Media Strategies' Key Services:

Communications Needs Assessments

Employee and customer surveys and focus groups uncover and identify key communications needs, tactical plans and media appropriate to meet or exceed business objectives. Our interpretation of findings provides the knowledge base on which to build an effective and credible media communications organizational structure.

Process and Best Practices Assessments

Our comprehensive review and analysis of the media production process benchmarked against industry best practices leads to actionable recommendations to speed the delivery of media, lower costs, reduce blockages, reinforce core competencies and minimize redundancies. We bring the perspective of informed outsiders to process improvement.

 

Benchmarking Studies and Surveys

Measuring the performance of communications media and the best in class organizations that produce that media has become de rigueur in developing quality improvement programs and as a precursor to reengineering. Through benchmarking studies and surveys involving nearly 50 organizations and our knowledge of the creative process from the inside out, (an expertise available to few management consulting firms), our studies are tightly constructed and highly cost effective.
