If the Super Bowl Were The Social Bowl, Coke Would Win

There’s just one problem with this infographic from Shift which takes a look at social activity for brands as if the Super Bowl were the Social Bowl. The Super Bowl hasn’t happened yet. Conversation on social platforms could be completely different come Sunday as compared to this week’s lead up conversation.

In addition, does killing it in social media really mean you’re crushing it from a revenue perspective? Yes, there are analogies to be made and correlations to be considered. But these sorts of data grabs too often feel like playful ploys at generating awareness and publicity for the infographic creator rather than an offer of information that’s actually valuable.
