All organizations, large and small, need to know if their communication programs are achieving the desired results. This workshop will help you determine if your communications are effective—and how to keep doing it on a shoestring budget. It will cover developing measurable communication plans, and how to measure your messages, channels, and outcomes. Some of these money-saving tips include:
• How to use observational measurement techniques
• Ways to find free research resources inside and outside your organization
• How to insert your research questions into other people’s surveys
• Using pilot/control groups to show the impact of different communication strategies
• Using past communication mistakes to quantify future communication results
Don’t miss this opportunity to meet and learn from the woman who wrote THE book on the communication measurement. To register for this event, please go to http://yankeeiabc.org/
