How To Create Measurable Objectives | Brand Elevation Through Social Media and Social Business | Altitude Branding

First, a quick definition clarification. Goals are your general intentions, the big picture aims. Your objectives are the outcomes that represent achievement of that goal. Things you can actually observe. In order to be classified as an objective, something has to be measurable. You need a way of defining whether or not you have completed them successfully. Strategies are the action plans you’ll execute to reach the objective. Tactics are the pieces and parts of the strategy. So that’s the hierarchy: Goal >> Objectives >> Strategies >> Tactics. If you’ve actually written a clear objective, it’s measurable by definition. (So the term measurable objective is actually rather redundant). We good on that? Okay. | source : altitudebranding.com

Now Newspapers Can Count Their Mobile Audiences, Too | paidContent

The audience size is not trivial. Verve said more than nine million readers accessed news from mobile devices using its publishing platform in March, jumping 243 percent compared to the prior year. In 2010, it expects to serve more than 2.2 billion mobile news pages. Separately, ABC said it found in a survey of member publications, that more than 80 percent said consumers would rely more heavily on mobile devices as a primary information source over the next three years. | source : paidcontent.org

Take our survey, score your HERO project (social media, mobile, or other tech)

we realized that people often have difficulty up front in identifying just what they are about to get themselves into. It's not just the value for customers that's in question, and it's not just the technical effort. It's the political effort -- all the people who have a stake and try to stop you or help you (or "help" you). We devote a whole chapter to this, and we've also developed a tool for measuring projects. Answer a few questions, and then the tool tells you if the effort is in line with the expected value, and whether you've generated a cute little idea (class 1) or a major "shadow IT" effort (class 4). We call it a value-effort evaluation (VEE score). | source : blogs.forrester.com

Confusing Audience Metrics Are Crippling Online Ad Sales

There is precedent for government involvement, he said. Through the '40s, '50s and early '60s, television audience measurements were primitive. For example, Contreras said, a station might tell a local Sears store that if it sold 20,000 TV sets, it could assume at least 20,000 viewers were watching. A congressional committee in the early '60s took note of the flimsy standards and bickering between stations and advertisers, prompting the industry to form the Broadcast Rating Council (now known as Media Rating Council, or MRC). The implicit threat was that Congress would do the job if the industry failed to agree on self-regulation. | source : www.poynter.org

Measuring reader engagement by how often they copy and paste » Nieman Journalism Lab

In a creepy twist, Tracer also counts how many times text is highlighted on a page, even if the user never reaches for the ⌘ and C keys. (Or ctrl and C for PC types.) I’m not sure precisely what that’s measuring, but it feels like engagement. Readers who are moved to copy a passage are likely sharing that content with friends — in an email as much as a blog. (I first discovered the “read more” link some weeks ago when a friend quoted a New York Daily News article in Gchat. “whoa,” I wrote. “that is weird! i could probably wring a post out of that. thank you!”) Dayton Foster, Tynt’s chief operating officer, told me that on news sites, widely viewed content like stories about Michael Jackson aren’t copied as much as less popular but more focused articles. “Niche stuff that’s really good quality will get copied the most,” he said. “Sports is a really great example.” | source : www.niemanlab.org
