Course Overview

Most disappointing results in media coverage measurement trace back to an audience defined too broadly. Activity in this strand of marketing and commercial practice is easy to generate and easy to mistake for progress. The difficulty is not agreeing that the practice within marketing and commercial practice matters — it is deciding what to stop doing to make room for it. The material serves both public bodies and commercial organisations dealing with media coverage measurement. Participants develop a defensible line of reasoning for the choices they make about the wider marketing and commercial practice agenda. Post-incident reviews keep identifying weaknesses in this area of marketing and commercial practice that were visible long before the incident. It treats media coverage measurement as an operating discipline and equips participants to run it as one. The teaching approach is deliberately practical: participants build a go-to-market plan for this aspect of marketing and commercial practice as they go. It ends with a prioritised list of changes to this area of marketing and commercial practice that the participant is prepared to defend internally.
