Our insights indicate that only seven out of every 100 viewers is an active commenter — which is why we believe social listening solutions alone are not a complete method for brands to truly understand their target audiences. 

You need behavioral insights and an understanding of the growing video content landscape to drive sales, nurture loyalty, and to show you are in-touch with consumers. 

Check out Tubular’s three-pronged approach to leveraging behavioral insights in your content strategy:

  • Monitor: Set up key trackers for your brand to get tabs on your audience’s interests
  • Validate: Learn about the majority of your audience who isn’t active in the comments section
  • Apply: Stay ahead of social trends and develop a repeatable recipe for social media success 

Learn the best practices and strategies for tapping into the silent majority of your target audiences.

“Social Listening” is the buzzword of the season… but is it really an effective source of information for leading companies to build their social strategies?

Consider this: The #3 most viewed TikTok creator gets below average comments on their videos. If you’re measuring success off surface-level metrics, your assessment is going to be inaccurate. 

Leaders like Mattel, Amazon.com and BuzzFeed have built strong brand preference and customer loyalty by basing decisions on audience behaviors, not likes and comments. This report shows you how to: 

  • Align content & influencer partnerships with consumer behavior
  • Draw inspiration from top creators and foster loyal communities
  • Gain deeper audience insights based on what they watch and what they purchase
