The power of social data is now recognized beyond sales and marketing, and it has become a go-to resource for human resources, product development and customer support teams – making its value in the enterprise more relevant than ever before. Crimson Hexagon customers apply insights derived from social data to build long-term strategies and analyze the sentiments driving user decisions. As a result, enterprises can better connect with their audiences, predict industry trends and make smarter business decisions.

To mark the milestone, Crimson Hexagon has mined its data repository of insights to showcase key cultural and business trends as they have evolved over the past six years.

“It’s amazing and incredibly valuable to be able to analyze all those conversations over time, notes Ali Tercek, senior marketing advertising researcher at Twitter. “Everyone from our research to our sales teams can understand what the opportunities are for brands before they even know them.”

Crimson Hexagon’s vast data library of social insights effectively unlocks for users instant access to the world’s largest focus group. With data derived from diverse social media sources, Crimson Hexagon manages the technological feat of gathering, housing, cleansing, tagging and analyzing these 1 trillion pieces of data and can transform the raw data into business value. Crimson Hexagon’s offering also allows the unique ability to analyze audience demographics, images, text and additional context associated with social media posts.

“At Hallmark Cards, through Crimson Hexagon’s offering, we are able to inform strategic decisions by leveraging infinite amounts of current and historical social data to gain insight on any given topic, at any given time. It’s allowed us to better understand perceptions of our brands and competitors, our products, and most importantly people’s lives and relationships and what’s important to them,” notes Christine Thurm of the Insights and Analytics team at Hallmark Cards.

Brands such as Adidas, Amazon Instant Video, and Virgin Holidays, global agencies like Edelman, BBDO, and VML, and non-profits including the UN Global Pulse, Harvard University, and Greenpeace USA use Crimson Hexagon to discover trends and understand brand, product, and public perceptions.
