Share of Voice in Lifecycle Marketing

DIRECT ANSWER

Share of Voice (SOV) is the percentage of total category advertising or content impressions that a brand owns relative to all competitors in the category. It is calculated as a brand's impressions (or spend, or mentions) divided by the total impressions across all category competitors. Higher SOV is consistently associated with sustained or growing market share. In Lifecycle Marketing specifically, this means Maintain a real-time lifecycle stage model (MQL, SQL, trial, active, at-risk, churned) per contact and Trigger stage-appropriate nurture sequences automatically on stage transitions — all of which Hadrian's Lifecycle Marketing Agent executes autonomously on your live data.

Paid SOV is measured by comparing your ad impressions or spend against total category spend — tools like Google Ads' Impression Share report provide this directly for search. Organic SOV tracks the share of non-branded keyword rankings your domain holds versus competitors. Social SOV measures branded mention volume relative to competitor mention volume.
