Study: Dastgyr ranks #1 in share of voice among B2B e-commerce marketplaces

Covering 50 earned media impressions for the fiscal year 2022 across podcasts and dot com interviews & features, a new study by Founder Pakistan sought to understand which B2B-eCommerce marketplace has the top share of voice (SOV) in the Pakistani market.

The study concluded that Dastgyr had the highest SOV for the fiscal year 2022, indicating that the business has visionary storytelling and a strong grasp of the science of public relations.

A measure of the market your brand owns compared to your competitors, SOV acts as a gauge for your brand visibility and how much you dominate the conversation in your industry.

Per the T-Algorithm – the eight variables commonly found in companies worth a trillion dollars – SOV directly comes from visionary storytelling, which depends on an earned media-focused marketing strategy.

This focused on dot com, and podcast-based earned media.

And the preferred choice of media goes to the Dawn, PYMNTS, Deal Street Asia, Tech In Asia, Bloomberg, and ProPakistani. This data excludes social media, events, podcasts, and sentiment.

This illustrates the importance of visual and written media, covering employer branding and investment sentiment goals. The most popular podcast is Thought Behind Things, while the most popular publication was ProPakistani for the press release and earned features on RotW.

A breakdown of SOV research is below.
