Dachis Group Launches Employee Insight
As Part of Dachis Group's Suite of Social Analytics Applications, Employee Insight Empowers Brand Marketers to Identify and Activate Employee Advocates to Drive Engagement at Scale

(firmenpresse) - AUSTIN, TX -- (Marketwire) -- 05/22/12 -- Dachis Group, the world's leading social software and solutions firm, today announced the launch of , a software-as-a-service (SaaS) application that measures the impact of employees' social activities on a brand and allows for the management of employee advocacy programs. With this launch, Dachis Group will be offering a free webinar series and 1-on-1 tours of its product suite.
CMOs, brand managers, and social community managers have long sensed the opportunity presented by engaging with millions of fans and followers on a global basis. Unfortunately, marketers are vastly outnumbered by their community members and have lacked the tools to engage with these massive groups of customers and prospects at scale. Particularly in retail, B2B companies, and high consideration/high complexity product categories like high tech and consumer electronics, the demand for brand and product experts far outstrips supply. However, in each of these companies, there exists a plentiful pool of passionate experts who love evangelizing the brand: employees.
"Engagement at scale requires the identification and activation of all of a brand's most passionate advocates. For many brands, especially in service oriented businesses, their employees are the front line, first point of contact, and the absolute most important interaction with customers," said Jeffrey Dachis, Founder, President, and Chief Executive Officer, Dachis Group. "With the launch of Employee Insight, brand marketers can finally tap into and measure the effects of one of the most powerful tools in their social marketing arsenal; employee advocates."
Employees are a critical missing element for successful engagement at scale for large brands. Employees are unique for their dual role as verifiable experts on an industry or product as well as the authentic voice they contribute to online and offline discussion. An enthusiastic, engaged workforce authentically sharing a brand message provides a previously unattainable level of brand impact. The key is coordinated and measurable activation of employees by the brand. Achieving this kind of activation is not a trivial problem.
Finding, recruiting, and mobilizing employees is a significant challenge for marketers at most brands. They know employee advocates are out there, but how do you focus their potential and measure their impact? The best way to answer these questions is with Employee Insight, Dachis Group's big data social analytics application for employee advocacy. Employee Insight monitors and measures the daily interactions between 30,000 brands and 100 million social accounts to identify brands' most passionate and engaged employees and then provide the management tools necessary to mobilize them.
Features include:
Showcases the employee's brand-related social activity, including posts, followers, sentiment, and echoed signals so others can learn by example.
Helps you mobilize your team by showcasing news, sharing best practices, and sending invites.
Identifies and ranks your top employee accounts, tracking signals, audience, conversation, and strength.
Mobilizes your employee social effort with best practices, social policies, program updates, invitations, and leaderboards to accelerate participation.
"Successful employee advocacy programs have thousands to tens of thousands of participants," said Erik Huddleston, EVP Product and CTO at Dachis Group. "Employee Insight provides the analytic and management tools to scale authentic engagement."
