Social Listening for Marketers

with Martin Waxman

Marketing and Communications Plan Template

Overview
• Sets the stage by describing what you want to achieve and any immediate barriers

• For example, if you were launching a blog, this would be a one-paragraph description of what type
of blog you want to create, who the audience is, and what type of posts you’d do and how often

Goal(s)
• What you are trying to achieve

Strategic Considerations
• Research (including monitoring, social listening, reports, CRM, and other data) that identifies
challenges, issues, and opportunities that affect your strategic approach

• Often includes a summary of the competitive landscape

• Or can be presented as a SWOT (strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, threats) analysis – see


chart below

Strengths Weaknesses

1 of 2
Objectives
• What you are specifically trying to achieve

• Should be quantifiable and tied into evaluation – use SMART (strategic, measurable, achievable,
realistic, time-based) objectives

• For example, increase sales 20 percent by December 31

Tactics
• All the things you do to bring your project to life

• Include marketing, digital, sponsorships, events, PR, newsletters, blog posts, social media updates,
Facebook contests, YouTube videos, promoted posts and ads, website and other digital elements,
tweet chats, podcasts, blogger and influencer relations, and hashtag campaigns

Budget
• Most real-life projects include a budget.

• This should include out of pocket expenses (design, web/blog design, original photography, video
production, promoted posts/ads, etc.) as well as agency or freelancer costs and staff time.

Timeline/Responsibilites
• Timeline should show how the various elements work together to achieve your objectives.

• It should also include a column for who is responsible for completing each task.

• It should clearly state timing and duration of all critical decision points that could prevent the
project from moving forward

Results (evaluated once the program is complete)


• Based on your measurable objectives

• Summarize where you are, what you’ve achieved, and where you fell short

• Include relevant charts and graphs, but only if they are essential

Learning/Recommendations (evaluate once the program is complete)


• Based on your results

• Note whether or not you achieved your objectives and goal, which parts of your strategy and tactics
worked, which areas need improvement, and what you would change and why

• What actionable recommendations would you have for the future
