Understanding your customers means listening to what they say when they do not know you are listening. Social platforms are where people share honest opinions, describe their workflows, and reveal the real reasons they choose or abandon products. For startups, this is a high-leverage strategy because startups need to find product-market fit fast, and social listening is the fastest way to understand what your market actually wants.
