Abstract: The study substantiates the need for a differentiated approach to evaluating social media marketing effectiveness for IT companies. The research is driven by the lack of methodologies that account for the specific characteristics of this sector, a gap that leads to the use of inappropriate metrics and ineffective management decisions. The article identifies and systematizes seven key industry factors that shape the specifics of evaluating social media marketing performance. A table outlining the application of unit metrics for various types of IT companies has been developed. Requirements for evaluating social media marketing effectiveness in the IT sector are formulated, taking into account factors such as the business model, the sales funnel stage, platform-specific nuances, and the necessity of integrating unit economics.
