NOTE: Broadcast searches will not apply to the following widgets: "Key Results", "Top Performing", "Potential Reach", “Share of Voice by Reach”, and "Top Publications by Reach".

To create a shareable report of your dashboard:

This section is designed to provide a high-level overview of the coverage for the chosen date range. It also provides context as to how this coverage compares to the previous date period, enabling you to quickly see any trends as to how your coverage is performing.

Note:

Sentiment - This metric provides an overview of the sentiment of the results. It is computed by deducting the results with negative sentiment from the results with positive sentiment, then comparing this with the total documents with a sentiment rating. Formula: ([number of positive documents] - [number of negative documents]) / ([number of documents with a sentiment rating]) x 100

This section identifies the top documents within your coverage based on the highest reach, most syndicated, and top social echo, allowing you to quickly review the content creating the most impact.

With visualizations graphically showing the media coverage's performance, you can identify any important events via a Share of Voice, Media Exposure (current date range), and comparison to last year.

This section highlights the publishers of the media coverage by the highest volume of coverage and their potential reach. Here you can quickly identify when you have been mentioned by your key publications or sources that would be of interest to you due to their size or volume of content they are publishing.

This widget shows the entities that appear most frequently as identified using algorithms. An entity is a keyword that is usually classified as a common noun or proper noun.

Finally, visualize the potential audience size that your coverage has reached via a Share of Voice and Potential Reach graph (current date range).

This provides a look at each document and boils the article's tone into either positive, negative, or neutral derived from our natural language processing algorithms.

From the Brand dashboard, you can always open the content stream to see all of the documents that are powering your dashboard.

From this content stream, you can take all the same actions you would expect from the content streams in Monitor or Explore (ex. tag, link out, change sentiment, etc.)

This Content Stream is also contextual, meaning if you click on a spike or widget from the breakdown section, the stream will open to only highlight the documents related to that specific spike/widget.

From the Brand dashboard, you can drill down into certain widgets. This drill-down view is called Event Analysis. With Event Analysis, you can compare a point in time against the prior 14 days to determine why there may have been a change in their media coverage.

Event Analysis can also be pulled from Smart Alerts Spike Detection.

Click into the widget or spike you wish to analyze further, and in the content stream, click Launch Event Analysis.

The Widgets within Dashboard are the graphs and analytics that can be added onto your page. These are customizable to help you tailor your reporting to needs.
