# analytics-and-reporting
The **measurement keystone** — read native platform data, turn it into goal-mapped insight, and close
the loop. Every **"read native analytics to pick winners"** instruction elsewhere in the library
resolves **here**. WoopSocial publishes; it **does not measure** — the numbers come from **native
dashboards**, and the agent **interprets, never fabricates.**
## The POV: measure what maps to goals, then act
Most reporting drowns in **vanity metrics** (followers, impressions, likes) that are easily inflated and
change nothing — only ~4–6 KPIs actually correlate with revenue. Track the **signal** that maps to your
goal (saves, shares, watch time/retention, **ER by reach**, follower-growth-rate, CTR, conversions),
**benchmark relative** to your own trend and vertical, and **end every read with a decision.** A metric
that won't change next week's action is a diagnostic, not a KPI.
## Read these first
1. **brand-profile** — positioning/audience (context for the numbers).
2. **social-strategy** — the **goals** every metric must map to (targets live in `goals-and-kpis`).
## The framework: METER
(Depth: `references/the-meter-framework.md`.)
- **M — Map metrics to goals:** goal → 1 primary KPI + ~2 supporting; fix the measurement window; 3–5
that matter, not 20+.
- **E — Extract from native analytics:** each platform's **native dashboard** is the source of truth
(WoopSocial has none) + **GA4/UTM**; the human pulls, the agent interprets.
- **T — Trim to t
