Using capabilities like Social Listening, Analytics and Engagement, honorees sharpened their strategies, scaled their customer care and extended their brand&#8217;s reach.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis year&#8217;s winners show us where social is headed,\u201d said Scott Morris, CMO of Sprout Social. \u201cEach of these teams treated social as a front-line source for understanding and connecting with their customers, not in theory, but in daily practice. They used Sprout&#8217;s platform and social intelligence to change how their entire organization listens, responds and makes decisions. That&#8217;s the real story here: when you give teams the right tools, social has the potential to become one of the clearest windows a business has into the people it serves.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\n        <strong>Best in Social Intelligence Award \u2013 City of Hope<\/strong>\n      <\/p>\n<p>City of Hope, one of the largest and most advanced cancer research and treatment organizations in the country, used social intelligence to build a truly community-driven campaign that resonated deeply with its audience. Their social team used Sprout Social Listening to study what patients, survivors, caregivers and supporters were already saying online. Those findings shaped the City of Hope Line, a campaign that invites the community to record and share their own messages of hope through installations at five physical locations and a phone line. Now in its second year, the campaign has helped City of Hope earn its first-ever social Telly Awards wins and Webby nominations, along with sustained double-digit growth in engagement, reach and video views. That success has carried beyond the social team: departments across philanthropy, thought leadership and internal communications now weave the same social-first insight into their everyday work, making social intelligence a resource the whole organization draws on.<\/p>\n<p>\n        <em>\u201cSocial intelligence gave us a deeper understanding of what mattered most to our community and helped us turn those insights into meaningful experiences that invite people to connect and share hope. The result is a more audience-centered approach that strengthens how we engage the patients and families we are privileged to serve.\u201d <\/em><br \/>\n        <strong><br \/>\n          <em>\u2014 Nisha Morris, Senior Vice President, Chief Marketing and Communications Officer at City of Hope<\/em><br \/>\n        <\/strong>\n      <\/p>\n<p>\n        <strong>Precision Impact Award \u2013 Cornerstone Building Brands<\/strong>\n      <\/p>\n<p>Cornerstone Building Brands runs 35 individual brands, each with its own lean marketing team, and is proving that scale doesn&#8217;t have to mean slower decisions. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.globenewswire.com\/Tracker?data=hPPAkwGpnzGb2FhC_52F6otj2PQWH-zargUl51xe6jI3rrGOX-vZli4znOSpknvgsIYlJYXhKIoONSfkx2869AnzL08Qa2XjqlVR24NBXBtwGal9F3x02ZwezdXNY1V1GLb0rAFFVfpiQ_sQlDFL3mGQtk5T9k1brVX7NbyVzWeZTs58qrTBcrfNj6MP59MWeJ2lPy7B24qybD0hVjcV0A==\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\"><u>Their team centralized reporting across the portfolio<\/u><\/a> using Analytics, Competitor Analysis and Social Listening in Sprout Social, replacing brand-by-brand manual reports with automated, brand-specific insight every team could act on immediately.
