Understanding what people are talking about in your town or city helps ensure that the content you’re posting and sharing hits the mark every time.
By taking a deeper look into conversation topics, as a business, you’re able to incorporate subjects that your audience care about into your own social media messaging.
If we take a look at the ‘What’s being said about #Gloucester’ dashboard within Maybe*, the most popular conversation this last week has been the ‘Residents Weekend’ event’. This was highlighted by the local press, citing that it was Gloucestershire’s second busiest weekend for visitors in 2019. In addition, there are positive conversations around the ‘Tall Ships’ festival (planned for summer 2019) and Coffee – reflecting the vibrant independent cafe scene in the city.
