KPIs, Data, Reporting and Communication. Stop Pandering to Others, Start Maximising your Relationships.

on 15:00, 05/03/2011

Whether it's your startup 3-man band, a supplier, the day-to-day account manager or the HiPPOs of this industry - communication is always key. In the world of search marketing, we can often get so caught up with the nitty gritty, we forget just how to communicate on a wider level. Great work is undermined because nobody realises how great it really is, business is lost because we didn't realise until it was too late. Here we'll look at how to manage expectations, build on existing relationships, making sure you set the KPIs that make sense, how to report back without losing hours of your life and reporting back on the things that matter. Underutilised yet powerful tools.
