The role of a PR professional has come a long way since the days of faxing press releases to national news desks in hopes of securing coverage. While media relations is still a major part of our day-to-day jobs, these days PR folks can find themselves doing everything from monitoring social and traditional media trends, managing our clients’ social media handles or handling reporting, analytics and measurement.
What we have found is that there are many tools out there that can 1) Make your lives easier and 2) demonstrate ROI for brands. But finding the right tool the job can be a task in itself. In 2013, PAN launched PANoptic – our holistic approach to measuring success, analyzing conversations and packing data up for our clients – in an effort to identify valuable measurement tools that provide actionable insights.
