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.

The loneliest version of retirement isn’t having no one to call it’s having a phone full of contacts and knowing that every single one of them will ask “how are you” without actually wanting the answer and you’ve gotten too tired to keep pretending that’s enough
