What is the Journalist Pulse Report?

Using our extensive connections to the media, our analysts select and contact a handpicked list of journalists within the industries and interest areas you select, asking them a series of  questions to discover key information including:

  • How familiar journalists are with your organisation, product and/or campaigns.

  • How favourably they feel about your brand and what they associate with it.

  • Brand awareness and comparison to competitors.
