). After posting, the status of the Post will change to “'''''Posted'''''”. The various alternative statuses of a social media activity are described in the “Social Network Activities” status collection.

<blockquote>[[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image6.png|22x22px|C:\Users\smp\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5\5ERD3D13\MCj04421290000[1].png]] Note that…
</blockquote>
It is not required to save before posting.

Image 25: Creating a new status update

[[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image45.png|456x228px]]

Having saved/posted your status update, the UI form becomes richer and you can immediately access the following: the '''''content tags''''' (see section: 11), the list of the '''''comments''''' made on this status update, some brief insights regarding the '''''people that saw this post''''', the list of the '''''interactions''''' (see section: 7), and you may also access the '''''online view''''' of the post. The character counter on the right bottom of the form does not denote a limitation or restriction; it is there to help us keep track of the post length.

To delete a post from your facebook timeline press [[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image46.png|81x18px]]; the application will ask you to confirm your intention which, of course, cannot be undone. The status of the post will then change to “'''''Deleted'''''”. The [[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image47.png|57x18px]] button does not affect the posts on your facebook account; it’s there to help you delete '''''drafts''''' etc.

Note that the features and the logic behind posting a status update largely apply to most types of facebook posts.

[[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image48.png|395x728px]]

== Comments &amp; Replies ==

As aforementioned, comments and any replies can be viewed in the context of the main post (through the corresponding expander). As regards the “Activity administration” list, comments are by default excluded from the first level of the list (Image 28). On the list level you can choose to either choose to view the comments in the second level of the list, as shown in Image 29, or you can choose to include them in the first level; this second option will result a twitter-like presentation of the post-comments-replies, i.e. similar to tweets-replies. In the case of twitter, one will view replies both in context and listed in the feed. As shown in Image 27, replies are clearly denoted.

Note that the comment counter at the top includes any replies too.

[[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image52.png|603x365px]]

If you wish to comment on a post, you first need to open it for viewing and then click on the [[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image54.png|77x18px]] button. A new pop up form will then open, as shown in Image 31. The facebook account is automatically filled-in by the system. Besides that, similarly to creating a Status update, you can type your comment and check it for spelling errors and then post it. Assuming that you opened the UI Form of a comment, you can go to its main activity (i.e. the post it refers to) by clicking on the [[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image55.png|111x18px]] button.

Image 31: New comment on an existing post

[[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image57.png|437x287px]]

== Template comments ==

As is often the case, social media account administrators repetitively post standard comments e.g. to encourage users to provide them further details on an issue or contact them in some other way. These messages can be largely standardized in Entersoft Social CRM as “Template Comments”. Template comments can be created and edited in the Customization environment (i.e. menu: Tools and Configuration / Customization / Social networking / Template comments.)

<blockquote>[[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image3.png|22x22px|C:\Users\smp\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5\5ERD3D13\MCj04326210000[1].png]]Note that…
</blockquote>
In Customization, you can define the '''facebook account''' these may be related to and, moreover, a '''description''' that will help the Entersoft Social CRM users easily select the appropriate template comment.

Image 32: A template comment

[[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image58.png|554x223px]]

The containing text of a template comment is not restrictive. Template comments primarily work as a fast and safe way to post new, yet standard comments. The [[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image59.png|27x21px]] button displays the list of the available Template Comments and the user selects one; the text is copied to the new comment and, then, the user may edit and adjust the comment appropriately.

Image 33: Selecting a template comment when editing a new comment

[[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image60.png|553x285px]]

== Posting a link ==

In order to create a link post, you only need to type or paste a link to the corresponding field of a link post. The other data will be automatically filled in by facebook according to the information of the site you are linking to. However, you may wish to define those details according to your preferences and by-pass the site’s defaults. Image 34 presents what field corresponds to what part of the displayed link post. However, you do not get to define your own link image; this depends solely on the site you are linking to and, for the time being, you cannot select one among the available as when you are posting a link directly on facebook.

</blockquote>
If the name of the link exceeds the 100 characters, any characters in the name past this limit will be truncated automatically when posted to facebook. The same applies for the link title (50 characters) and the link description (300 characters).

Image 35: A posted link

[[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image66.png|410x231px]]

== Posting a photo ==

When posting a photo we can optionally define its Title (which facebook will set as the photo’s name too), the album the photo is to be included (if not selected then the default application album will automatically include this photo), and of course the image file. In order to facilitate the selection of a photo that it is desired to be posted, it is possible to select it either from the '''''System’s blob data''''', or from the '''''Attachment List''''' or, alternatively, from the '''''hard disk''''' (Image 37). Therefore, the available content can be effectively and efficiently '''''reused'''''.

</blockquote>
When posting a photo, facebook creates two posts: one for the photo per se and a related photo post. You may choose to exclude from the activity list either the photo or the related photo post, for your convenience. Keep in mind that it is the related post that keeps the information of how many times the photo has been shared (Image 38).

Image 38: Photos and Related Posts

[[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image71.png|483x198px]]

== Posting a video ==

When posting a video you can choose to either post a video from youtube or, alternatively, you can use a video file that is available on the hard disk or as an EBS attachment.

* In order to post a '''''youtube video''''', you need to paste the video’s URL to the field: “link” and, optionally, define the description of the video. If you define a video title, this will be overwritten by the actual video title on youtube.
* The video title is used when posting video files. In this case, you need to allow a short period of time for facebook to send back to Entersoft Social CRM the post info that is defined by facebook, i.e. the “from account”, the “posted on” date, and the URL of the video post, in order for you to be able to use the online view. These data will be updated the next time the application is scheduled to download facebook posts; therefore, it depends on the implementation choices.

<blockquote>[[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image6.png|22x22px|C:\Users\smp\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5\5ERD3D13\MCj04421290000[1].png]] It is recommended that…
</blockquote>
When posting youtube videos you use the URL that youtube provides under the “Share” section; this way you ensure that the video post will be presented as a video player rather than as a common link.

Image 39: Share this video URL

[[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image72.png|282x288px]]

== Posting a milestone ==

When posting a milestone you can define a Title and a description and the time (Image 40). Keep in mind that if you wish to select a photo for your milestone or define its location, facebook requires doing these actions online i.e. either from the online view expander or from the facebook page itself.

Image 40: Creating a new milestone

[[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image73.png|446x249px]]

== Facebook inbox ==

Both Facebook and Twitter direct messages are listed in all administrative lists. However, as regards Facebook a dedicated form has been created; this form simulates the structure of a typical Facebook inbox. As presented in Image 41, the conversations are listed on the left part of the form, grouped by Company Account, whereas on the right the messages exchanged in the context of the selected conversation are listed. Facebook inbox is available under the corresponding menu (i.e. Social Networking / Facebook inbox).

Image 41: Facebook inbox on Entersoft Social CRM

[[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image74.png|596x279px]]

== Sending a direct message on Twitter ==

You can send direct messages to twitter users that have been registered to the Entersoft Social CRM, as shown in Image 42.

Image 42: Twitter | Direct message to a registered twitter account

[[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image75.png|464x252px]]

== Tweet ==

Similarly to when tweeting on twitter, you may type a 140 characters long text and post it to your company twitter account (Image 43). You can mention and use twitter hashtags normally. If you use URLs in your tweet, these will be shortened automatically; therefore, (a) you do not need to shorten them in advance and (b) if the URL you are pasting is longer than a shortened URL (which is highly possible) you need to take into account that your actual tweet will be somewhat shorter.

Image 43: Tweeting about Entersoft Social CRM

[[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image76.png|380x325px]]

You may also '''''reply to tweets''''' from your followers by simply clicking on the reply button on the UI form '''''toolbar''''' of a tweet, as shown in the following image.

[[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image77.png|492x273px]]

The application will automatically add a ‘@&lt;username&gt;’ to the new tweet – reply you will post. You can also reply to tweets though the corresponding line action on '''''the Activity &amp; Interactions''''' dashboard.

= [[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image2.png|37x37px|C:\Users\smp\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5\01D1IRT2\MCj04326100000[1].png]] Facebook albums  =

Besides the standard posts, Entersoft Social CRM also supports '''''Facebook albums'''''. The administration of '''''facebook albums''''' is available at the Social networking / Facebook Albums. In this two-level list, the facebook albums are presented at the first level, grouped by Company Account, i.e. facebook page, and the second level includes the photos that each album contains (Image 44). In this context, the UI Form of the Photo is the online view of the post. You may access the standard post UI Form (described above in section: Posting a photo) by clicking on the button: [[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image79.png|97x18px]].

Image 44: Facebook albums

[[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image80.png|599x447px]]

Here, you may also '''''create a new <span class="underline">standard</span> facebook album'''''. This means that it is not possible to create cover, timeline, wall etc. albums using Entersoft Social CRM. Nevertheless, you may post photos in albums of these types routinely. In order to create a new album you simply need to define the facebook page (i.e. company account) and a name for it.

In the context of a specific facebook album (Image 45), you have access to information equivalent to other posts (i.e. a list of related interactions, comments, etc.). Additionally, there is a list of any draft photos which can be posted by using the context button: [[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image43.png|47x18px]].

The administration of '''''facebook events''''' is available at the Social networking / Facebook Events. This two-level list, presents the events, at the first level, and the event posts, at the second level. Creating events is no longer supported outside Facebook, i.e. through third party applications.

In the context of facebook events, the interactions expander may include much richer information, as described in section: 7, next.

You may also choose to manually download any interactions for a specific post, by clicking on the [[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image86.png|144x18px]]menu. Moreover, you may schedule the interactions update for a specific post, by clicking on the [[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image87.png|136x18px]] menu. In some cases, e.g. in case of events, this can be proven quite useful. When choosing to update activity interactions, the application downloads from the corresponding social network the user info of the fans/followers that interacted with a post. The related info is listed per post on the UI form, as presented in Image 47 and Image 48.

</blockquote>
In order to schedule the automatic update of the interactions with all '''recent''' activity, i.e. any activity within the defined lifespan (see also the definition of: The average lifespan of a post, on page 6), the application provides a recent activity list, namely: “Update recent activity interactions (within lifespan)”, and the corresponding automation. You may schedule the update by creating a new scheduled job in the list: Scheduled tasks“, which is available under the Tools and Configuration / Schedule menu.

In general, marketers aim to broaden the audience of the facebook pages they manage in order to promote products and services most effectively. One of the most popular methods, widely used by social media marketers, for increasing the number of facebook page fans is running facebook contests.

Facebook contests are, generally, small-scale web sites accessible through a dedicated '''page''' '''tab''' and, therefore, contextually available within the facebook fan page.

<blockquote>[[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image3.png|22x22px|C:\Users\smp\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5\5ERD3D13\MCj04326210000[1].png]] Creating a contest on facebook | The role of facebook apps
</blockquote>
A contest web site and a facebook fan page are associated through a facebook application that manages the obtainability and operation of the contest site within the facebook fan page. Specifically, through its apps, Facebook supports the creation of i-frames that allow the contest to be embedded within a specific facebook page.

So, in order to run a contest on a facebook page it is needed to:

<ol style="list-style-type: lower-alpha;">
<li><p>'''Become a ‘facebook verified developer’'''.</p></li></ol>

<blockquote>And make sure that you have access to [https://developers.facebook.com/ developers.facebook.com] and that you are allowed to create new apps and so forth.
</blockquote>
<ol start="2" style="list-style-type: lower-alpha;">
<li><p>'''Create the contest web site'''.</p></li></ol>

<blockquote>Make sure that you follow the specific facebook guidelines as regards its configuration and UI restrictions. Moreover, utilize the available facebook methods that will ensure a smooth and meaningful user experience.

</blockquote>
<ol start="3" style="list-style-type: lower-alpha;">
<li><p>'''Create the facebook app'''.</p></li></ol>

<blockquote>I.e. visit [https://developers.facebook.com/apps developers.facebook.com/apps] and let facebook know about the contest, define the contest in the way that facebook ‘understands’ it. It is strongly recommended to extend the facebook application that you have used as the Connector between the SocialCRM and your Fan page (see section: 15, on page: 64), instead of creating a new app.
</blockquote>
<ol start="4" style="list-style-type: lower-alpha;">
<li><p>'''Associate the facebook app with your fan page'''.</p></li></ol>

<blockquote>Make the contest app accessible from a specific fan page

</blockquote>
Further info is available on: [https://developers.facebook.com/ developers.facebook.com]. However, for focused info, support, contest templates etc. please, contact Entersoft directly.

When a facebook user participates in a facebook contest the following steps are, most commonly, followed:

* The user is required to “like” (i.e. become a fan of) the facebook page in order to participate
* The user is asked to grant some permissions to the contest application (most commonly these permissions include the user’s public profile and email)
* Having granted the permissions, the user is typically asked to fill-in a form with personal info (e.g. name, email, gender, country of residence and so forth) or, even more so, answer a question or state a preference.
* The user is thanked for participating and (s)he is given the option to share the contest with his/her facebook friends.

Entersoft may, additionally, provide the Facebook contest admin. This '''''extra, optional tool''''' is actually accessible through a custom URL and it aims to help marketers to create new contests within minutes, while ensuring that the technical issues and difficulties are handled by the tool itself.

The prerequisites are:

* Design (e.g. using Adobe Photoshop) a contest according to the specifications of the provided template.
* Declare the facebook app as described above (see: Create the facebook app)

The tool is integrated with the Entersoft Social CRM and it allows you to:

* Select the facebook page (among those you administer) you wish a contest to be associated with
* The user may select to create a new contest where (s)he may define the:
** AppID,
** the desired display name
** the App secret and
** the namespace

<blockquote>all as provided by Facebook.
</blockquote>
* Moreover, the user can define the duration and a description for the contest.

These data (Facebook page, AppID, duration etc) the will be used by the Entersoft Social CRM in order to automatically create the Contest entry in the back-end (see: Contests &amp; Contest apps on Entersoft Social CRM). The tool also associates the

The tool allows you:

* to review the list of contests that are currently active on this particular page or still in a drafts state and so forth
* and, assuming that you have created a new contest, to edit and adjust its setting by selecting the contest for editing.

These are the auto-completion of the facebook user’s email, the uploading of the Terms of Use and the uploading of the contest background and control (e.g. buttons, fields) images.

== Contests &amp; Contest apps on Entersoft Social CRM ==

Assuming that you have created the contest and associated to your fan page, the question that arises is: where is or should all this info about participants be stored and how can it be monitored, analyzed, utilized etc? Entersoft SocialCRM may provide a comprehensive answer to the above.

In order to define a contest in Entersoft SocialCRM, go to Social Networking / Facebook contests. There you may create a new contest (e.g. Image 52, if you have not used the Entersoft facebook contest admin tool), i.e.

* Define the Fan page (company account) it concerns.
* Provide a description for the contest.
* Update the contest status (i.e. whether the contest is currently active, completed, cancelled and so forth).
* Set the period of time during which the contest will be active for fans to participate in.

The information related to the contest status and the period it’s active '''''can''''' and '''''should be''''' used by the Contest web site in order to ensure that the contest will be completed automatically when live. The default Entersoft Social CRM solution requires that the contest is Active within the specified period of time for a user to be able to participate. You may also define content tags (see section 11), similarly to all other social media activity, as shown in Image 52.

[[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image93.png|450x298px]]

'''''Contest web site templates''''' can be provided by Entersoft upon request. By default, these templates include the following steps:

* '''''Step 1''''' | If the user is not a fan, then (s)he is asked to like the page before proceeding (Image 53). If the user is already a fan, then this step is skipped.

Image 53: Entersoft Facebook contest template | Step 1

[[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image94.png|390x137px]]

'''''Step 2''''' | The user is informed about the prizes, the contest duration and terms of use and a call of action (e.g. Participate now!) becomes available (Image 54). If the user clicks on the participation button, (s)he is asked to grant permission to the contest facebook app. As aforementioned, the requested permissions depend on the info you wish to collect; nevertheless, public info is the minimum mandatory permission that can be requested (Image 52). If the user has previously granted access to the specific facebook app, this pop-up dialogue is of course skipped. At this point, the web site uses the info stored in the Entersoft SocialCRM to check<ref>[[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image3.png|22x22px|C:\Users\smp\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5\5ERD3D13\MCj04326210000[1].png]]'''''ESTMSMContestParticipants''''': This view (scroller) returns whether a user has already participated or not in a specific contest. The scroller dictates the use of the application ID and optionally the user account ID. When only the AppID is provided to this view, the view can be alternatively used for the web site to acquire the contest end date (in UTC time)</ref> whether the user has already participated in the specific contest. If the user has previously participated then the site will skip the third step and will move on to the last step. Each user is allowed to participate in a contest only once.

The default fields are: first &amp; last name, email and district<ref>[[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image3.png|22x22px|C:\Users\smp\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5\5ERD3D13\MCj04326210000[1].png]]As regards the available templates, the list of districts depends on the data returned by the view: '''''ESGOZDistrictGR'''''. This view filters any Greek districts available in the Entersoft SocialCRM DB.</ref>; all of them are by default mandatory and the validity of the email format is checked.

<blockquote>When the user selects “SEND”, the information filled-in by the user and the information provided by Facebook (depending on the granted permissions) is stored in the Entersoft SocialCRM database (see next section, below).
</blockquote>
* '''''Step 4''''' | At the final step the participant is given the option to invite his/her friends.

== Live contest monitoring, participants and winners ==

The minute a page fan takes part in the contest, the participation is recorded in the Entersoft Social CRM as a '''''Contest effect''''', allowing you to monitor '''''real-time''''' the contest participations. This can be achieved through:

* The '''''context list''''' on the Contest form (Image 58), where the contest interactions (effects) are listed (see also section 7). Here, you may also select the contest winners ([[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image99.png|103x21px]]) and undo this action ([[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image100.png|117x21px]]), if needed. You also have the option to '''''delete a participation''''' if required.

Image 58: Contest form: the context list of the participants

[[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image101.png|506x317px]]

* The '''''Participants - Winners list''''' (Image 59), where the form data are also listed (menu: Social Networking / Facebook contests). This list comprises of three parts: (1) Information from the participant’s facebook account; (2) Information registered by the participant on the contest form; (3) Basic info on the associated Person.

Image 59: Participants-Winners list

[[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image102.png|576x220px]]

The lists display information that the contest site collects. Specifically:

'''''Form data''''' | The default fields on the form are: (i) Name; (ii) Last Name; (iii) Email; (iv) District.

<blockquote>[[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image3.png|22x22px|C:\Users\smp\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5\5ERD3D13\MCj04326210000[1].png]]Task Type: Contest
</blockquote>
The default contest form fields are defined on the Task Type with International Code: “ES.SMCo” as User Defined Fields of the ESTMTaskItem table.

'''''Facebook data''''' | The facebook user account fields that can be stored on the “Social Media Account” Entity are: (i) User ID, (ii) Username, (iii) Name, (iv) email address, (v) gender, (vi) birthday, (vii) age group<ref>Possible age ranges are 13-17, 18-20, and 21+.</ref>, (viii) language (locale), and (ix) country (see also: Section 3; Image 8).

<blockquote>[[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image3.png|22x22px|C:\Users\smp\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5\5ERD3D13\MCj04326210000[1].png]]Contest app permissions
</blockquote>
Note that the above depend on the default facebook app permissions (Public Profile and Friend List<ref>See: [https://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/login/public-profile-and-friend-list/ developers.facebook.com/ ... /public-profile-and-friend-list]</ref>) while the email address and the birthday require special permissions<ref>See: [https://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/api/user/ developers.facebook.com/ ... /user/] and note that your use of email must comply both with [https://www.facebook.com/legal/terms Facebook policies] and with the [http://www.business.ftc.gov/documents/bus61-can-spam-act-compliance-guide-business CAN-SPAM Act] ([https://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/login/email-permissions/ developers.facebook.com])</ref>.

'''''Person data''''' | Based on the email address provided on the contest form, the application attempts to identify an existing Person and associate it to the facebook account – participant. If this search does not return any results then the application creates a new Person for the participant, using the data provided by the user on the contest form.

Note that there is an action available for the '''''bulk update of the public profile''''' of '''''contest participants''''' (menu: Social networking / Participants – Winners / Get profile of all participants and context on the particular scroller). The action is available to administrators only and the system will ask the user to confirm its intention for the execution of the above action before proceeding.

Similarly to all other interactions with a facebook fan page, the interactions with a Contest (i.e. participations) can be viewed:

* Per user account (Image 60)
* In the context of the overall social activity analysis (Image 61)
* In the Interactors list (see: Participations; Image 14)

== Contest insights ==

This context dashboard “'''''Participation analysis'''''” presents information about the number of participants and winners, their distribution during the contest, the participant’s gender percentages, the most active days and hours

Image 62: Participation analysis

[[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image105.png|397x329px]]

Moreover, the “Page demographics” dashboard (go to page 59, for further info on the particular dashboard) is available in the contest context. As presented in Image 63, this allows the Entersoft Social CRM user to examine the fan base growth during the contest. Even though it is generally not expected that the fan base growth during a contest will totally depend on the participations, these insights can provide an approximate overview of the contest results.

</blockquote>
The application performs a series of checks to ensure that it is actually meaningful to generate complaints, service cases, and KBs from social media activity. Specifically:

* The user that created the post must be other than the Company Account User – Page, to whom it was posted to. In case of KBs, the check is simply a warning.
* When creating a Service Case, the system also checks whether the Social Media Company Account, where to the service request was posted, is officially monitored as Service Account by the system (see section: 15 , Image 94) and returns a warning if not.

The '''''associations''''' between social activity tasks and standard CRM tasks are accessible from the “'''''activity associations'''''” expander on every social activity.

A series of '''''ERP and CRM entities''''' can be used to '''''generate social activity'''''. This version supports the generation of social activity from Inventory Items, Knowledge base articles, and Events.

== …from Inventory Items ==

As regards '''''Inventory Items''''', a number of actions allow you to easily '''''reuse''''' the existing content and post it to your Facebook page or your Twitter account.

</blockquote>
Two new eCommerce Company Parameters (Image 68) can be used to define the structure of the product URL at your eCommerce site, supporting thus the direct posting of the URL of a specific item to your fan page or your Twitter account; therefore, the efforts to actively direct your fans and followers to your web site are significantly facilitated.

[[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image111.png|518x39px]]

Moreover, you may optionally define the '''''Marketing Campaign''''' under which this post is created. In case the current item has been associated with the Campaign, a special column in the investigation list will inform the user in order to support him or her in selecting the proper campaign.

[[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image113.png|517x167px]]

== …from KB Articles ==

You can create social media activity (tweets and facebook status updates) starting from a KB article as long as it has been defined that the specific KB article can be posted to Social media. This can be done by defining the Social Media as the article’s medium. To a'''''ctivate the Social media as the article’s medium''''', you need to click on the [[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image114.png|17x18px]] button that is available in the Social media activity expander. Click on the [[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image115.png|17x18px]] button to declare that the article cannot be published to social media.

Similarly to when creating posts or tweets from an Inventory Item, you may optionally define the '''''Marketing Campaign''''' under which this post is created.

<blockquote>[[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image3.png|22x22px|C:\Users\smp\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5\5ERD3D13\MCj04326210000[1].png]]If you use a custom UI form…

…and the new expander is not automatically available to you, then the two actions described above (i.e. can / cannot be posted to Social media) will be available under the Automations menu on the KB Article toolbar.

Image 71: A KB article that can be posted to Social media

[[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image116.png|484x257px]]

'''''Facebook albums''''' can also be easily generated from knowledge base articles of the corresponding category (category: KB Article / Category value: ES.Facebook_album). Any KB that has been categorized as facebook album and that can be posted to social media, becomes available in the Albums list (menu: Social networking / Albums). Note that a KB must not necessarily be categorized as facebook album in order to post it as such; the system will warn you if you try to post a KB of some other category as an album but it will not stop you. Nevertheless, only the KBs that have been explicitly categorized as facebook albums will be included in the Album list.

The KB article image attachments that are of a specific category (any existing attachment category or a new one; see: Image 72) are to be posted as photos in an album. You may choose to post the photos in an existing or a new album. Also, you may optionally define the '''''Marketing Campaign''''' under which an album is created.

All types of posts have a special expander called '''''Content tags''''': this expander introduces a special functionality that allows you to assign '''''tags''''' that describe the content of each post i.e. '''''Content tags'''''.

In order to utilize the tagging functionality you need to go to Tools and Configuration / Customization / Organization parameters / Entities – content tags / Word groups. There you may define several '''''word groups''''' i.e. groups of '''''words or phrases that convey or describe the same or a similar concept'''''. The '''''name''''' of the word group summarizes, in a way, these distinct words and phrases. For example, one may create a word group called “Social Media”. This word group may include numerous words and phrases related to Social media, such as: facebook, twitter, youtube, post, fan etc. (e.g. Image 74).

Besides the explicit words and phrases that may be defined, in a declarative manner, in the context of a word group, you may also select a '''''color''''' and an '''''icon''''' that describe best the word group. Optionally, you can provide a description and an alternative description for the word groups you create. Moreover, you may assign a word group multiple categories (define them: Tools and Configuration / Customization / Organization parameters / Entities – content tags / Word group – Categories and then assign them by using the [[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image119.png|19x18px]] button at the '''''Description and categories expander''''').

</blockquote>
A word group does not necessarily include words and phrases and some implementation purposes may necessitate that you create or advice the creation of empty word groups.

For example, you may choose to create some word groups that will be intended to provide an overall assessment of a post, e.g. positive, negative and so forth. Such an empty word group is presented in Image 75. In this example, the word group “positive” has been also categorized as “Overall” in order to allow us to focus on this and other similar word groups when analyzing the data later.

Empty word groups cannot be automatically assigned as tags to posts; these are intended exclusively for manual tagging. Note that the instance of a word group on a post and its attributes (i.e. whether it’s added by user and the number of occurrences) is what’s called a content tag.

<blockquote>[[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image6.png|22x22px|C:\Users\smp\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5\5ERD3D13\MCj04421290000[1].png]] Note that…
</blockquote>
The name of the word group is not used by the system when performing the automated tagging; therefore, in several cases you may need to consider including the name of the word tag as a word/phrase; as in the case of the “Social Media” word group, demonstrated in Image 48.

Image 75: Utilization of empty word groups

[[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image121.png|322x145px]]

Having defined the word groups you can now use them to tag the content of the posts on your accounts. Note that any posts downloaded or created after the configuration of the word groups will be '''''automatically processed and tagged'''''. To ensure that the automatic tagging is applied to the posts you have already downloaded or posted, go to: Social networking / Activity &amp; Content tags, select the posts you prefer, and execute the '''''bulk, automated content tagging''''' action, as shown in Image 76. You may also wish to execute the bulk content tagging after having reorganized your word groups and the words/phrases in them.

<blockquote>[[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image6.png|22x22px|C:\Users\smp\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5\5ERD3D13\MCj04421290000[1].png]] Note that…
</blockquote>
Only textual data are automatically analyzed and tagged.

The '''''Activity &amp; Content''''' list presents the posts on your accounts organized by Content tag. It is highly probable that a post has more than one content tags; in the case of such posts it is anticipated that these will appear more than once in the particular list depending on the number of their distinct tags. The list also includes info about the tags in total that have been assigned to a post, the occurrences of the tag in the activity content, and the user that added the tag, when manually added.

Image 76: Activity &amp; Content tags | Automatic content tagging of existing posts

[[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image122.png|144x83px]][[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image123.png|421x230px]]

The number of occurrences denotes how many times the system manages to identify one or more words/phrases of the word group in a specific post. Manually added tags are marked with an '''''asterisk'''''.

This information is also available at the '''''Content tags''''' expander of the various UI forms of all sorts of social media activities. Specifically, the '''''tag cloud''''' control, that is available on all social media activities, uses the '''''size of the tag''''' to indicate the number of the occurrences (the specific number of occurrences is available as a tooltip), and the '''''asterisk''''' to denote that the tag was manually added (the specific user is available as a tooltip); finally, the content tag '''''color''''' is the color defined on the corresponding word group.

To manually tag a post, select “'''''Insert'''''” on the right click menu, on the tag cloud control. You may '''''delete''''' a content tag, using the corresponding right click menu entry. More importantly, you may '''''access its definition''''' and dynamically review (i.e. add, delete, or merely confirm) the words/phrases in the word group.

The '''''automated content tagging''''' action is here available too: this will recalculate any tags that have been added automatically (update the number of occurrences, maybe delete a tag or add another and so on). On the other hand, no manually added tags will be deleted. If the recalculation of tags results that the manually added tags can also be added automatically, then the system will simply update their occurrences. Note that when a user manually tags a post, the occurrences of this tag are, initially, zero.

The content tag related information can be used for various purposes such as sentiment analysis, crisis management, content-based monitoring etc. For these to be done efficiently and effectively, the '''''content analysis''''' interactive dashboard (Image 78) is available under the Social Networking menu. The overview of the content analysis is presented in the form of a '''''summarizing tag cloud'''''. The specific dashboard allows you, among, others, to f'''''ocus on a specific category of content tags'''''.

[[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image125.png|492x373px]]

The top right table also presents information on the number of the occurrences and the total number of posts per content tag.

By clicking on a content tag, the dashboard reveals focused information on the selected content tag:

* '''''List of posts''''' that have the selected tag (bottom right, list)
* '''''Analysis per post type''''' (bottom left, bar chart), i.e. the number of occurrences and posts for a specific content tag analyzed per post type. By clicking on a bar (that corresponds to a specific type of posts) the dashboards filters the '''''list of posts''''' accordingly (additively to the selected content tag).
* '''''Cross-tag analysis''''' (bottom left, table), i.e. this table presents the content tags that occur simultaneously with the content tag that has been selected in the top right table and, moreover, in what proportion; additionally, the percentage the content tags occurs on its own is shown.

<blockquote>By clicking on a content-tag in the cross-tag analysis table, the dashboards filters the '''''list of posts''''' accordingly (additively to the selected content tag on the top right table) and, therefore, it allows you to focus on the posts where the specific combination of tags occurs (e.g. Social Media and Competition, or Competition and Negative etc.).

As described in Section 2, there are several cases when it is necessary to focus on particular discussions that have occurred on a Company’s account.

Image 79: Discussions to be reported

[[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image127.png|574x421px]]

For example, in case of a comment by a fan that necessitated our immediate reply, one would later need to review:

* the original post
* the comment per se
* the page manager’s reply

…while all other activity that was not a part of this ‘discussion’ is excluded (e.g. comments by other users on the same original post), in order to support the meaningful and focused reviewing. Additionally, the following information can also help us determine the importance of the discussion and the effectiveness of our reaction:

* some brief statistical info, when available
* date-time info
* any related, internal communication that has been recorded
* the specific content tags that were assigned
* Some concise justification on why the discussion is included in the particular report

The Activity &amp; Interactions dashboard (Section 2) allows you to formulate this kind of information quickly and on time (i.e. flag posts as “To be reported” and record any related internal communication. The report “Discussions to be reported” presents this information in a structured format that can be easily shared for high-level, focused monitoring.

</blockquote>
In order to share this report it is recommended to, first, expand all its levels (up to three levels, plus the grouping level) and then select the “'''print preview'''” action that’s available on the report’s toolbar.

On the preview screen you can adjust the presentation settings as desired and then '''save it as PDF'''.

== Facebook Posts &amp; Context Insights ==

Bear in mind that facebook provides insights only for some types of posts (e.g. comments, replies, and direct messages are excluded) that were created by the page itself (not by “others”). Having taken this into consideration, the following insights are available in this version.

=== People that saw a post ===

This context dashboard presents the basic metrics of a post (on facebook page, posted by the page itself) as regards impressions (organic and viral, total and unique) and the number of engaged users.

[[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image128.png|673x145px]]

=== Negative feedback ===

This context dashboard present information regarding the negative feedback recorded for a specific post. The dashboard provides the definitions of each metric and measurement key that is presented in order to facilitate comprehension.

[[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image129.png|378x311px]]

== Activity &amp; Insights ==

A list of the basic post insights is provided through this interactive dashboard (Social networking / Insights &amp; Analysis / Activity &amp; Insights). The dashboard lists the posts by the company account, created within a specific period of time. The default sorting is descending by its post’s total reach. However, the posts can be sorted by viral or organic reach, by the number of engaged users or by the post engagement rate, or by the internally calculated post priority.

* The user can update the post insights info, by clicking on the [[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image130.png|190x21px]] button.
* The dashboard also supports the creation of a new post, through the corresponding drop down selector in order to quickly create a new post based on the fans responsiveness to existing posts.

Image 82: Facebook | Activity &amp; Insights

[[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image131.png|528x271px]]

== Top activity ==

Similar information is provided by the “Top activities” list; however, on this list the emphasis is on both the post content and the fundamental post insights, including: likes, comments, shares, reach (viral, paid, organic, and total) and the engagement rate. The top activities are sorted by engagement rate (Social networking / Insights &amp; Analysis / Top activities; Image 83). This list is primarily intended for reporting this information in a structured format that can be easily shared for high-level, focused monitoring.

Image 83: Top activities

[[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image132.png|435x173px]]

== Page overview ==

This dashboard (Social networking / Insights &amp; Analysis / Facebook | Page overview) summarizes, on a monthly basis, all of the metrics that are considered as '''''fundamental''''' in order to appreciate the effectiveness of the content you post on a specific facebook page, in terms of '''''reach''''' and '''''engagement'''''.

=== Page fans ===

On the first tab (Image 84), the dashboard presents some basic information about the number of the '''''page fans''''', the '''''new fans''''' acquired in the selected period and the '''''lost fans''''' within the same period of time.

Note that the dashboard also presents the percentage of change for each distinct metric in relation to one month earlier. Moreover it offers a diagrammatical view of the progress of each metric in time. This applies to all metrics presented, in any of the dashboard tabs, i.e. the Page engagement and Page Impressions (Reach) tab.

Further information and analysis related to Facebook page fans is available at: Page demographics, p. 59.

Image 84: Page overview | Page fans

[[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image133.png|414x288px]]

=== Page engagement ===

On the second tab (Image 85), the dashboard presents engagement-related information; i.e. information about the '''''engagement rate''''', the '''''engaged users''''', the '''''people talking about this''''', and the '''''unique page consumptions'''''.

Note that the dashboard provides rich informative tooltips for all of the presented metrics, regardless the dashboard tab under study. Therefore, if some of the presented metrics are not clear to the user, contextual information is provided in order to ensure that there are clarified.

Additionally, this dashboard tab presents information related to the stories and the consumptions about the selected facebook page analyzed '''''by type'''''.

Image 85: Page overview | Page engagement

[[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image134.png|430x864px]]

=== Page impressions (Reach) ===

The third tab (Image 86) presents impression-related information; i.e. information about the '''''Total''''' (i.e. unique page impressions) the '''''organic''''' (i.e. unique organic page impressions), the '''''viral''''' (i.e. unique viral page impressions), and the '''''paid reach''''' (i.e. unique paid page impressions) of the selected Facebook page. Moreover, the dashboard tab includes information about the page impressions (unique or not) by '''''Story type'''''. Further information and analysis related to Facebook page fans is available at: Page impressions and views, p. 61.

Image 86: Page overview | Page impressions (Reach)

[[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image135.png|463x238px]]

== Page demographics ==

The analysis of the fans’ demographics constitutes one of the most fundamental analyses that can be performed for a social media account.

Metrics such as:

* The gender of the fans
* Their age group
* Their country
* Their city
* And their locale

…can vastly determine the content that is to be posted.

The specific dashboard (Social networking / Insights &amp; Analysis / Facebook | Page demographics) also provides:

* Information about the '''''percentage change''''' in relation to the previous period time.
* Functionality for '''''comparing the performance''''' (in terms of fan base growth) of any number of facebook pages within the same bundle (group).
* Interactive maps (by Google or/and Bing) for the effective visualization of the fans’ distribution in countries and cities.

Image 87: Facebook | Page demographics

[[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image136.png|544x406px]]

== [[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image3.png|37x37px|C:\Users\smp\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5\5ERD3D13\MCj04326210000[1].png]]Update map data ==

Facebook analytics that refer to Countries and Cities are also available on maps in order to facilitate the purposes of a concise and meaningful presentation. Entersoft Social CRM allows you to '''''obtain''''' the latitude - longitude data for the cities (city descriptions) and the countries (country ISO codes) that have been downloaded in the context of facebook insights.

This can be achieved through the “'''''Update map data from Google'''''” automation that is provided on the “'''''Insights: Update map data'''''” list (menu: Tools and Configuration / Customization / Social Networking / Update map data). The action obtains the latitude - longitude data using a Google service<ref>The Google Geocoding API: [https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/geocoding/ google.com/geocoding]</ref> and updates the Entersoft Social CRM Database.

<blockquote>[[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image2.png|22x22px|C:\Users\smp\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5\01D1IRT2\MCj04326100000[1].png]]Show on map
</blockquote>
You may also use the framework action “Show map” (that is available under the Action menu on the “Insights: Update map data” list) to review the listed information on a Bing or Google map.

<blockquote>[[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image3.png|22x22px|C:\Users\smp\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5\5ERD3D13\MCj04326210000[1].png]]The Google Geocoding API
</blockquote>
It is strongly recommended to carefully read the conditions and restrictions described in [https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/geocoding/ google.com/geocoding] e.g. to avoid penalties for excessive use etc.

== Page impressions and views ==

Another crucial set of metrics is this of page impressions and views. These can be examined through this interactive dashboard (Social networking / Insights &amp; Analysis / Facebook | Impressions &amp; Views) which:

* Includes '''''all facebook metrics''''' related to '''''impressions''''' and '''''views'''''
* Provides the '''''definitions''''' of all metrics in order to facilitate comprehension
* By clicking on a measurement on a specific date, the dashboard allows you to access the “Social media activity” view (scroller) in order to '''''review the posts in the time period''''' from three days before the selected date and until that specific date.
* Presents the '''''maximum''''' and '''''minimum''''' measurements within the selected period of time.
* Lists the external referrals, if any.
* Finally, it allows you to examine how many viewed your posts, grouped by number of post views (i.e. frequency distribution of unique post impressions).

[[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image138.png|331x228px]]

== Page negative feedback ==

This dashboard (Social networking / Insights &amp; Analysis / Facebook | Page negative feedback) allows you to examine the negative feedback by your page fans and other users.

Image 90: Page negative feedback

[[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image139.png|641x414px]]

Similarly to the other dashboards:

* Includes '''''all facebook metrics''''' related to page '''''negative''''' '''''feedback'''''
* Provides the '''''definitions''''' of all metrics and measurements in order to facilitate comprehension
* By clicking on a measurement on a specific date, the dashboard allows you to access the “Social media activity” view (scroller) in order to '''''review the posts in the time period''''' from three days before the selected date and until that specific date.
* And allows you to focus on the number of times people took a negative action broken down by time, within the selected period of time.

== Watch other pages  ==

The public insights of Facebook pages not owned by us that we have chosen to monitor (see: '''''public insights''''') are reported through the new dashboard: '''''Facebook | Watch other pages''''', which is available on the menu: Social Networking / Insights and Analysis. The reported insights include a comparison chart of the total number of page fans of the pages we have decided to watch and any Facebook company account we monitor in the Entersoft Social CRM. Moreover, the dashboard allows you to focus on a specific page you watch and review its fans per country, for a specified period of time.

One or more Facebook and / or Twitter accounts can be monitored at the same time. You may select the Social Media Accounts you wish to manage by Entersoft Social CRM and connect to them (menu: Tools and Configuration / Customization / Social Networking / Company Accounts). In order to connect to a Social Media Account, first you need to select the Social Network (Facebook / Twitter are currently supported) and, then, the corresponding '''''connector'''''. Click on the “Connect” button and provide the account credentials. You can “Renew access approval” in the future, if necessary.

<blockquote>Creating a Connector on facebook| The role of facebook apps
</blockquote>
[[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image141.png|292x702px]]SocialCRM and facebook fan pages are associated through a facebook application that handles the accessibility and cooperation of the two systems.

This means that Connectors are actually facebook applications: at least one facebook application needs to be created and associated to SocialCRM for every implementation / installation.

So, in order to create a Connector as a facebook application it is needed to:

<ol style="list-style-type: lower-alpha;">
<li><p>'''Become a ‘facebook verified developer’'''.</p></li></ol>

<blockquote>And make sure that you have access to [https://developers.facebook.com/ developers.facebook.com] and that you are allowed to create new apps and so forth.
</blockquote>
<ol start="2" style="list-style-type: lower-alpha;">
<li><p>'''Create the facebook app'''.</p></li></ol>

<blockquote>I.e. visit [https://developers.facebook.com/apps developers.facebook.com/apps] and let facebook know about the new Connector you wish to create.The following steps will guide you through the configuration of a new facebook app for the specific purpose:
</blockquote>
* Go to '''My apps'''
* Add a new app &gt; '''Facebook canvas'''
* Type the '''name''' for new app, '''Create new app id''' &amp; '''Save'''
* Got the app’s '''Basic Settings'''
* Define the '''Display Name''' &amp; the '''Namespace'''
* If the app is intended to be used for contests as well then '''Add Platform''' too (see section: 8 on page: 34).
* Ensure that advanced settings are as in the image on the right.
* Finally, make sure that the Fan Page/Company Account Administrator is also defined as the Facebook Application Administrator (in the '''Roles''' tab).
* Do not forget to publish the application ('''Status &amp; review''' / Status: '''published''')

<ol start="3" style="list-style-type: lower-alpha;">
<li><p>'''Define the Connector in the Entersoft Application context'''</p></li></ol>

<blockquote>In the ESNoSync folder of the Entersoft Application create a plain text file:<br />

In case of Facebook, if the account includes more than one Pages / Users, the system will return a list of these and you are expected to select one (Image 93). Some additional account info, provided by the selected social network, will be automatically filled in.

<blockquote>[[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image6.png|22x22px|C:\Users\smp\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5\5ERD3D13\MCj04421290000[1].png]] Note that…
</blockquote>
In case of Facebook, only “Fan Pages” are supported.

Image 93: List of Facebook Pages / Users under a single Facebook Account

[[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image143.png|216x61px]]

When connected to a Company Account you may '''''schedule''''' the downloading of the account activity (by clicking on:[[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image144.png|158x18px]]).

In case of Facebook accounts '''''only''''', you may also:

* Download the '''''page level insights''''' and '''''schedule''''' the frequency of future downloads of the statistical data. Moreover, you may download '''''past insights'''''. The Entersoft Social CRM will download all insights starting from as many days ago as defined in the company parameter: “'''''Number of days for downloading past insights'''''” and until the most recent available. Note that the default period of time is set to be 90 days (3 months approximately); the number of days can be theoretically as large as you wish; however it is recommended not to exceed the 365 days (1 year).
* Access the '''''online account insights''''' as these are provided by Facebook (Image 92, “Online Insights” expander) and the '''''list of your fans''''' (“Fans” expander).

<blockquote>[[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image6.png|22x22px|C:\Users\smp\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5\5ERD3D13\MCj04421290000[1].png]] Note that…
</blockquote>
In order to access the Insights / List of fans (i.e. any social media data that is not publically accessible) it is required to login to your facebook/Twitter account. The facebook / Twitter login session will be closed after exiting the application; therefore Social CRM users are advised to login to the social media accounts they manage, within the ES Application. In case of Facebook in particular, make sure that you login as a page manager rather than the page per se.

* Moreover, here you define the '''''User Groups''''' that may access the account activity or/and create new posts. Granting user privileges at this level provides effective and meaningful row-level security; hence, different users can access different social media activity when accessing the same lists and forms.
* Additionally, the customizable '''''workflow groups''''' allow you to focus on purpose-specific social media accounts e.g. on a Twitter account specialized for providing advanced online customer service and support. These can be defined in customization (menu: Tools and Configuration / Customization / Social Networking / Company Accounts – Workflow groups). It is recommended to link any Social Media Accounts, primarily used for Service purposes, to the Service workflow group that is defined in the corresponding Company Parameter (Image 94).

</blockquote>
When inserting a Company Account, a regular Social Media Account is also created. You can access this by clicking on the [[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image146.png|89x18px]] button and vice versa; i.e. you can access the Company Account (if any) from a Social Media Account, by clicking on the [[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image28.png|144x18px]] button.

</blockquote>
For reporting purposes, it is strongly recommended to associate the Social Media Accounts of your Company Accounts to the Person that represents your Company.

= [[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image3.png|37x37px|C:\Users\smp\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5\5ERD3D13\MCj04326210000[1].png]]Downloading social media activity =

The social media activity is downloaded per company account either automatically, based on the scheduling settings you have defined (see section: 15), or on demand. In order to download the activity on demand, one should go to the list of Facebook posts or the list of Tweets correspondingly.

By selecting the “'''''Download posts'''''” action which is available on these two lists, a dialogue similar to the one presented in Image 95 will be displayed. Only the accounts accessible by the current user are available, similarly to any other Social CRM list. Note that the specific dialogue is presented only when meaningful, i.e. only if more than one Facebook / Twitter company accounts exist.

Image 95: Downloading posts on demand

[[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image147.png|289x161px]]

The Entersoft Social CRM ensures the automatic registration of the downloaded posts as '''''Social Media Activity Tasks''''' in order to allow the substantial integration with the standard Entersoft CRM.

The downloaded posts are automatically registered as Activity Tasks based on the results of the customizable “'''''Auto-registration list'''''” (Tools and Configuration / Customization / Social Networking / Auto-registration). This approach ensures the substantial reduction of ‘noise’ and, by default, the exclusion of any (typically many) Facebook auto-created stories, which do not convey any particular CRM value.

Nevertheless, the non-registered posts are also included in the recent activity analysis dashboard. Such posts are not accompanied by the [[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image148.png|18x18px]] icon, as shown in Image 96. In any case, the manual / ad hoc registration of the downloaded posts is fully supported.

Image 96: Recent activity dashboard | registered and non-registered activity

[[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image149.png|577x86px]]

For the (auto-) registration to be completed successfully, the Social CRM task types and the related customization must have been imported in advance.

<blockquote>[[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image8.png|22x22px|C:\Users\smp\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5\5ERD3D13\MCj04421280000[1].png]] Baseline social CRM configuration

Use the Entersoft migration tool, which can be accessed from the Tools and Configuration / Import-Export data / Import data (advanced mode) and execute migration scenario that is available under the ESMigration\ESCRMZero application folder.

Since 2014, Facebook proceeded to a series of major upgrades related to the way it communicates with third party applications through its API (see: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/apps/changelog). These upgrades vastly affected Entersoft SocialCRM. One of the most important changes was that facebook made available to 3<sup>rd</sup> party apps a App-scoped AccountID for Page Fan Interactors rather than their one, universal (and, until then, public) AccountID. This means that Entersoft had to update the IDs of all of the listed Facebook User Accounts. This update is invoked manually and your consultant will guide you through it. The following are needed for this process:

<ul>
<li><p>An '''''Entersoft application''''' of version 4.0.38.1 or later.</p></li>
<li><p>A '''''new Facebook Connector'''''. For registering a new, installation specific connector: see section 15.</p></li>
<li><p>The MigrateSocialMediaAccountTool.exe which needs to be installed in the Entersoft application folder. When executed, you need to '''''login''''' using administrative Entersoft Application Credentials and then define the following:</p>
<ul>
<li><p>'''''Configuration'''''</p>
<ol style="list-style-type: lower-alpha;">
<li><p>'''''Folder''''': a temporary folder for saving User Account data. Create a new, empty one and assign it to the migration tool.</p></li>
<li><p>'''''Connectors''''': select the old Entersoft Facebook Connector to the one – specific to the installation/implementation.</p></li></ol>
</li>
<li><p>'''''Execution'''''</p>
<ol style="list-style-type: lower-alpha;">
<li><p>First, '''''download new app scoped IDs'''''. On Start, you will be asked to login to your Facebook Account. Make sure you use administrative credentials.</p></li>
<li><p>when completed, '''''Update the Database'''''</p></li></ol>
</li></ul>
</li></ul>

Image 98: MigrateSocialMediaAccountTool.exe

[[File:CRMSocial-UserGuideEN-image151.png|233x262px]]

This will result any registered company accounts to be associated the new Connector and any related User Accounts will be correspondingly updated.
