Impressions: The impressions reflect the exposure a mention potentially achieved. The figure is based on the circulation of publications and the number of clippings tracked.

Ad Values: AVE’s Prominence (tonality, visuals, location of mention), RAVE (Advertising Value Equivalent –
formula used to weigh the AVE with the prominence level of mention).

Additional Research

Optionally, we can conduct cross-researches into outtakes and outcomes of  your communication, correlating the impact on stakeholders and results of media coverage.

For example, a survey is conducted in the relevant markets to assess how the intended the messages were received by the publics. Survey results are then put in contrast with coverage performance.
