Social media marketing is about ROC: Return on Conversation as Liana Evans indicated in her book. While cost is considered in any marketing campaign, ROI calculations are used for direct marketing and general advertising activities.
Social media engagement activities via Facebook, LinkedIn, forums, Twitter, or YouTube, etc are measured by return on conversation (post, retweet, like, comment, share, reply, etc).

1. Analyze website visitors; where they came from, how they are browsing your pages, new visitors, etc. If you’re investing in social media engagement, you would track how this reflects in more website visits from those social media accounts. Google Analytics is a great tool to perform such analysis including In-Page Analytics.
2. Assign dedicated email and/or phone number for your online advertising campaigns and social media accounts. This will help decision makers to track sales leads that were initiated via Twitter engagement for example while others were initiated via website contact form. This blog article here highlights 5 website success measures.
3. Track online leads (i.e. website contact form tickets). This helps your company to realize the effect of advertising campaigns in terms of number of tickets, number of new followers, number of Facebook page likes, etc.
4. Adjust call-to-action and advertising settings: CTR (Click-Through-Rate) is one of indicators used to evaluate online ads performance.
