id=\"how-to-pr-clipping\">How to conduct PR clipping?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>PR clipping (also called Press clipping) can be done manually. But it&#8217;s almost impossible, especially online, where mentions of companies are many. The process would be very time-consuming and inaccurate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It definitely gets easier if you decide to conduct a PR clipping with a dedicated clipping service, which monitors all of the web content automatically and finds mentions of a specific company, industry, or campaign for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Here are three steps to do PR clipping:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Find a media monitoring service that you want to use. Start a free trial if it offers one. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Set up your first monitoring project and enter keywords that you want to monitor. <br><br>They can be associated with your company name, your competitors, your industry, a specific product that you offer, or a campaign that you run. You can also enter hashtags if you want to track any specific ones.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure data-wp-context=\"{&quot;imageId&quot;:&quot;69f071bc1380f&quot;}\" data-wp-interactive=\"core\/image\" data-wp-key=\"69f071bc1380f\" class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full wp-lightbox-container\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"375\" data-wp-class--hide=\"state.isContentHidden\" data-wp-class--show=\"state.isContentVisible\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\" data-wp-on--load=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on-window--resize=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" src=\"https:\/\/brand24.com\/blog\/app\/uploads\/2023\/01\/pr-clipping-set-up.png\" alt=\"how to set up media monitoring tool for pr clipping?\" class=\"wp-image-182699\" srcset=\"https:\/\/brand24.com\/blog\/app\/uploads\/2023\/01\/pr-clipping-set-up.png 1000w, https:\/\/brand24.com\/blog\/app\/uploads\/2023\/01\/pr-clipping-set-up-18x7.png 18w, https:\/\/brand24.com\/blog\/app\/uploads\/2023\/01\/pr-clipping-set-up-300x113.png 300w, https:\/\/brand24.com\/blog\/app\/uploads\/2023\/01\/pr-clipping-set-up-248x93.png 248w, https:\/\/brand24.com\/blog\/app\/uploads\/2023\/01\/pr-clipping-set-up-90x34.png 90w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><button\n\t\t\tclass=\"lightbox-trigger\"\n\t\t\ttype=\"button\"\n\t\t\taria-haspopup=\"dialog\"\n\t\t\taria-label=\"Enlarge\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-init=\"callbacks.initTriggerButton\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--right=\"state.imageButtonRight\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--top=\"state.imageButtonTop\"\n\t\t>\n\t\t\t<svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"12\" height=\"12\" fill=\"none\" viewBox=\"0 0 12 12\">\n\t\t\t\t<path fill=\"#fff\" d=\"M2 0a2 2 0 0 0-2 2v2h1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 1 .5-.5h2V0H2Zm2 10.5H2a.5.5 0 0 1-.5-.5V8H0v2a2 2 0 0 0 2 2h2v-1.5ZM8 12v-1.5h2a.5.5 0 0 0 .5-.5V8H12v2a2 2 0 0 1-2 2H8Zm2-12a2 2 0 0 1 2 2v2h-1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 0-.5-.5H8V0h2Z\" \/>\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>From now on, the tool will automatically collect all the mentions of the keywords of your choice.

Media monitoring is the broader practice of tracking all mentions for any business reason. In practice, most people use the terms interchangeably, and the tools that do both are the same.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"example\">What is an example of a press clipping?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A press clipping is an excerpt or a copy of an article, feature, or mention of a company, individual, or product that appears in a media outlet such as a newspaper, magazine, or online publication. An example of a press clipping could be an article in a local newspaper highlighting the success of a small business or a feature story about a new product launch in a popular industry magazine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"calculate\">How do you calculate press clippings?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>To calculate press clippings, you can use a PR clipping tool like Brand24 or engage press clipping services. These tools and services monitor various media outlets, track mentions of your company or brand, and compile them in a report or dashboard. The number of press clippings collected over a given period can serve as a measure of your public relations and media outreach efforts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"how-to\">How do you do PR clipping?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Set up a media monitoring tool with your key terms (brand name, product names, campaign slogans, executive names, and maybe a competitor or two). The tool collects mentions automatically as they appear. Filter the results, then compile it into a report.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"tools\">What are the best PR clipping tools?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Brand24, Talkwalker, and Mention are the go-to options for most teams. Google Alerts is free and fine for the basics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"include\">What does a PR clipping report include?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>At minimum: mention volume over time, a source and channel breakdown, sentiment split, and reach estimates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"ga\">Is Google Alerts enough for PR clipping?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Depends on what you&#8217;re tracking. For basic news mentions, Google Alerts does the job. For anything involving social media, forums, podcasts, or brands that get mentioned frequently, it misses too much. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"important\">Why is PR clipping important?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Because &#8220;we got great coverage&#8221; isn&#8217;t a strategy, and it&#8217;s not a report. PR clipping turns anecdotal wins into a documented, measurable record.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>PR Clipping is an essential method for public relations and marketing.
