We would like to demonstrate how easy it could be to start collecting all news mentions using NewsCatcher's News API.
But first, let's talk about why should you even care about media monitoring.
Media monitoring for PR & Communications will help you get answers to the following questions:
- What media are saying about our brand? Or, the brands of our clients?
- What are the arising risks related to our industry/market?
- Take control of our brand's image. Our reputation might be your biggest value.
- How customers are seeing the image of our brand?
- What is the result of our past PR effort? How many journalists wrote about it?
Media monitoring is the right way to never miss a story about your brand, your competitors, and your industry.
