Chat Recap: Client Reporting Best Practices with Christine Perkett

May 28, 2015 | Chats

PrintOn the fourth Wednesday in May, we joined forces with special guest PR powerhouse Christine Perkett.

Participants weighed in with opinions and insight on the following topics of interest:

  1. In general, what do clients really care about? What do they want to see in reports?
  2. When are scorecards useful, and what are the pitfalls?
  3. Are there any reporting lessons from large agencies solos could learn from?
  4. What can you do reporting-wise when you have a slow month?
  5. What’s the biggest mistake communications pros make when reporting?
  6. How can PR pros use reporting to demonstrate value?
  7. What are your favorite tips/tricks for reporting?

A few of the top tweets are highlighted below (followed by a link to the full transcript):
