Newcomers make list for first time

•  Morissons overtook Waitrose to make the top 30 for the first time.

•  Tesco, which remains in the headlines for the wrong reasons this month, was still the most talked about supermarket.

•  Rumours that Audi was going to join Formula 1 got people talking about them.

•  And IBM, which has signed an data partnership with Twitter, also made the list for the first time.

All  change  at  Morrisons  •  The  supermarket  has  been  in  the  headlines  (and  in  people’s  

Twi\er  feeds)  for  various  reasons  this  month.  •  October  saw  Morrisons  take  on  rivals  with  the  launch  of  a  

new  loyalty  card  with  plans  to  match  the  prices  at  discount  rivals  Aldi  and  Lidl.  

•  This  sent  Twi\er  into  quite  the  flu\er.  But  perhaps  more  because  of  Lidl’s  perfect  response  to  the  news.

Audi  in  the  fast  lane  

•  No  Audi  are  not  joining  Formula  1  in  2016.  Much  to  the  disappointment  of  their  fans  on  Twi\er.  

But  a  hugely  successful  campaign  tying  TV  adver=sing  to  Snapchat  and  Twi\er  sees  them  firmly  in  the  driver’s  seat  this  month.

IBM  seeks  profits  in  social  data  

The  Supermarket  made  the  headlines  for  all  the  wrong  reasons  in  September.    Shares  have  clumped  45%  this  year  and  recently  became  embroiled  in  a  scandal  and  was  forced  to  admit  it  had  overstated  profits  by  £250m    

Compu=ng  company  IBM  Announced  a  new  data  partnership  with  Twi\er  that  will  see  them    turn  the  500  million-­‐or-­‐so  tweets  sent  every  day  into  business  intelligence.    With  revenues  in  their  more  tradi=onal  consul=ng  stagna=ng,  they’re  hoping  this  rela=vely  untapped  resource  will  change  the  way  companies  use  big  data  in  their  decision-­‐making.

Influen=al  Brands  •  The  UK  Social  Brand  Report  looks  at  brand  men=ons.  But  which  

brand  accounts  are  the  most  influen=al  in  the  UK?  

•  PeerIndex  measures  influence  by  looking  at  who  generates  the  most  conversa=ons.  And  from  the  data  we  collected:  being  talked  about  is  not  the  same  as  being  talked  to.  

•  Tesco  is  seeing  the  most  engagement  (and  therefore  has  the  most  influence)  within  our  UK  audience.  Other  supermarkets  are  also  par=cularly  influen=al.  

•  Adidas,  though  not  being  men=oned  as  oJen  as  rival  Nike,  is  s=ll  making  a  big  impact  on  Twi\er.  

•  There  is  more  than  one  way  to  measure  a  brand’s  success  on  Twi\er.  Which  metric  are  you  aiming  for?
