    Organizational silos are limiting the business benefits of social media, according to TCS Global Trend Report

    • Since 2010, 64% of enterprises1 have assigned at least one full-time equivalent (FTE) to use public social networks – such as Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn.
    • Despite investment, only about 10% of enterprises have generated significant improvements2 in multiple areas of their business.
    • Marketing most often3 owns social media; but only 42% of enterprises say their organizational structure for social media is effective or highly effective. 
    • Leaders4 in social media invest in producing their own digital content; 81% have corporate blogs, 77% have mobile apps for consumers who use social media, and 61% have online video channels.

    Mumbai, October 1, 2013: Only 10% of the enterprises are realizing significant improvements to their business as a result of social media investments. Despite the hype and increased investments, it seems that enterprises are still struggling to make the most of social media, according to a global trend report published today by Tata Consultancy Services (BSE: 532540, NSE: TCS), a leading IT services, consulting and business solutions organization. 

    Titled Mastering Digital Feedback: How the Best Consumer Companies Use Social Media, the research shows that while social media is being taken seriously by most enterprises – more than two thirds have at least one FTE committed to social media, and the average company will spend $19 million on it and employ 56 people – significant benefits are not being achieved, most commonly with information not reaching the right functions. 

    Satya Ramaswamy, Vice President and Global Head, Digital Enterprise, TCS, comments, “Despite the ready availability of digitized consumer-to-consumer interactions in social media, its use by companies is today largely limited to being a mechanism for B2C marketing. It is time enterprises took a multi-layered approach to social media and learnt to harness its power across the enterprise in critical revenue drivers such as new product design by incorporating feedback from social media in these important business functions. Breaking down the organizational silos is key to realizing the full power of social media. In other words, organizations need to be social and share internally to really use the power of social media externally.

    Other significant findings from the research include the following:

    • Only 27% of R&D/product development and 37% of product management departments regularly view social media comments from consumers. This is partly because the social media activity is most commonly owned by marketing, customer services and sales. The result of siloed ownership is that only 42% of the enterprises view their organizational structure for social media activities as effective or highly effective.
    • Leaders spend an average of $28 million on social media activity; twice as much as followers5. Leaders also go beyond just having company pages on social networks; 81% have corporate blogs, 77% have mobile apps for consumers who use social media, and 61% have online video channels.
    • Despite only a small percentage of the enterprises seeing significant business benefits, businesses are often getting a positive ROI for social media activity, 38%; that is more than double the number of companies with a negative ROI. However, 44% of enterprises have not measured ROI at all.
    • The media and entertainment industry has the highest percentage of companies that have been using social media the longest to engage with consumers; most insurance companies are relatively new to social media.
    • Maturity correlates with how effective enterprises are at breaking down silos, a key factor in successful social media activity. Media and entertainment enterprises are least likely to centralize activity; whereas new comers to social media like travel, high-tech and telecoms enterprises are most likely to decentralize their social media activity.

    The TCS Global Trend Report on social media surveyed 655 enterprises globally with average revenues of $15.6 billion and is the fourth TCS global trend report in the series. 

    Notes:

    Average revenue of $15.6 billion; a median of $4.9 billion.

    The way they market, sell, provide customer service after the sale, develop new products and services, and identify and make corrections to their current offerings, to name a few.

     In about one-third of companies, marketing controls social media activities – a much higher percentage than any other function.

    Respondents whose answers to a question asking them to evaluate the benefits they’ve achieved in 16 domains (marketing, sales, service, product innovation and others) put them in the top third in terms of total benefits.

     Respondents whose total benefits in the 16 areas landed them in the bottom third of benefits achieved.
