How Can Sentiment Analysis Benefit Your Business?



As business enterprises increase their social media footprint, their organizational success is fast being decided by the effectiveness of their social engagement strategies. You have to be spot-on in knowing what your customers’ likes, dislikes, wants and needs are. Their intents and sentiments that they so candidly express on the social media channels through chats, reviews, forum discussions, tweets, likes and shares on Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, YouTube etc are the bedrock of your social media strategy.

So, how do you know your customers’ sentiments? I believe that the answer lies in Sentiment Analysis.

Some of the modern social media analytics products use advanced Natural Language Processing (NLP) techniques to conduct detailed, exhaustive investigations of social media users’ sentiments. Using Sentiment Analysis, organizations can assess the tone of voice and the nature of feelings expressed behind every word that their social audience post online on the social media channels and then classify them as positive, negative or neutral sentiments. 

 
Business Benefits of Sentiment Analysis

As I already mentioned earlier, Sentiment Analysis gives useful insights about your current and future customers’ purchase preferences, brand affiliations, topics of interests, opinions, point of views on discussions, likes and dislikes in products/ services and much more. This useful information lets organizations to drastically improve their customer service and engagement strategies by building on the positive sentiments and formulating methods to combat negative sentiments.



2) Revive Brand 

One of the best uses of Sentiment Analysis is that it allows organizations to quantify perceptions – about your brand, products and services, marketing campaigns, social engagement initiatives, online content etc. Organizations can use this information for devising better and more effective branding and marketing strategies and thus improve your brand reputation.
