One area of opportunity lies in the unprecedented amount of audience data communicators now have available to them; PR and marketing professionals can determine which channels are best for their target audiences and what type of content garners the best response in order to gain a deeper understanding of client behavior. The first step in tapping into this wealth of information is using the right tools and metrics before pros begin analysis to refine their current and future strategies.
