Any business strategy is vastly enhanced by positive media coverage. To keep track of the coverage, there are many online tools for PR that offer to monitor news stories containing your brand or your client’s. Once monitored, then what’s next? Share them with your client or within a company!
RowShare adapts to every type of information that you choose to add – attachments, images, PDFs, filters – and the most recent articles will show at the top, so new articles will be immediately visible! RowShare makes working collaboratively with your colleagues, agency or customers much easier.
Every time a change occurs in the table – a journalist’s name is changed, a new article is added or a new file inserted – the interested parties (manager, client) will be directly notified. And, if several people are working on the table, you can ask to be notified each time the table is edited.
Speaking of collaborative work, everyone can work on the table at the same time without a problem. The trainee, the press agent and even your client can each add and edit items without hindering others’ work and having to send out the updated file again.
Monitor News and Collect Media Coverage Effortlessly
Why it’s important to monitor news? Whether you work in a Small Medium Business or a press relations agency, by keeping track of breaking news about your company or your client, you will stay updated on newsworthy topics our agency can leverage on behalf of your clients. To notify you about relevant topics, you can use free services such as Google Alerts. The other option is to pay one of the many tools available at different prices. Insert the various links you receive in Excel or PowerPoint. But how can you insert printed press articles into an Excel spreadsheet or a printed report into PowerPoint? What usually happens is that just when you’ve consolidated and shared your press reviews you discover a new article. And all you can do is send out a new file… And when your customer requests a hardcopy of his press coverage, generating the document can take some time. What’s more, dedicated software is not always user-friendly and using specific templates can also get a little complicated. So, what solution should you choose? Alternatively, I can show you how to do that with RowShare. You are going to love it!Generate Press Review in One Click
