Essay question:
The “3 M’s of Evaluation”: Metrics, Media exposure and Media impressions, and the Advertising Value Equivalents (AVEs) calculation are the way measuring the value of a media relation campaign. However, AVEs have been criticised as methodologically flawed (see Macnamara 2017), and metrics regarding media exposure and impressions have been criticised as “vanity metrics” that only provide shallow insight into the outcomes of a campaign (PR Week, 2018).
Are contemporary methods of evaluating a media relations campaign fit for purpose in that they can demonstrate the success and value of public relations to clients and/or management?
