THE $2.4B MISTAKE: WHY LOCAL ENGAGEMENT SHOULD BE YOUR TOP PRIORITY

Are you ghosting your customers? New research from SOCi reveals that many brands are missing out on opportunities to engage with local audiences. For instance, did you know that:

The typical U.S. brand is invisible in two out of three local searches, despite the fact that 9 out of 10 consumers rely on search to fulfill their needs?

92% of customer questions posted on Google profiles go unanswered, including simple inquiries like "Are you open late on Christmas Eve?" or "Do you sell golf equipment?"

Brands generate only three engagements (reactions, comments, shares) per post on social media platforms like Facebook.

A whopping 54% of reviews received on Google remain unanswered, which can harm a brand's reputation and sales.

These missed opportunities add up. According to our calculations, the average U.S. retail brand loses about $30 million in revenue each year by failing to engage with local audiences. Across the entire retail sector, this equates to a staggering $2.4 billion in potential revenue left on the table.

But there's good news too. Brands that excel at localized marketing grow their revenue by twice the rate of the average business.

That's where SOCi's Local Visibility Index (LVI) comes in. Our LVI report is a comprehensive resource that provides performance benchmarks for multi-location brands in 39 industries across search, reputation, and social media. You can download our whitepaper, explore the LVI data using our new Local Visibility Dashboard, and even request a personalized audit to see how your brand stacks up against the competition.
