[Plugin: Social Essentials – Social Stats and Sharing Buttons] query_post problem

I am just trying to use the shortcode
” <?php echo do_shortcode(‘[social_essentials]’); ?> “
in my query_post, but I can’t get results, and my query_post prints 3 posts.
Any ideas of what can make the shortcode works in the query_post?
