NEW YORK, Oct. 11 -- Dow Jones & Company (NYSE:DJ) today announced the availability of Factiva Insight: Agency Analytics, a Web- based tool that allows professional researchers in public relations agencies and corporate communications departments to conduct high-quality media measurement on demand across premium news sources, Web sites, blogs and message boards. The tool provides researchers and communicators with compelling results around the effectiveness of their communications strategies.
"With the 24-hour news cycle, the need for on-demand media measurement has increased, as clients require fast insight into issues in the media affecting their organizations," said Alan Scott, senior vice president and chief marketing officer of the Dow Jones Enterprise Media Group. "Factiva Insight: Agency Analytics puts full control of the search and chart criteria into the hands of the researchers within public relations agencies and communications departments, enabling them to react quickly to internal or external client requests."
Using the power of the Factiva text-mining platform, the tool streamlines the process of conducting media measurement while freeing researchers from the time-consuming task of gathering information and creating visual reports. They can now spend more time on higher-value analysis that enables them to deliver strategic findings to provide differentiated, winning executive briefs and client pitches.
In addition, Factiva Insight: Agency Analytics was designed to work the way busy public relations agencies and communications departments work. It offers an easy-to-use interface designed to handle multiple projects for multiple clients or groups.
