OUR APPROACH TO CREATING GREATER AUDIENCE ENGAGEMENT AND OUR EXPERIENCES SO FAR @ianrobins
We’re on a journey to creating greater audience engagement.
OUR CHALLENGES
1. No single view of our audience.
2. Editors focused on vanity metrics.
3. Insights and data at individual site level.
4. Lack of data and analytical skills.
5. Legacy infrastructure lacking scalability.
We’ve been asking ourselves...
How might we...?
Create the content that people need.
Build better experiences and services.
Measure the metrics that really matter.
Become audience experts in the markets we serve.
Shape our teams to support our strategy.
STARTING WITH OUR WHY:
OUR PURPOSE
THE GOLDEN CIRCLE
Inspiring people to take the actions that improve their lives and livelihoods, every day.
#CultureCode Our Culture Code explains who we are and who we want to be. It drives our ‘inspire action’ culture.

7 things we’ve learnt so far when implementing a DMP…
Research the market to cut through the ‘brain boil’.
Select a partner based upon a meeting of values.
Form an internal working group with people from different teams.
Identify the business goals and metrics that matter.
Take small steps to learn how things work. Define, test, review, learn, revise.
Be realistic about timelines. Things always take longer than you think.
Make the project visible internally.
We’re just starting out on our journey. We’d love to share in your journey too. [email protected] @ianrobins
