I encourage everyone who works in or around the field of "Social Media" to take this survey created by the agency I work for, Undercurrent. If you handle social media strategy, manage a social media team (internal or external), or conduct social media outreach on behalf of or within a brand, please take 10 minutes to complete the survey.
The objective is to gain a greater understanding of how social media is put in practice by agencies and clients, including: how objectives are defined, how results are measured, who is doing the work, the level of compensation, and what resources are most popular among practitioners.
It's important to get a wide variety of data, so please share and spread this survey. We'll keep the survey open during the month of August. We will be releasing a free report (probably Slideshare) on our findings, along with a free download of the full dataset. We're hoping that what we collect will be beneficial for the entire industry.
Please help us spread the survey by posting the bit.ly link (http://bit.ly/socialmediasurvey) across your social profiles and use the hashtag #smsurvey when tweeting.
