AMBITIOUS employs a robust approach to measuring the success of communications efforts. It’s different for each client because it’s tailored to your objectives and business goals. Here are some methods that we use:

Media coverage and reach:

  • Tracking and analysing media placements across relevant channels to quantify the reach and impact of earned media.
  • Align with KPIs such as brand awareness, reputation enhancement, lead generation, or customer engagement.
  • Tracking digital metrics: such as website performance, leads, shares, views and google search rankings.
  • Industry benchmarking: Comparing performance against industry competitors using metrics such as volume, sentiment analysis, views and share of voice.

AMBITIOUS employs a robust approach to measuring the success of communications efforts. It’s different for each client because it’s tailored to your objectives and business goals. We adopt the AMEC (Association for the Measurement and Evaluation of Communication) framework which consists of seven elements: objectives, inputs, activities, outputs, outtakes, outcomes, and impact.

It is a holistic measurement that can be applied across various communication disciplines, including corporate and B2B communications, community relations, digital communications, and stakeholder engagement as well as media relations. We assess variables such as audience reach, message penetration, sentiment, and behavioural changes, alongside quantitative data to ensure that communications strategies align with broader business goals and deliver measurable value across all areas.
