Listening for Orange -- identifying insights, super contributors, and sentiment

By Synthesio

Entry information on the Web new page

Orange is a leading telecommunications company in Europe that has partnered with Synthesio, an international web monitoring and research company, to actively listen to and engage consumers online. Synthesio uses its automated tool to identify top influential forums for Orange conversations and eliminate a large part of the noise that comes from monitoring a company with the name of a fruit. They then analyze forum comments for sentiment and topics and pass this information to Orange's team of specially trained "web consultants".

These consultants are customer service specialists that have been specially trained for social media participation. They identify "super contributors" for each forum and encourage their participation and help by only intervening when necessary.

Orange's official forum, alone, saw 100,000 site visitors in the past year. That's 100,000 fewer Hotline calls. Combined with the third-party forums monitored by Synthesio, Orange has estimated "a few million euros" in savings, according to Project Manager Thomas Le Gac. Le Gac says the ROI they have seen has been "extremely quick" and they are expecting several more millions in ROI.

They have also been able to listen in on competitors' mistakes and avoid them, and integrate competitive offers. Family calling, for example, was part of a competitor's offer that customers talked about in forums. It is now part of the Orange Open calling plan and gives customers unlimited calling capability for a certain number of contacts.
