Measurement Fast Forward
- Help us in a final push!
Francis Ingham & Jeremy Thompson
ICCO and PRCA are delighted to again join together with AMEC in producing a refresh of
the PR Practitioners Guide to Measurement. This is designed to be a practical guide to help
you demonstrate real return on the investment your clients make in your work.
Were making progress. Weve left the debate behind about whether measurement is
important. There can be no doubt that it is key to our future health. Now we want to turn
talking into action.
We want to get PR professionals to realise one unanswerable fact that - they have to build
measurement at the start of their PR program as part of the planning process. Don't wait
until your PR campaign is over to think about measurement. By then the train will have left
the station, your opportunity will have been lost.
Please get behind ICCO, PRCA and AMEC as we work together to persuade more PROs,
agencies, big brands and the C-Suite of the importance of measurement.
Welcome to this new version of the PR Professionals Guide to Measurement. AMEC, PRCA
and ICCO continue to be great collaborators who have recently worked together to update
the original Barcelona Principles of Measurement to deliver Barcelona Principles 2.0, fit for
an integrated digital age.
Our aim together is to continue to educate practitioners that measurement is not an option
but part of a strategic discipline for the public relations industry.

Proving The Value of PR: Why Measurement
Is Important
David Gallagher
I must admit, explaining, why measurement is important in PR can feel a little weird these
days. Id put it in the same bracket as explaining why healthy eating, recycling or wifi are
important.
Most people accept these things are necessary and many of us celebrate them as virtues.
So when people disagree, or need their arms twisting, it can give the impression theyre from
a slightly different era.
The debate about its relative value is over. Adoption is widespread and growing.
Its now hard to imagine a return to the days of zero measurement or clipbooks, especially
given the huge amounts of accessible data we now have at our fingertips. To go backwards
would feel like a terrible retrograde step, wouldnt it? Perhaps not quite in the same league
as abandoning healthy eating, recycling or wi-fi, but retrograde nevertheless. I mean really,
no wifi?
In 2015 potential employers and clients often make their agency selections based on how
evaluation will be tackled.
Procurement teams look for evidence-based returns-on-investment. PRs have earned a seat
at the top table because we can quantify and qualify the real value of our work - and our
advice, service and content is evidence-based.
The real-time content we produce is often iterative and incrementally developed by where
the data leads us. Team assessments are often based on campaign performance. Many of
us are learning to improve how we work by reflecting on what evaluation reports tell us.
6
Adoption may be widespread but some people still cling to old measures that dont take
fundamentals such as quality or impact into account. Just as 20 years ago we were
comfortable with clip books stuffed full with glued-in coverage so today were getting a little
too comfortable with tables of hits and impressions.
For me, these only highlight scale, not the power of PR to change peoples awareness,
perceptions and behaviours or change lives for that matter. A colleague uses the line lets
not use data in the same way a drunk uses a lamppost for support instead of illumination
and hes right - we mustnt ignore measurements primary quality.
As individuals and teams we now find ourselves in a competitive environment that requires a
prove everything mind-set. Creative ideas and strategic insight must be rooted in data.
The impact of our work must be measured not in outputs, but actual outcomes and business
results. And the value of our service must be expressible in the precise terminology of
business, not the vagaries of PR.
The phoney war between those who set data against creativity is finished. Instead, the two
can be seen as a team, working together to push communication forward.
The real value of PR measurement is in how it can evidence your performance, offer better,
richer human insights and bring about continuous improvement not only to your business,
but also to your communications.
If you arent measuring your effect on the bottom line you may not be adequately proving
your whole worth, optimising your campaigns or improving your skill sets.
By missing these opportunities you risk presenting yourself as a professional from a bygone
era. A person with an analogue and cavalier mindset in a digital, evidence-based and
financially responsible age.
Avoid measurement at your own peril and with significant opportunity costs.

Getting started! Your measurement options
and how we created a global system in our
consultancy.
Andy West
During the mid-2000s, something began to change. The media landscape looked different
and there was a growing importance of social in PR campaigns. At first, people began to say
that social was hard or impossible to measure, but this soon proved to be incorrect. In fact,
the prominence of social helped re-evaluate all forms of PR measurement. Enter AMEC and
the Barcelona Principles. The industry needed a universal methodology that turned its back
on AVE, and this was it. This was the tipping point in the quest to find an authentic and
credible measurement framework for the industry.
The need for measurement in PR has been there for a long time. Yet as the world has
suffered in economic turmoil, more prominence has been paid to budgeting in corporations
large and small across the world. The value of everything has been under scrutiny and so
now, more than ever the important of attributing a proper value on PR is essential. PR is not
about column inches, it like anything else is about making money.
9
When AMEC released the Valid Metrics Framework, Hotwire started looking at how this
would align to our existing methodology and thinking something that we have always
valued even before this framework came along. While the changes were not hugely drastic,
the tweaks we implemented helped align our approach to measurement with this new
industry standard. The framework brings credibility and it presents the opportunity to harness
thinking across the industry into a force for change across the agency.
AMECs Framework acts as a brilliant springboard for adoption within different agencies and
is created with adaptation in mind. The primary focus of the Framework to put business
outcome at the forefront and focus of any PR work is something that can be integrated into
any type of PR work, and is something that we adapted quickly. At every stage of the
process, from taking the brief through to management, measurement should be involved.
But how to bring this alive through our business? Being a global agency, we carefully
considered how we would roll out measurement across the international offices for all of our
consultants.
International training was rolled out with video and audio conference around our 11 global
offices, and then subsequently with the affiliate network. At the same time, we had been
road-testing the Framework in some client work. With the account leads selling in
measurement to the client, and then leading teams with the new way of thinking in mind,
uptake was quick. It was through the early examples of implementing the measurement
approach that made international adoption easier.
Following the internal launch, Hotwire released its adaptation of the white paper publicly.
With an event and digital white paper, we brought in speakers to reinforce the importance of
measurement within the PR industry and also to offer examples from our own experience.
Now, AMECs Framework is part of all the work that we do.
PR has been looking for a solid approach to measurement for a long time and there is no
doubt that this goes a long way to meeting that requirement.
As an industry we have to adapt our approach speak to the language of the CMO and not
just the PR Manager. Having measurable business outcomes lying at the heart of
communication strategy is an important first step in embedding the philosophy of true
measurement into PR.
10
Continued education at all levels will be required to steer clients away from legacy attitudes
in areas such as AVEs but then equally, agencies must play their part in continuing to
develop and innovate in all areas of measurement.
Together, the PR industry can and will become fully accountable for its actions and for the
investment business makes in it. And as an agency, we have taken the first small steps to
becoming part of this shift.
Do the groundwork and engage people at all levels across the agency in the development
of the approach before launching internally.
Identify suitable clients with which to roll out the approach, using the success of the
deployment to facilitate sell in to other clients across the network.
Dont assume universal success immediately; it takes time and sometimes baby steps are
needed

A Step-By-Step Approach to PR
Measurement
Mazen Nahawi
Public relations professionals today must measure their work if they hope to be taken
seriously. Measurement has never been more productive and innovative. With the increasing
prominence given to measurement through industry associations, academics and analysis
vendors, it is easier to stay tuned to important media channels, keep tabs on competitors
and anticipate unwelcome surprises than ever before. But to maximize the value and
benefits of a measurement program, its critical to set goals and identify key stakeholders for
the data. How do you get the process started without spending a fortune or risking
repercussions from an unsuccessful program? The tips below are a step-by-step routemap
to get you going in the right direction!
An organisational goal is a
broad idea of what you would
like to achieve, stated in clear,
simple terms. Typically, these
over-arching goals cluster
around the following:
12
Increase revenue and/or lower costs
Increase customer engagement and satisfaction
Strengthen brand preference and loyalty
Enhance reputation
SECOND: DETERMINE
KEY STAKEHOLDERS
AND PRIORITISE
Talk with key internal stakeholders to see what would spell success in
communications
Discover where your most important stakeholders are involved in the social and
digital space
Listen to what they are saying through online and offline surveys and media content
analysis
13
1. An action statement
2. A timeline
3. A target audience
4. A measurement outcome (usually expressed as a % change).
For example, if a business goal is to sell more homes, an objective might be to increase the
number of home tours among first-time buyers aged 25-54 by 50% in the following year.
Simply focusing efforts in this way will increase your likelihood of success and enable you to
modify the objective as you gain history and move forward.
Key Performance
Indicators (KPIs) are
quantifiable (numeric)
measures that enable
you to show progress
over time for each
objective. For example,
if your objective is to get
first-time buyers into
your show homes, some
KPIs might be:
1. An increase in the number of visitors who sign-up for your homebuilder newsletter
2. The ratio of posts to comments on your homebuilder website
3. The increase in home builder profile pages downloaded and attendees to an open
house events
14
FIFTH: CHOOSE TOOLS
AND BENCHMARK
Choosing appropriate tools and metrics for measurement is vital to the success of the
programme - e.g. the AMEC Valid Metrics Framework would enable you to identify the tools
and metrics needed to measure your campaign in terms of:
Public Relations Activity what did you DO? For example, how much content did
you create? How many journalist briefings? White papers? YouTube videos? Twitter
posts?
Intermediary Effects how did the media and key influencers (third parties)
RESPOND to your activities across the Communications Phases - Awareness,
Knowledge, Interest and Support? Are they communicating the right messages, in
a positive manner and in a greater volume than competitive messages? Have they
endorsed or recommended? You can measure this level by charting progress in both:
Owned Media sites - websites, Facebook and Twitter pages, for example.
Non-owned sites or earned media - everything else
Target Audience Effects finally, what ACTION was taken by your target
audience? Actions can be hard or soft, ranging from leads or sales increases and
efficiency savings to brand awareness, customer loyalty and customer satisfaction
improvements. Techniques might include:
Surveys
Correlations and Market Mix Models
Web Analytics
Comparing Earned, Owned, Shared and Paid Channels
15
SIXTH: ANALYSE THE
RESULTS AND COMPARE
TO COSTS
SEVENTH:
PRESENTING TO THE
CEO AND SENIOR
MANAGEMENT
A dashboard or scorecard
with headlines, bullets
and metrics that show
performance trends can
be highly compelling to
the C-suite. Survey
results, correlations to
outcomes, or solid
tracking data from web
analytics, will all resonate
strongly with a CEO and senior management.
16
EIGHTH: MEASURE
CONTINUOUSLY AND
IMPROVE PERFORMANCE
Always start with asking yourself what you want your evaluation to achieve (sounds pretty
basic, but youd be amazed how many organisations forget this vital step).
Be realistic on budget, on timing, on scope. You tend to get what you pay for
Invest time up front with your evaluation provider time invested now in defining
expectations, scope, budget etc will pay dividends down the line.

Chapter 5
Measuring PR performance across borders
how a global programme works.
Colin Wheeler & Chris Talago
This important question is all too often never asked not knowing how the analysis will be
used suggests that there is little point in measurement.
The value that results from good measurement is the data to create better campaigns, which
communicate more effectively and efficiently; to diagnose issues with a campaign and
highlight opportunities to address these issues; and to celebrate successful campaigns,
showing the tangible impact that has been achieved.
The ideal is a programme that is well linked to business results and ultimately to sales, but
even more limited evaluation should help with communications planning to be useful and
justify the investment. If your evaluation can identify product areas that need support and
how best to provide that support, then the benefits are obvious.
18
Consideration 2: Layers of
complexity.
Trying to achieve a consistent brand story across all channels then creates the difficulty of
identifying how individual channels have contributed to any behavioural change.
Markets will have different media environments, leading to challenges in reconciling the
performance on a market-by-market basis.
There is an opportunity within this as well e.g. the ability to test activity in a small market in
a local language, a pilot before a major international campaign which is less likely to leak
across national and language boundaries. This can provide interesting opportunities to look
at individual channels too.
A natural tension is generated by the need for various levels of reporting (e.g.
global/regional/local, channel by channel) and the sharing of budget across teams. For small
19
markets where budget is limited even basic tracking costs can have a disproportionate
impact.
This then is an internal discussion for client teams understanding how they will use the
evaluation to drive communications decision making and how the programme will be funded.
A critical element of the reporting is the quality of the data underpinning the analysis. For
many markets, digital content will fairly represent the media coverage, for others where there
is still a print media news channel, content not necessarily published online a clipping
service specialising in the local markets will be needed.
Good quality data needs good quality tools for analysis, and Waggener Edstrom (WE) has
always been committed to identifying ways to use technology to enhance the accurate
tracking of communications activity e.g. developing tWEndz, an award winning tool from
2010 which was one of the early tools to track activity on Twitter for WE clients.
20
More recently, WE has invested significantly in WE Infinity, an automated platform for
capturing coverage for client campaigns, integrating social media channels and news
platforms and establishing new metrics to demonstrate the performance of communications
activity.
This analysis is a mix of automation and human-led effort, checking that automated
processes have categorised and handled coverage correctly, then allowing the human
researcher to provide additional data for the reporting and create meaningful, actionable
visualisations of the data.
The human quality control reduces the risk of inaccuracy in reporting, and further cross
referencing and re-evaluation of a subset of content ensures consistency across the team of
analysts.
The data and appropriate analytics tools are part of the puzzle, an effective measurement
program is a collaborative exercise. In global campaigns showing value for all the partners is
part of getting buy-in and cooperation.
This means that results need to be made as meaningful as possible for local teams as well
as for the central or global team leads.
The local partner agency and client teams are a hugely valuable resource, particularly
dealing with these layers of complexity. By providing the context and background on
different media environments, competitive landscape, how different channels are being used
at a global and local level, even simple reporting can reflect their understanding in the
analysis, points which may not be obvious in a high level overview will be impactful for a
team with a small budget.
21
- WE provided an initial update focussed on Broadcast and Digital media, followed by
additional detail on impact of print-only media when the data was available.
- Follow up reporting over time (quarterly) continued to be rated highly, due to the link with
WE analyst team in London and local partners.
Taking the time to engage at a local level, understanding their issues will make the reporting
more interesting and relevant to them and therefore more useful at a local market and a
global level.
The identification of markets which have similarities in terms of type of media landscape,
market share/size, etc. will also help comparison between markets and potentially clarify
where spend will have the most impact.
Consideration 5: Performance
The value of evaluation is often underrated for campaigns which have not performed well, or
where some regions or countries have had issues. Good evaluation enables discussion of
underperforming activity by identifying the issues and using this understanding to create
solutions to the problem.
Having the local context to make the outputs relevant to the individual markets makes the
evaluation more useful and actionable, and more valuable to all partners in the
communications process.
In summary
Much of the guidance shared here is relevant to all campaigns, regardless of whether they
have an international or global scope. Global projects do bring additional challenges but
three simple tips will deliver a strong measurement programme and effective
communications.
Make sure your campaign objectives are clear and link your measurement activity to
the objectives focus on outcome measures over output measures where you can.
For a global or multi-national project, use your local contacts to provide the context to
the results from their region or country. The context is what will make your results
more interesting, more widely read and have more of an impact in the creation of
future campaigns.
Use the results of the measurement activity to drive your overall strategy and
campaign activity its an important resource of valuable data. If your evaluation isnt
being used then change it or stop it!
The examples in the essay are drawn from a number of projects undertaken within the
EMEA region, including global projects and those with a pan-regional scope. These
evaluation programmes were developed using the Barcelona Principles and the AMEC
Measurement Frameworks.

Whats the big deal about the Barcelona
Principles and where do we go from here?
David Rockland & Allison Szeliga
The Barcelona Principles are a set of seven principles that provided the first overarching
framework for effective public relations (PR) and communication measurement. First created
in 2010, and refreshed in 2015, they identify the importance of goal setting; the need for
outcomes, instead of outputs-based measurement of PR campaigns; the exclusion of ad
value equivalency metrics; the validity of quantitative and qualitative measurements; the
value of social media; and call for a holistic approach to measurement and evaluation.
If so, you must remember that when originally unveiled in 2010, the Barcelona Principles
meant big changes for some, particularly those that still used metrics such as AVEs and
multipliers. The Barcelona Principles provide both guidelines to measure efficacy of
24
communication campaigns AND provide a basis to enable the replacement of outdated
program measurement models that included AVEs and multipliers.
For most of the fifty or so years PR has been around as a defined marketing and
communications practice, measurement was basically around number of clips, number of
impressions and AVEs. The latter placed the value of PR as the cost of purchasing the
equivalent amount of advertising space.
Back in the day, PR practitioners would then multiply that cost by anywhere from 2 to 7
claiming that earned media was that much more valuable than paid media. What was wrong
with this picture?
Clips and impressions alone are meaningless what if all the clips say that the
particular product is terrible, or that the company is run by criminals? Quality,
including consideration of tone and messaging, has to be a consideration, as does
whether or not the articles are reaching the right audience. If you are selling lipstick,
an article in a hunting magazine probably has little value to you. Conversely, if you
are selling tires, a feature piece in a high-end fashion magazine may not hit your core
target consumer.
It may seem silly to say set goals first, but often communication practitioners have
done some exciting program that has little to actually do with the driving the business
of the client or organization. You may have created a campaign thats trending on
Twitter, but if it didnt drive sales, it was just short-lived buzz.
As for AVEs, why would the cost of advertising be equal to the value of
communication? The cost of advertising isnt equal to the value of advertising. And, if
the articles are negative, why would they be given a positive value? In advertising,
you get to say what you want, where you want, and when you want. With earned
media in particular, you are subject to the vagaries of the editorial process
sometimes you win, and sometimes you dont. On the other hand, it is often much
less expensive than a multi-million dollar ad buy, and with an editorial endorsement
can have a much larger impact on sales.
And, is earned media always more valuable than advertising? While we would like
this to be true since we work for a firm that produces earned media for clients, the
reality is that such multipliers have been proven over and over to not exist generally.
Luckily, the communication measurement and evaluation world is maturing. One reason this
has come about is that getting data around press coverage is way cheaper than it has ever
been.
When we started work at Ketchum, junior staff painstakingly clipped articles by hand, literally
pasting them in a book, and delivering that book as proof of value at the end of the quarter or
year.
25
Now, with digital
aggregators, getting the
coverage is simple and
relatively much less
expensive. With social
media tools, you can get lots
of data very quickly. And
when you add the additional
layer of evaluation the
actual process of using data
to make a judgement on
value and effectiveness of
communication it can help us understand and convey the why behind the quantitative
outcomes.
Another reason communication measurement and evaluation is maturing is also a shift from
counting earned media to counting what is much more important target audience change
and organizational results. Now, you can add a few questions to a brand or advertising
tracking survey and know if and what communication overall, including PR, is creating
awareness, favorability, purchase and recommendation.
And, with earned media data now much easier and cheaper to get, you can add it into
market mix and other statistical models to show the effects of earned media on sales, brand
equity and even organizational performance. In other words, you can do with all
communication including PR what has been done for advertising, direct mail and other
marketing channels for a long time.
The playing field has been levelled, but part of that levelling is also the understanding of how
different channels affect one another. When we do market mix modelling for clients, what we
often find is that each channel not only has its own effects on sales, but also tends to affect
the other channels. In other words, advertising and PR, for example, benefit one another.
One plus one becomes three.
Is the maturation of communication measurement complete? No, far from it. But, the
Barcelona Principles started the process. From it has emerged a measurement framework
that can help all communication practitioners that really bring the Principles into daily
practice. And, we will continue to see certification programs in communication measurement
that define what a professional needs to know before he/she can really call themselves a
communication professional.
Well, certainly, AMEC and ICCO have got the ball rolling and are continuing to make
progress.
26
However, what is also heartening to see it lots of others have jumped on board and adopted
the Barcelona Principles including PR firms and PR member organizations around the world,
Government teams, and companies and organizations of all sizes, including large
corporations such as FedEx and Philips. Many companies like our own have been leading
this charge with our clients and the associations we belong to. We see that our business is
really driven by the edict prove everything or die.
As practitioners, we must always be prepared to prove our value and the ROI of
communication. But if we dont complete the switch from silly metrics such as AVEs to sales
and ROI measurement, we will no longer be relevant to our clients. As a set of professional
measurement guidelines and practices, our goal is to ensure that the Barcelona Principles
continue to act as a baseline that professionals can use today and in the future.
When you report results, place them in the context of the business objectives of the
organization as well as against the goals of the communications program you are measuring
Ask yourself how you can move your measurement program to the next level, whether it
be to add a quality dimension to media measurement if you are only counting clips, or from a
change in consumer perception to its impact on business performance

Chapter 7
You can measure social media.
Richard Bagnall
To differentiate themselves from their competitors, most of the media analysis companies
then created their own proprietary scoring systems and indices which took these different
metrics, weighted them and then presented them as a single number. They then tried to tell
their clients that this number and the other output metrics represented the success of their pr
campaigns.
28
Measuring outputs alone is never going to tell a PR professional how successful their PR
campaign has been. The analysis industry was answering the wrong questions. PRs were
being asked by their bosses to demonstrate the value that their work was creating for their
organisation. As an answer they were being provided with a proprietary score based on an
output metric of which no one else in their organisation would have heard. And to cap it all
off, most of these scores were largely meaningless, and all were flawed. It was no wonder
therefore that PR measurement tended to confuse and disengage most of the industry, and
consequently that PR has always struggled to prove it's value successfully.
Recognising this challenge, AMEC took a leadership position back in 2010 when it drove
through the Barcelona Principles (http://bit.ly/YqJAB3). In a nutshell, these 7 statements
encouraged the PR and its associated measurement industry to think more credibly about
how to measure communications success by talking the language of business.
In addition to confirming that AVE's were a meaningless metric, the Principles also state that
to measure success properly, we need to move on from measuring outputs to focusing
instead on measuring outcomes. Put simply, this means that instead of leaving the
measurement just at what we have generated (outputs), we need to focus on what this work
has actually achieved (out-takes / outcomes) for our organisation. The Barcelona Principles
also state of course that social media can and should be measured.
Since 2010 a lot of further work has been done to help the industry think about the correct
way to measure social media. AMEC has again taken a leadership position with its social
media group working in partnership with other trade bodies around the world in PR and the
wider marketing community to set best practice and standards for measuring social media.
At first glance, the massive changes that have occurred in the PR and media industries over
the last 5-10 years make it seem that measuring our success must be even more confusing
than ever. Many in the industry understandably are desperate for AMEC to come up with a
single number that could let everyone know how successful their work has been.
This is not going to happen however. In the same way that a single number was always
flawed in the more simplified world of traditional media analysis, a single number will not
work when measuring social media. The search for a magic bullet can be called off now as
it simply does not and will never exist.
The reassuring news however is that the more things have changed, the more they have
actually stayed the same. The right approach to measuring social media is to focus
relentlessly on your objectives and then to measure in a manner that reflects them. Think
clearly at the outset what it is that you are looking to achieve with your social media
campaign. What conversations do you want to join? What thoughts are you looking to
influence? What outcomes are you looking to drive?
Don't be tempted to make the same mistakes as were made in the old days. Frustratingly,
this is the number one problem that I have found PRs are experiencing with social media
measurement. Specifically don't rely on the new SAAS (Software as a Service) platforms
alone to monitor and measure your work, they are very unlikely to be able to get you to the
tailored measurement and out-take / outcome metrics that you need.
29
Instead, think about the different objectives of each part of your social campaign and then
how you might measure each in a credible manner.
So for example, if looking to measure the exposure that you are getting with your core
audience you should consider measuring the following:
If looking to measure the engagement that you are having with your core audience then you
might want to consider these:
Comments/posts ratio
Number of links
'@' mentions / Retweets / Retweets as a percentage of the total
Number of bookmarks / likes / votes / 'pins'
Shares & Likes
Subscriber numbers
URL visits
Awareness
Resolution rate
And of course if looking to measure the action that has happened as a result of the social
media campaign then you should consider 'out-take / outcome' metrics such as:
Footfall
Purchase / donations
Website visits & downloads
Coupon redemption, endorsement
Awareness etc
Clearly not all of these metric suggestions will be relevant to each campaign, and conversely
these are just a few suggestions and not an exhaustive list. As is always the case, the
metrics will need to be tailored to what it is that you are trying to achieve.
What you will also see is that not all of these metrics are available from content analysis of
the online conversations alone. Instead they necessitate market research, others will
involve working with web analytics, and others will need you to work with your marketing or
sales team to gather the date required.
By following this approach however you will be able to focus clearly on what success looks
like to your organisation and report back in a language that everyone understands.
30
AMEC is soon to launch a revised Valid Metrics Framework which will develop this approach
into a grid that you can use as a template for each campaign. This will be launched at the
European Summit in Madrid in June 2013 and will then be available for download from
AMEC's website at amecorg.com/social-media-measurement.
In the meantime, you can follow the conversation on twitter with the hashtag #smmstandards
and the march towards standards at smmstandards.org.
Social media measurement must not be allowed to make the same mistakes of the past.
Don't just count what is easy to count and report using meaningless charts hoping that
somehow you are providing effective analysis. Instead as an industry we must seize this
opportunity to prove the value of our work with credible metrics, that reflect our objectives
and really demonstrate our success. The PR industry deserves nothing less.
Begin with the end in mind Measure against your objectives, align your social objectives
to those of your organisation
Measure appropriately - Be wary of automation, and counting basic metrics that are easy
to count but basically meaningless
A few charts and numbers are not measurement successful social media measurement
needs relevancy, context and insight
Dont fear measurement, embrace it, its there to help guide you not criticise you!

Only when you have the killer insight will
the killer creative be born
Michael Frohlich
The best-in-class public relations campaigns those that deliver beyond stakeholder
engagement and media coverage to create lasting behavior change - are grounded in a
strong underlying audience insight.
A well-researched and clearly expressed insight is a far greater driver of success than a
brilliant PR-able idea. Often considered the domain of advertising creative development,
insights are equally the backbone of a successful creative PR idea as they provide a fresh
understanding of a situation or trend that moves our thinking from what it is to what it means.
This is essential if we want a new way of framing a situation that sparks reconsideration and
support for change.
An insight immediately makes sense when it arrives and sparks an Aha! emotional
response. It helps consumers/customers make connections, which they may not have
previously had.
Insights are not merely facts or observations from research, or reading a few online posts.
New mums are under pressure and time poor or Dubai consumers trust recommendations
from celebrities.
32
So how do you build an insight?
Try to experience the category as they do. Social media listening is a great first step. Start
with a conversation audit to understand how the category or brand is described. Use social
media tools for instant online research, for example, Cadbury UK is very clever at using its
Google+ page and Hangout groups with trusted customers for new insights.
The most critical step is getting out of the office to find the dots. So get out from behind your
computer and go on home visits to see how the category/brand is used in situ. You don't
need a full ethnographic study to immerse yourself in your audience just dive in and see it
for yourself. For example, in-home visits for the room air freshener category uncovered that
plug-in air fresheners are often concealed behind sofas so consumers dont notice when
they run out.
Work in your brands store for a day as a sales trainee, or in your clients office to observe
what they discuss about the category. Accompany a sales rep for a day, especially in B2B
and pharmaceuticals where experiencing the category directly may not be an option. If its a
brand with a consumer call centre, ask to listen in on their call centre line for a few hours to
understand brand frustrations and the current tone of voice. And most importantly- interview
customers / consumers ask them what you want to know.
David Ogilvy said, Stuff your conscious mind with information, then unhook your rational
thought process. All the rich data and information collected needs time to percolate, be
given time to create a story. It can be helpful to use a war room a dedicated room where
all the dots can be plastered around so you can visually seek out the connections.
Talk team members through the data gathered and listen for their questions and comments
to see what they reveal. Read campaign case studies on databases such as warc.com to
33
learn how similar marketing challenges were tackled in other countries or categories. And
sleep on it for a couple of days to see what emerges.
Simple. An insight should look simple, read simply and translate simply into your planning.
Expressing your insights is, in effect, a copywriting exercise and often benefits from working
with a professional copywriter.
The time invested in killer insight development speeds up the idea generation stage
considerably, allowing you to spend more time on generating many more killer creative
ideas.
Be PROVOCATIVE. Abandon all goals for broad coverage. Aim for the right impact only.
Become obsessive about "how did this change behaviour?" not how much coverage it got.
Design communications programs from the outset to drive behaviour change, not clippings.
Speak the language of the boardroom. Always strive to measure business outcomes not
PR outputs enabling results to be banked (ie. not clippings or AVE). This may be a longer
term outcome (eg. new leads to closing deals 12 months later) or corporate reputation gains
that open up access to new resources or cost savings from deeper employee engagement
and reduced staff turnover.
Reserve campaign budget for quality impact and outcome measurement to prove
business impact.

Chapter 9
The client view of what measurement looks
like.
Elayne Phillips
When I think back, to not more than five years ago, the norm in press offices across the
country involved staff busily issuing statements, circulating press releases and basically
sending out stuff. These outputs were easily measured, and the larger the numbers were,
the better. The problem of course was that these results did not account for sentiment,
whether the readership was the target audience or what difference the coverage made to
profits, sales, behaviour or other organisational objectives.
Im not saying these outputs shouldnt be recorded knock yourself out - but alongside
evaluation of whether communications achieve (or contribute to) business outcomes. Having
worked in this field for a few years now, I recognise that outcomes are typically more difficult
to measure than outputs. But gone are the days where a supplier can provide metrics, a tool
or pretty dashboards with no understanding of whether these are useful to inform what we
do next. Now the most successful evaluation businesses are collaborating with their clients,
really listening and asking the right questions. Measurement to me looks at the big picture
the objectives, the performance of our channels, the outcomes achieved and what weve
learned from successes and failures along the way.
Actionable insights is a term I say a lot its probably rather annoying - but honestly its the
bottom line. We must be able to demonstrate our value, show how communications
contribute towards business goals and quickly respond to what works or doesnt so we can
focus efforts on activities that are successful. And we need our partners working with us to
do the same.

#ChipMyDogThe introduction of
the Social Media Measurement
Framework by AMEC at its fifth
annual summit in Amsterdam
was much welcomed and was
supported by the UK
Government, PRCA, ICCO and
CIPR. This updated framework
is easy to use, downloadable
and came with a helpful list of
recommended metrics to
consider.
Why is it important?
Finding gems of insight that change what we do next eliminates waste, helps us to better
understand our audiences, anticipate their interests and meet their needs while achieving
our goals.
Measurement has an important part to play before, during and after campaigns and also
during times of crisis. So I assess measurement and evaluation by asking a number of
questions What is the business and communication objective? What impact did press
releases or social media posts have? Did they drive people to take up a Government
scheme? Did the target audience change their behaviour? Did our partners, influencers or
stakeholders contribute in a positive way? What is the sentiment within the target audience?
Is there a mix of qualitative and quantitative metrics so we can identify why the change
occurred? If there are no direct measures, are there indicators or proxies we can use to
assess success?
So what do we need?
This is chapter 9 of this PR Measurement Guide so this is not the first time SMART
objectives have come up. But I have to reiterate how important they are. SMART objectives
make measurement and evaluation effective, and having them nailed from the start means
investment in communications can be demonstrably well spent this is particularly important
for Government spending tax payers money.
Modern measurement always involves social media it has a key part to play in evaluation
and its fast paced nature provides real-time tracking and can even be used as an early
warning system. It is however one piece of a bigger jigsaw and the industry is moving
towards a more integrated approach to telling the full story. There is a wealth of data out
there so choosing the metrics that matter is important. For a typical government campaign,
36
that can be anything from social analytics to call centre volumes/correspondence, to export
rates, take up of apprenticeships or affordable homes.
With all this data, it means that the typical communicator needs good agencies and suppliers
that really listen, that collaborate and get underneath what the organisation is seeking to
achieve. Modern communicators now need to be multi-skilled in communications and
measurement.
Dont measure for vanity. Measure what matters against your objectives and demonstrate
successes; but equally use measurement to identify what didnt work and take action as a
result.
Fully understand the problem and objectives before you plan. At this planning stage set
out the key metrics you will track including outputs, outtakes and outcomes.
Dont overcomplicate the reports. Communicate the findings with context so they make
sense to those who are not expert in the field and tell the story of what it means for the
organisation.

Big Measurement Lessons from a Small
Budget Campaign: Case Study
Shonali Burke
Lack of budget is one of the most frequently cited reasons for abysmal PR measurement (or
the complete lack thereof). But if a nonprofit can do it on zero-to-no budget, that stops being
an excuse.
I give you Oxfam Americas (OA) International Womens Day (IWD) campaign.
The charge
The objectives
38
Since every good campaign begins with the end in sight, our discussions led us to agree on
our objective: to pitch and secure posts featuring or highlighting the 2012 IWD campaign,
that specifically asked readers to:
The end-goal was to secure as many new constituents to OAs eCommunity as possible,
since these are the people OA can activate when advocacy is needed.
Whats measurable?
And in 2011, there were seven blog posts on the campaign that had been tracked.
So I figured at least a 25% increase on both fronts the eCommunity front, as well as the
post front would be a reasonable goal to set.
The big lesson here, of course, is that when you dont have a benchmark, its really tough to
set measurable objectives. And it takes time to look at the data you have, even if theyre
limited, to figure those out. So start doing this as soon as you can.
OA already knew that women, particularly urban women, are an important audience for
them. Then there was the fact that the actions we hoped people would take were digital
actions.
Using a variety of resources and a lot of sweat equity, we created outreach lists of mommy
bloggers, women in the tech and entrepreneur community, influencers in the area of
nonprofit/social good, social media influencers, and some general outlets that popular with
39
the social media crowd and women in general (e.g. Mashable). We netted out at about 245
outlets on our target list.
The results
Almost 2,000 (1,194) senders sent slightly over 2,000 (2,044) eCards to more than 5,000
(5,515) recipients.
The eAward was downloaded approximately 1,000 times between March 7 and March 10.
And the big one: OA secured 752 new constituents to its eCommunity via the eCards.
Comparing that to 261 for 2011, thats a 288% increase.
The top 28 traffic sources (defined as driving five or more visits) to OAs eCards page
included 14 of the 42 blog posts we secured; so blog placements, many of which included
the anchor text we had included in our pitches and the sample post, were a significant driver
of traffic to that page
There was a strong correlation between the publishing of the blog posts and search traffic
via keywords such as international womens day ecards, womens day ecard, and so on.
40
Theres nothing fancy about this measurement, and it was done on no budget at all but it
showed results not just in terms of outputs, but outcomes which is ultimately what we must
be working towards.
Agree on measuring criteria and methodology (budget does not always allow for a
research company to research a campaign and the impact). And remember to measure all
platforms.
ROI the impact of on the target audience vs the spend on the campaign. (ROI is not
about the sales or the impact on the bottom line it is about the reputation, the target
audience perceptions / media perception changes and influences)

What we mean! Definitions and terms
Neil Wholey
Glossary
Every fast changing industry has its jargon. The lexicon emerges to aid efficient
communication, but that efficiency is only achieved when everyone knows what the words
and phrases really mean, and uses them consistently. This glossary aims to help secure that
consistency sooner than otherwise.
Feedback is welcome of course via the comments section at the end, and well update the
glossary monthly based on relevant feedback.
All hyperlinks are cross-references. Links to external webpages are indicated by an arrow at
the end of the respective entry.
0-9
+1 allows users of the Google+ social network to recommend websites and other things
online; similar in use to Facebooks Like button.
Audience / target audience a specified group within a defined public targeted for
influence.
44
AVE Advertising Value Equivalents; a discredited approach to gauging the value of public
relations(or media relations more precisely). See Barcelona Principles.
Blog a series of content, typically text or image, published on a web page in sequential
date order focused on a subject or issue and encouraging interaction. Also see vlog.
Bot a software application that runs automated tasks over the Internet. Typically, bots
perform tasks that are both simple and structurally repetitive, at a much higher rate than
would be possible for a human alone.
Bounce rate A bounce is when a visitor to a website only views a single page before
leaving. Bounce rate is the percentage of visits to a webpage where this occurs. A high
bounce rate indicates a lack of engagement.
Click each instance when a visitor follows a hyperlink from one page to another, or
expects some other action.
Cutting: the piece of written material containing messages about the client or its products or
an extract from a paper or magazine regarding a particular account. Also commonly referred
to as clipping
Communication: the credible, honest and timely two-way flow of information that fosters
common understanding and trust.
Copy: the text produced by a consultancy for a press release or article. Journalists also refer
to their news stories or features as copy.
CPRF Council of Public Relations Firms, the trade association for public relations firms in
the US.
45
CPRS Canadian Public Relations Society.
Download a copy of a document or other digital file is pulled from a web server to the
users Internet connected device. When a user accesses a web page, its actually
downloaded from a web server to the users browser, but this isnt usually whats meant
when the word is invoked.
Earned media third-party media coverage secured through a relationship or news worthy
event, rather than paid-for advertising or other means of securing media. Includes on- and
off-line media. Often used synonymously with public relations, but public relations is not
defined by media.
Evaluation the assessing of the impact and value of a series of actions in achieving
desired outcomes from start to finish. The recording of the actions themselves, such as the
amount, potential value and frequency is only part of the evaluation process.
Eyeballs the aggregated published or acknowledged readership numbers for all content in
which a brand or organisation receive published content. (See impressions, and
opportunities to see.)
Forum an online site hosted by a community to discuss and interact about its area of
interest.
Frequency the amount of times that an event occurs. Often used in conjunction with reach
(seeReach and Frequency).
Hits the logged request for a file on a webpage and images and other digital assets on that
page made by a browser, a search engine or a webcrawler. Commonly confused as a count
of the number of times that the page has been viewed in its entirety. Also, see media hits.

I
Impact commonly used when analysing how much visual presence and wow factor a
piece of content carries. Is often measured in a number of different ways by different
companies and commonly results in the use of a scoring system. Component impact
measures might include size of headline, font, article, presence of imagery, position in
publication etc.
Influence you have been influenced when you think in a way you wouldnt otherwise have
thought or do something you wouldnt otherwise have done. There is currently no scalable
facility to ascertain or infer who or what caused someone to change their mind or behaviour.
Metrics often presented as measuring influence (eg. Klout) do not measure influence, rather
the propensity for an individuals social media contributions to be shared, and the reach of
that sharing, and this idea is increasingly being rechristened social capital. However, the
degree of influence can be measured on a case by case basis through scientific research
techniques such as statistical analysis and randomised controlled trials. These can help
develop our understanding of how people are influenced and fine tune generalised
approaches.
IPR the Institute for Public Relations, a US based independent non-profit foundation
dedicated to the science beneath the art of public relations.
KPIs Key performance indicator(s); define a set of values against which to measure
success. KPIs must be defined to reflect objectives and strategy, and will be sufficiently
robust for the measurement to be repeatable. Quantitative KPIs can be presented as a
number, ratio or percentage. KPIs tend to be:
47
L
Like allows users of the Facebook social network to recommend websites and other things
online; similar in use to Google+s +1 facility.
Lurker someone who reads social media content but doesnt actively participate in debate
and communication.
Media hits an item or piece of content to be counted or measured. Not to be confused with
hits.
Message board a script on a website with a submission form that allows visitors to post
messages (called threads or posts) on your website for others to read. These messages
are usually sorted within discussion categories, or topics, chosen by the host, or possibly the
visitor. A messageboard is also called a web board or a forum.
Microblogs online short form communication services that facilitate the public exchange of
text, video and image links. Popular microblogs include Plurk, Twitter, Tumblr, Posterous,
identi.ca, Yammer, and Jaiku. China tends to have its own popular microblogging sites that
include Sina Weibo and Tencent Wiebo.

MRC The Media Rating Council is a USA based industry-funded organisation established
in the early 1960s at the behest of the US Congress after the Harris Hearings on Broadcast
Ratings with the remit to review and accredit audience rating services. It exists to improve
the quality of audience measurement by rating services and to provide a better
undertstanding of the applications and limitations of rating information. It does this through
three main activities:
MT Modified tweet (see RT); when a Twitter user lightly edits or appends another Twitter
users tweet before forwarding it to their network.
Net Promoter Score (NPS) an approach to quantifying customer loyalty and advocacy
based on customers answers to the question: Would you feel comfortable recommending
us to others?
Outcome Something that has happened as the result of a campaign. In public relations
this would typically be defined as a measurable change in awareness, knowledge, attitude,
opinion, behaviour or reputation metrics.
Output in PR terms, the material and activity that the PR professional generates such as a
press release, email, events etc. as well as the ensuing media coverage that is generated.
Outputs will also include proactive communication by an organisation on its owned media
channels and properties.
Out-take what an audience now understands having been exposed to content about an
organisation or a brand. Out-take occurs before an outcome, although some pundits ignore
out-take and just discuss outputs and outcomes.
Owned media media channels that are owned by or in the control of an organisation or a
brand. Typically these will include websites, company blogs, newsletters and brand accounts
in social media.
Page views A request for a file from a webserver whose type has been defined as a page
in the log analysis of the web server. One page view may account for many web hits.
49
PageRank According to Google: PageRank reflects our view of the importance of web
pages by considering more than 500 million variables and 2 billion terms. Pages that we
believe are important receive a higher PageRank and are more likely to appear at the top of
the search results.
Paid media content that has been generated as a result of a purchase such as an advert
or an advertorial.
Podcast an audio or video clip that is available for download online to listen to or watch at
a time of the recipients choosing. Originally used to describe a series of content, the term is
often now used to describe a single piece of content.
PRCA The Public Relations Consultants Association is the professional body that
represents UK PR consultancies, in-house communications teams, PR freelancers and
individuals. The PRCA promotes all aspects of public relations and internal communications
work, helping teams and individuals maximise the value they deliver to clients and
organisations.
PRSA The Public Relations Society of America is the worlds largest organisation of public
relations professionals with more than 21,000 members across the United States.
PRSSA The Public Relations Student Society of America has 10,000 members at colleges
and universities internationally.
Quantitative Data that can be quantified and summarised with a numerical figure. Often
used to describe quantitative research techniques such as public opinion surveys.
Qualitative Data that is descriptive and non-numerical. Often used to desckjribe qualitative
research techniques such as focus groups. To confuse matters qualitatively gathered
information can be quantified in some cases. Similarly in a quantitative survey there may be
a box for verbatim qualitative comments. These in turn may be quantified by coding answers
and counting how many comments occurred within each code. Finally some data techniques
which require significant interpretation, such as identifying customer
groups/segments/clusters, might be classed by some as qualitative techniques.
Randomised Controlled Trials Selecting two random samples with similar characteristics
and only carrying out an intervention in one; thus enabling any change that occurs to be
attributed to the intervention.
50
Reach a dis-aggregated number of people (or percentage of an audience) that have been
exposed to content. Reach differs from impressions, opportunities to see and eyeballs in
that it counts the actual number of people exposed to coverage rather than the number of
opportunities to see the coverage. It is a widely mis-used term in the industry and should
only be used when readership data has been dis-aggregated to take account of cross
readership patterns.
Reblog when a bloger effectively endorses another bloggers post by posting it facsimile to
their own.
Relationship the way in which two or more people or things are connected, or the state of
being connected.
Representative random sample a randomly selected subset of the total data pool
(universe) that accurately reflects the profile of the whole data pool. Defined mathematically
but often not as pure in practice as can be impacted on by not all the data pool being
accessible. For example, a random sample could be drawn of news clippings publically
available online but would necessarily exclude those on paid sites (such as the Times in the
UK). This could be misrepresented as a sample of all newspapers. In market research not all
those randomly selected to take part in a survey do take part and initially representative
samples can be skewed to those more likely to take part.
Reputation the beliefs or opinions that are generally held about someone or something.
RT retweet; when a Twitter user endorses another Twitter users tweet by forwarding it to
their network.
Sentiment often used interchangeably with tone, but more precisely refers to the feelings
the author is trying to convey.
51
Sentiment analysis a subtopic of semantic analysis; computationally trying to determine
the authors emotional regard for or attitude towards something from the text alone; usually
expressed on a 3- or 5-point ordinal scale (eg, very unfavourable, unfavourable, neutral,
favourable, very favourable).
SEO search engine optimization; the process of editing a webpage to help maximize its
PageRankand similar quantifications of its relevance to particular search terms.
Social aggregation sites websites that collect content from multiple sources and re-
presents it in one location.
Social analytics the application of search, indexing, semantic analysis and business
intelligence technologies to the task of identifying, tracking, listening to and participating in
the distributed conversations about a particular brand, product or issue, with emphasis on
quantifying the trend in each conversations sentiment and influence.
Social bookmarking sites websites and services that allow users to store, manage,
organise and share links of content from across the web. Examples include Delicious,
Reddit, Stumbleupon, Digg, Pinterest.
Social capital a phrase growing in use to substitute for the inappropriate use of the word
influencewhen it comes to services such as Klout, PeerIndex, PeopleBrowsr and Traackr.
Social capital is often taken to mean the frequency with which a sources social media
contributions are shared, and the reach of that sharing. Not every social share is accretive to
social capital. Social capital is destroyed when stuff is shared in disagreement, disgust or
mockery for example.
Social media media that isnt traditional / industrial / mass media; media that is
interactive.
Social media spam can be either content or user accounts (for example on Twitter and
Facebook). The content is often auto-generated and designed solely to promote a sale, a
fraud or often to promote porn. The content is mass distributed and has no element of a
conversation to it.
Social Web consists of social media, applications, services and the network of devices.
Splog a spam blog is a blog used to promote affiliate websites with the intention of
increasing search engine ranking or to sell products or adverts.
Strategy Michael Porter defines strategy to be about selecting the set of activities in which
an organisation will excel to create a sustainable difference in the marketplace, and thereby
creating sustained value for its shareholders (or sustainable value in the case of non-profits).
52
T
The Coalition a group of PR trade bodies working together to lead the profession towards
measuring social media in a meaningful and credible manner. The coalition includes AMEC,
CPRF and the IPR.
The Conclave a loose body of interested parties looking to extend the work of The
Coalition to include other marketing disciplines which social media also touches.
Tone often used interchangeably with sentiment, but more accurately refers to the general
character and attitude the words convey.
Troll a person that lurks on message boards and social media properties making
inflammatory comments.
Vision describes what an organisation wants to be; often described alongside the
organisationsmission and values.
Visits per session a series of web page requests from the same uniquely identified client
(eg, laptop or smartphone) with a time limit of 30 minutes between each page request.
Vlog a blog created using video content, typically focussed on a cause or special interest.
Wiki a website facilitating collaborative editing. The best known wiki is Wikipedia.
