Hugh Anderson presented on PR measurement and the need to move beyond traditional metrics like AVEs. He outlined a new framework using a three-tiered approach measuring program outputs, outcomes, and business outcomes. New metrics could include social media engagement, website traffic and conversions. Tools like Google Analytics, Inkybee and research from organizations like the Coalition for PR Research Standards were highlighted to help practitioners more effectively measure PR impact.

Research is essential element in public relation. Public relations are the act of
communicating to the public in order to create an acceptable image of the company
in which we are working for. This means a public relations professional need to
understand what the public considers an acceptable image, which is often done
through research. It provides the initial information necessary to plan public
relation action and to evaluate its effectiveness. Without research, public relations
would not be a true management function.

Digital influence 501: What are the next trends and hot cases in social mediaMarkus von der Luehe
Author: Brian Giesen, Strategy Director at Ogilvy
Brian discusses why social media and word of mouth marketing are important to business, what the ingredients of digital influence and the measurement options are.
This speech was given at the Adknowledge social media conference in Sydney.
Chris McLaren, Director, Strategy | Wunderman Minneapolis, February 2014.
McLaren presented insights into best practices in ROI tracking. To ascertain the relative effectiveness of social media versus other marketing channels, he advised mapping social metrics to marketing KPIs and assigning comparative values using “known” media costs specific to clients.
This session will focus on defining and measuring success for social media campaigns. Join us for an exploration of the various common Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) and the best practice methods for measuring them. Make sure to bring your campaign ideas and challenges as we'll be analyzing some of your examples!
Takeaways:
- Real metrics for success (hint: it's not about the followers!)
- Practical and cost effective ways to measure them
- A good understanding of how to use the data to improve
Cutting through the Noise- Simplifying & Socializing Alison Engelsman
Cutting through the Noise- Simplifying & Socializing is about taking a step back and revealing that underneath all the “noise” of social media there is a solid communication tool that, if used correctly, can have a positive impact on an organization's recruiting efforts. Presented at the HR Tampa Expo, September 2009.
View-Through Technology: Gaining Insight into DataBusinessOnline
View-through data enhancement enables you to answer these questions. Measuring the impact of content hosted on other sites is no longer a matter of impressions or Sphinns. We can directly measure the impact in terms of traffic, online sales, and conversions — and all of this can happen without a direct link. Join us and see how you can accurately attribute your online PR, social media, and off-site marketing efforts to ROI. And, gain insight into bookmarks and traffic generated through branded searches.
In the current economy where every dollar counts, the ability to demonstrate the value of your programs is a business imperative. You don’t need to have an army of people to measure properly (and no Ad Value Equivalents!) – you just need to be armed with a measurement process that works. Award-winning pro Kami Huyse will show us how to design PR and marketing programs from the beginning so they can be accurately measured, and step us through what to track using tools accessible to solos (without the hefty price tags).
Enterprise Excellence is Inclusive Excellence.pdfKaiNexus
Enterprise excellence and inclusive excellence are closely linked, and real-world challenges have shown that both are essential to the success of any organization. To achieve enterprise excellence, organizations must focus on improving their operations and processes while creating an inclusive environment that engages everyone. In this interactive session, the facilitator will highlight commonly established business practices and how they limit our ability to engage everyone every day. More importantly, though, participants will likely gain increased awareness of what we can do differently to maximize enterprise excellence through deliberate inclusion.
What is Enterprise Excellence?
Enterprise Excellence is a holistic approach that's aimed at achieving world-class performance across all aspects of the organization.
What might I learn?
A way to engage all in creating Inclusive Excellence. Lessons from the US military and their parallels to the story of Harry Potter. How belt systems and CI teams can destroy inclusive practices. How leadership language invites people to the party. There are three things leaders can do to engage everyone every day: maximizing psychological safety to create environments where folks learn, contribute, and challenge the status quo.
Who might benefit? Anyone and everyone leading folks from the shop floor to top floor.

Unveiling the Secrets How Does Generative AI Work.pdfSam H
At its core, generative artificial intelligence relies on the concept of generative models, which serve as engines that churn out entirely new data resembling their training data. It is like a sculptor who has studied so many forms found in nature and then uses this knowledge to create sculptures from his imagination that have never been seen before anywhere else. If taken to cyberspace, gans work almost the same way.

Implicitly or explicitly all competing businesses employ a strategy to select a mix
of marketing resources. Formulating such competitive strategies fundamentally
involves recognizing relationships between elements of the marketing mix (e.g.,
price and product quality), as well as assessing competitive and market conditions
(i.e., industry structure in the language of economics).
Memorandum Of Association Constitution of Company.pptseri bangash
www.seribangash.com
A Memorandum of Association (MOA) is a legal document that outlines the fundamental principles and objectives upon which a company operates. It serves as the company's charter or constitution and defines the scope of its activities. Here's a detailed note on the MOA:
Contents of Memorandum of Association:
Name Clause: This clause states the name of the company, which should end with words like "Limited" or "Ltd." for a public limited company and "Private Limited" or "Pvt. Ltd." for a private limited company.
https://seribangash.com/article-of-association-is-legal-doc-of-company/
Registered Office Clause: It specifies the location where the company's registered office is situated. This office is where all official communications and notices are sent.
Objective Clause: This clause delineates the main objectives for which the company is formed. It's important to define these objectives clearly, as the company cannot undertake activities beyond those mentioned in this clause.
www.seribangash.com
Liability Clause: It outlines the extent of liability of the company's members. In the case of companies limited by shares, the liability of members is limited to the amount unpaid on their shares. For companies limited by guarantee, members' liability is limited to the amount they undertake to contribute if the company is wound up.
https://seribangash.com/promotors-is-person-conceived-formation-company/
Capital Clause: This clause specifies the authorized capital of the company, i.e., the maximum amount of share capital the company is authorized to issue. It also mentions the division of this capital into shares and their respective nominal value.
Association Clause: It simply states that the subscribers wish to form a company and agree to become members of it, in accordance with the terms of the MOA.
Importance of Memorandum of Association:
Legal Requirement: The MOA is a legal requirement for the formation of a company. It must be filed with the Registrar of Companies during the incorporation process.
Constitutional Document: It serves as the company's constitutional document, defining its scope, powers, and limitations.
Protection of Members: It protects the interests of the company's members by clearly defining the objectives and limiting their liability.
External Communication: It provides clarity to external parties, such as investors, creditors, and regulatory authorities, regarding the company's objectives and powers.
https://seribangash.com/difference-public-and-private-company-law/
Binding Authority: The company and its members are bound by the provisions of the MOA. Any action taken beyond its scope may be considered ultra vires (beyond the powers) of the company and therefore void.
Amendment of MOA:
While the MOA lays down the company's fundamental principles, it is not entirely immutable. It can be amended, but only under specific circumstances and in compliance with legal procedures. Amendments typically require shareholder

Putting the SPARK into Virtual Training.pptxCynthia Clay
This 60-minute webinar, sponsored by Adobe, was delivered for the Training Mag Network. It explored the five elements of SPARK: Storytelling, Purpose, Action, Relationships, and Kudos. Knowing how to tell a well-structured story is key to building long-term memory. Stating a clear purpose that doesn't take away from the discovery learning process is critical. Ensuring that people move from theory to practical application is imperative. Creating strong social learning is the key to commitment and engagement. Validating and affirming participants' comments is the way to create a positive learning environment.
1. CIPR Social in the City #sitc, 25 October 2012
PR Measurement
Hugh Anderson
Forth Metrics
2. Agenda
• Why measure?
• Our changing world
• Old-school metrics
• What’s wrong with AVE’s?
• New metrics & framework
• Tools & resources
• Conclusion
3. Why Measure?
• Institute for Public Relations (IPR) paper,
1999 (Katie Payne, James Grunig et al)
Measurable objectives in public relations do two things:
1. They facilitate and support business objectives, thus
demonstrating that PR activities support the business or
performance goals and are thereby “strategic”.
2. They enable PR practitioners to show they have
achieved what they set out to achieve, and thereby
demonstrate accountability.
4. Why Measure?
• Public Relations Society of America (PRSA)
Without appropriate measurement, you can’t
truly gauge success, focus resources on what
works, adjust plans if they don’t work, get
more budget or engage executives.
It will be difficult for PR to get a larger share
of the total communications expenditure
without quantitative means that go well
beyond measurement of media outputs.
5. Why Measure?
• CIPR, PR2020 report : “The Future of
Public Relations”, key recommendation #4
There is a need for clearer thinking
and guidance on measurement and
evaluation.
6. Why Measure?
• to your Client
• To Prove VALUE • to your Manager
• to your Board
• Share of Budget (own & client)
• Delivery against objectives
• To learn and improve
7. And yet ...
• It doesn’t come naturally
IPRA South

Evaluation recognised as
necessary
89 76 90 89

• IPRA (International PR Association) study, 1994
8. Why? (the myths)
• Too expensive
• Too labour intensive
• Lack of knowledge
• Lack of standards/methodology
• Lack of demand
• Simply not a core skill
9. The changing world:
from this ...
• Traditional “paid” media
• Media relations
• Journalists
• Press clippings
• Control of the message and who
distributes it
10. The changing world:
to this ...
• Digital media
• Social media
• Mobile
• Bloggers, influencers
• NO control of the message and who
distributes it
13. Old-school metrics
• There are lots ... potential viewership
opportunities to see (OTS)
# of cuttings/clips
article count
single column centimeters (scc)
gross rating points (GRP’s) column inches
# of impressions broadcast run-time
• And, of course : AVE’s
14. Old-school metrics
• The consequences :
• No comparability
• No consistency
• Confusion
• Lack of tangible value
15. AVE’s : definition
• Advertising Value Equivalency (AVE) is
what your editorial coverage would cost
if it were advertising space (or time).
• To calculate the AVE for one month,
measure the space (column inches)
occupied by a clip (for radio and
television coverage, you measure time).
Then multiply the column inches (time)
by the ad rate for that page (time slot).
16. What’s wrong with AVE’s
• Not real value (cost)
• PR is not Advertising
• Not applicable in new world media
• Encourage wrong behaviours
• Can be manipulated
• Inconsistent
• Industry denounced
17. But in the real world ...
• Clients still want AVE’s
• There’s nothing better out there
= old world mentality that is limiting progress
• There is no silver bullet
• Real, tangible ROI is challenging, BUT
• There are new frameworks and metrics
18. New principles 1
• A Three Tiered Approach
From To To
Programme Programme Business
Outputs Outcomes Outcomes
20. New framework
• The Barcelona Principles:
• 1. Importance of goal setting and measurement
• 2. Measuring the effect on outcomes is preferred to measuring
outputs
• 3. The effect on business results can and should be measured
where possible
• 4. Media measurement requires quantity and quality
• 5. AVEs are not the value of public relations
• 6. Social media can and should be measured
• 7. Transparency and replicability are paramount to sound
measurement.
23. New metrics in practice
• Programme outputs
audience reach, level of engagement
(likes, shares, retweets, etc)
• Programme outcomes
number of visitors, downloads, views,
calls, event attendance, etc
• Business outcomes
actual sales, market share, cost savings,
leads generated, etc
24. Social media metrics

25. But remember ...
• The difference between monitoring (the
buzz/chatter/conversation) and
measuring.
• Get beyond clip counts and audience
impressions (CPM, print circulation,
etc.)
• Don’t get fixated on one metric or ROI.
• Qualitative analysis is still valid
(awareness, opinion, attitude, brand
preference, purchase intent, advocacy,
perceptions, reputation, etc.)

35. Conclusions
• Measurement is important
• Try to consign AVE’s to the bin!
• It can be affordable using simple, low cost tools
• Digital media opens up opportunities and makes
it easier
• Try to get beyond monitoring to actual measuring
of outcomes
• It’s going to get easier, better, more standardised
and more consistent
