What is a social media report?

A social media report is a document that consolidates data from multiple sources (e.g., Instagram, Twitter, Facebook) to track and display key performance indicators (KPIs) (e.g., engagement rate, follower growth, reach), enabling teams and agencies to monitor social media performance and create presentations for clients and executives. 

Social media reports are typically created using flexible tools like Google Looker Studio, Power BI, Google Sheets, or platform-specific solutions to enable high customization and integration of multiple data sources.

What to include in a social media report?

An actionable social media report balances context and specificity based on the audience (executives, managers, and analysts) and their use cases.

Executive social media reports

Executive reports for CMOs, CEOs, and clients show social media's bottom-line impact. Reviewed weekly, monthly, or quarterly, they include:

  • Social media ROI analysis: by platform, using engagement metrics and follower growth.
  • Audience analysis: demographics, interests, and behavior insights.
  • Content performance analysis: top-performing posts, engagement by content type.
  • Add text for additional context to translate metrics for non-technical audiences. Present in slide decks and simplified Looker Studio reports.

Social media manager reports

Manager reports have cross-platform views with drill-downs to see performance by client, brand, region, team member, and campaign. They help align teams, define tactics, and include:

  • Cross-platform reporting: overall performance, audience insights, and content effectiveness across platforms.
  • Goal tracking: compare current performance vs objectives.
  • Audits for prioritization and spotting issues 
  • Competitive analysis for platform and content strategy mapping.
  • Topic, keyword, content, audience research

Operational Social Media Reports

Operational reports for analysts and social media managers have granular, customizable KPIs to solve technical issues. Monitored hourly, daily, or weekly, they cover:

  • Engagement: likes, comments, shares, engagement rate.
  • Growth: follower growth, reach, impressions.
  • Content: post performance, optimal posting times, trending topics/hashtags.

Operational social media reports are highly customized, built in flexible tools like Google Sheets or Looker Studio to enable data cleaning, blending, annotations, and integrating multiple sources.
