Business Marketing and PR Scorecard
Why Use a Business Communications Scorecard?
Assess Strengths and Opportunities for Growth
Gain a clear understanding of what your business excels at and identify areas where there is potential for enhancement.
Establish Strategic Objectives
With a detailed view of your current communication effectiveness, you can set precise and actionable goals aimed at driving improvement.
Optimize Resource Allocation
By understanding your communication strengths and gaps, you can direct your resources—whether time, budget, or personnel—where they will yield the greatest benefits.
Enhance Stakeholder Support
A business communications scorecard offers a concise summary of your communication performance. Use it to gather concrete data, which can support your case for resource investment and strategy adjustments with stakeholders, including executives and board members.
Components of the Business Communications Scorecard
Our detailed scorecard evaluates ten essential areas:
- Strategic Focus & Goals
- Company Brand Identity
- Internal Communication Alignment
- Marketing Materials (Print and Digital)
- Company Website
- Social Media Presence
- Community Engagement
- Media and Public Relations
- Events and Outreach
- Reputation Management
Each category is assessed on a scale of 0 to 5, providing a comprehensive yet straightforward evaluation of your communication efforts. This scorecard serves as a tool to quickly gauge performance, not a full audit.
Analyzing Your Results
After completing the scorecard, total your score out of 50 points. This score offers valuable insights into your communication strategy but serves as a starting point for further development. For instance, a lower score in “Community Engagement” indicates a need to enhance local outreach or community involvement.
Next Steps
- Share the findings with your management team or Board
- Prioritize areas for improvement based on your score
- Allocate resources to address critical needs
- Plan for a follow-up review in 6-12 months
