At 2TON, we don’t just post for likes. We post with purpose. Whether we’re boosting visibility, driving engagement, or generating sales, one truth drives everything we do: if you can’t measure it, you can’t master it.
In today’s digital world, social media isn’t just an add-on. It’s a vital component of your business strategy. From connecting with customers to building brand authority, having a solid social presence is essential. It’s your platform to engage directly with your audience, and skipping it is no longer an option.
Let’s move past vanity metrics and focus on the numbers that truly matter.
The Metrics That Matter
1. Engagement Rate
This goes beyond likes and comments. Engagement includes shares, saves, clicks, direct messages, and mentions. It shows who is actively interacting with your content.
Pro Tip: An engaged audience is a converting audience. We tailor engagement strategies to your industry—whether you’re in healthcare, law, or retail, we know how to spark the right conversations that resonate with your target market. Engagement is the first step in building long-lasting relationships.
For example, our client, Turf Girl, our multi-platform content approach drove a 4% average engagement rate across all channels, including a standout 7.9% engagement rate on LinkedIn
2. Reach vs. Impressions
- Reach shows how many unique users saw your content
- Impressions show the total number of times your content was displayed
Understanding these numbers helps you recognize whether your content is gaining new visibility or being served to the same people repeatedly.
Pro Tip: Whether your goal is to increase awareness or drive more foot traffic to your store, we tailor strategies that maximize reach and ensure your content gets in front of the right eyes.
Real-World Win: Our client Doris Italian Market’s organic Facebook content delivered over 8 million impressions in one year, contributing to a significant increase in store visits and a 125% spike in Instagram follower growth. That’s what happens when content is backed by strategy.
3. Click-Through Rate (CTR)
CTR tells you how many people are compelled to take action, whether it's clicking on a link to your site or viewing a product.
Pro Tip: A higher CTR means your content is prompting the right action. We refine your CTAs to fit your audience’s needs. For medical businesses, we focus on clear, informative content that encourages people to book appointments or schedule consultations. For retail, we craft time-sensitive promotions that encourage immediate action.
4. Video Completion Rate
If you’re investing in video, you need to know whether people are watching until the end. Video completion rates reveal how compelling and engaging your content truly is.
Pro Tip: High completion rates indicate that your content is holding attention. Whether you’re offering product demos, educational content, or event highlights, we design video strategies that keep your audience hooked from start to finish.
Our Philosophy: Strategy Over Flash
We focus on making sure your content has a purpose and that it’s positioned to deliver meaningful results.
Social media success isn’t one-size-fits-all. That’s why we take the time to understand your unique business needs, goals, and audience. Whether you're in healthcare, legal services, retail, or any other industry, we tailor social strategies to resonate with your target demographic and ensure the metrics we track align with your objectives.
For example, our client CYZL’s strongest-performing posts were built around educational content, which made up 42% of their total output and consistently ranked among their most engaging. Our strategy didn’t rely on trend-chasing—it relied on knowing what works for their audience.
Effective social media is more than just posting regularly. It’s about being consistent, measuring what works, and adjusting as needed to achieve long-term growth.
