"It has never been more important for communicators to be able to demonstrate the value of their work," said Abe Smith, president, EMIA, Cision. "At Cision we pride ourselves on providing our customers with the measurement and insights to show ROI on their campaigns and I am ecstatic that the AMEC Awards panel has recognised the fantastic analysis we have produced for our clients."
Jenny Caven, head of external relations for Slimming World, added: "Working with Cision to implement the Integrated Evaluation Framework was a watershed moment for us. It has enabled us to focus on what really matters: understanding how our earned media strategy is maximising the quality of media exposure across multiple channels and how this is changing audience perception and contributing to growing membership.
"I'm delighted to have been able to share our measurement journey with the audience at this year's AMEC summit in Barcelona. Going on to win further AMEC awards for the second year in a row in 2018 demonstrates that the continued work with Cision in our use and implementation of the Framework is recognised. We've built a success story that can be shared not only with important internal stakeholders but also with the broader communications industry. It's been empowering for our in-house PR team to become part of the community of communications practitioners developing and sharing best practice, for the benefit of us all."
AMEC's two-day summit was held in Barcelona last week to celebrate and recognise the effectiveness of communications and measurement internationally.
The AMEC Awards is the largest awards scheme of its type for communications measurement and insights, open to media intelligence and insights firms, PR companies, client in-house teams, government teams and not-for-profit organisations.
