My guest today is Liz Gross, founder and CEO of Campus Sonar. In this episode we discuss using social listening to inform higher ed storytelling and strategy.

Key takeaways:
  • The importance of listening to your audience's narratives and addressing misperceptions through strategic storytelling.
  • Using social listening to identify insights for strategic initiatives like enrollment, program development, reputation management, and more.
  • Leveraging niche online communities like Reddit and YouTube to get an authentic pulse on brand perception.
  • Conducting an internal social listening audit to align decentralized campus storytellers.
  • Thinking beyond vanity metrics by using qualitative and quantitative listening data.
