A New Media Era Requires New Tools
Today’s world of integrated marketing makes it next to impossible to guess the success
of your communications strategy.
Effectiveness has to be judged objectively, not subjectively; empirically, not speculatively.
Companies need to know what they are getting for their effort and investment. In
other words, more Precise decisions.
No accurate PR measurement
As you know, PR’s effectiveness has traditionally been gauged largely on gut feel
and guesswork.
The ‘thud factor’, ‘column inches’ and ‘ad value’ were attempts at a more scientific
approach, but even the most intuitive, seasoned practitioner would struggle to apply
them in today’s world of media fragmentation.
PR Undervalued
The main casualty is PR itself.
Without proper measurement, PR has never been able to accurately answer the fundamental
question ‘What is the Return on Investment?’ So the contribution of PR has been
undervalued, along with that of its practitioners.
PRECISE PR Analysis changes PR’s status
PrecisePR fundamentally changes the way PR is regarded, because it can prove empirically
the contribution that PR makes. The ultimate decision on budgets is always made
by ‘numbers’ people. We talk their language.
- No longer is PR the poor relation of advertising;
- No longer is it the automatic casualty when budgets are under review;
- The whole status of PR is transformed. And yours with it.
