We all recognise that importance of social is great, the question is, how do we exploit this rich source of data to its full potential and derive the right insights that will drive growth for our clients’ brands?
A new Ipsos survey in partnership with the Social Progress Imperative indicates that a majority across countries hit hardest by the COVID-19 pandemic want social progress – rather than economic growth – to be at the fore as the crisis continues and once it ends.
Our monthly round-up of research and analysis from Ipsos around the world includes the latest on coronavirus, attitudes towards abortion, cultural response bias, and a focus on life in Russia, the US election and public perceptions in Ireland.
Ipsos’ Customer Experience team examines the approaches organisations can take to continue to benefit from global studies and gather reliable, efficient and effective results in the face of cultural response bias.
Communicators today are in the fortunate position where data is more abundant than ever; from reputation surveys to campaign measurement tools, business intelligence to employee feedback systems, and from media analysis to owned platform insights. The options for data collection and analytics are endless. However, making sense of this data and consolidating it into a useful system, where insights can be quickly drawn and communicated to leaders throughout the organisation is a daunting task.
The success of a communications strategy is in large part dependent on sound planning. Corporate communicators need to ensure that their function is fully integrated in the business. It needs to be capable of both proactively planning the year ahead whilst remaining sufficiently nimble to react to unexpected and hard-to-predict circumstances that often present communications challenges in the short term.
