#7 Planning

exercise

@wadds

46 | 21.11.2014

#PRtoolbox

We’re obsessed about the application of so-called big

data in public relations to inform and measure the success

of our campaigns.

But what does that actually mean in practice?

47 | 21.11.2014

#PRtoolbox

This is a public relations planning exercise using data and

tools to identify a public (or audience to use marketing

parlance) and insights to influence behavioural change.

I’ve used free or low-cost tools to enable other people you

to experiment with the process and methodology.

The deck was inspired by Julian Cole’s Digital Strategy

Toolbox 2014 keynote at Upload Lisboa 2014, Portugal.

Julian is head of planning at BBH in New York. Look him up

on Twitter @JulianCole.

48 | 21.11.2014

#PRtoolbox

Free or low cost tools are never as sophisticated or robust as

commercial tools and there is no guarantee of the quality

of the output or continuity of service.

There is no such thing as free.

49 | 21.11.2014

Challenge

A travel agent wants to attract people from around the UK

to visit Leeds for short breaks.
