Content effectiveness is tracked using tools such as:

• Google Analytics and Search Console (traffic and behavior)
• Hootsuite & Buffer Analytics (social reach and engagement)
• Mailchimp Reports (email performance)
• Feedback Collection (comment sentiment, survey responses)

Monthly M&E check-ins allow the team to optimize underperforming content and double down on high-impact formats.

7. Lessons Learned & Adjustments

• Visual-first content (photos, short-form videos) performs better than text-heavy posts.

8. Recommendations

• Expand SayPro’s video production capacity to meet demand for multimedia content.
• Translate content into more regional languages to reach underserved audiences.
• Launch a monthly “Voices of SayPro” podcast or video series featuring alumni, staff, and partners.
