Abstract: Social media data is increasingly becoming a valuable asset for marketing teams, and businesses are regularly coming up with new and innovative ways to make use of this data. A social media network (SMN) is able to connect enterprises with their customers, partners and even competitors. Public trading and relations-oriented structures of social media networks (SMN) have encouraged organizations to engage more actively with other transactional partners. Organizations are seeking to tap into the relationship development potential these websites offer, especially the network effect of each individuals or organisations social graph. It is recognized that these relationships (when utilised) are able to create value for network participants. This paper discusses SMN tools and outlines a methodology and procedure that supports the identification of domain specific networks within a global business-to-business environment. Research is carried out using SMN data about firms in the pharmaceuti cal industry. We use our own methodology to uncover market participants, linkages and prominent issues that may help new firms to position themselves effectively in a new marketplace. SMNs provide a considerable source of information and new methods are required to fully leverage their potential value. This paper explores how SMNs can be used as an effective source of business intelligence by analysing a popular SMN platform. (More)
