Sprout has helped us better understand who our audience is, how we can be most relevant and effective and really take a customer-first approach. That was difficult for us to do before without having all the dots connected.”

Kara Wenman

It’s really nice to be able to use Sprout to see the general health and growth of our different social channels. We use Sprout to mine the insights of what’s resonating with our audiences in the US, and then provide that to the brand managers in Europe to see if that content resonates with their audiences. We can test different types of content and quickly analyze the metrics to see what’s working.”
