How to manage your virtual PR teams using the Active Communications Index, and take a vacation whilst doing so.
What gets measured gets done, and PR productivity can be monitored by the Activity Communications Index. On this episode, I share what happened to our public relations activity when I went to wonderful Wales for a weeks holiday with the family.
I include the tools which I've used to automate content distribution and the performance of that content in my absence including Repurpose.io and ZOHO. Overall I found that my metrics have held up but that there are sales leads which I should have in my CRM but which aren't for some reason being captured which is an indication that my funnel isn't working properly and that my content strategy needs work. I share that the website is now really only one part of the communications ecosystem that we have to service whilst we are away, and the ACI is a tool which helps to keep a tabs on all the channels which we are using.
The ACI formula:
content x frequency x channels.
On the subject of creating better content, I am excited to be interviewing the Kate Bradley CEO of Lately.ai in an upcoming podcast to explain how I can do this better.
