Mapping Analytics to Business Metrics Workshop
Measure what matters
Learn to measure content according to whether it fulfilled its business purpose rather than just numbers like hits, likes, and shares.
Whether your content is intended to empower people with knowledge or to persuade potential customers, this session will give you practical tips on improving your metrics approach. It looks at the common mistakes that content teams make when developing their measurement strategies and how to fix them. Attendees will learn to position content in a way that resonates with the organisation that funded it, and the users who consume it, by focusing measurements on audience journeys and top user tasks.
Despite having more raw data than ever on content and user experience, content teams still measure their output with metrics like simple hits, likes, and shares or isolated data points. Instead, we should be measuring whether it fulfilled its reason for being.
See how businesses made strategic changes resulting in 10s, 100s, and even 1000s of percent improvements on their key content metrics.
