CIPR speeds up PR publishing with Presspage

Faster publishing, better targeting, and more control for CIPR’s PR team.
CIPR | case study image

The Chartered Institute of Public Relations (CIPR) is the UK’s leading PR association, supporting thousands of members with industry updates and best practices. With lots to share and high expectations from their audience, they needed a smarter way to manage content and prove impact.

Presspage made it happen. Now, they publish in seconds, hit the right channels, and use real-time data to shape every story.

Presspage was easy to use from the start. With support from our dedicated Customer Success Manager, we quickly got the most out of all the features. It’s also easy to train others to use it.

BEFORE Presspage

Multiple platforms and slow processes

  • Difficult to publish rich media content.

  • No easy way to measure what’s working.

  • Harder to keep internal handovers smooth.

With Presspage, publishing rich media is simple. The team uses the newsroom to share stories directly across synced social channels and track performance in real time.

  • Easy to embed rich media
  • Content shared from one place
  • Stories adapted for different platforms

 

“Whenever there is a chance to publish a video, we try to do that. I really like the fact that it is easy to embed videos from YouTube or Vimeo, or a Podcast from Soundcloud directly in the release. This is great and it enables us to enrich the releases.”

Data that actually helps

Presspage analytics give CIPR the insight they need to shape content and show results.

CIPR uses analytics to see what’s working, where audiences are coming from, and how to tweak messages for better engagement. The insights guide everything — from story topics to distribution tactics.

 

  • Tracks visitor numbers and sources.
  • Helps tailor messaging to specific groups.
  • Brings stakeholders directly to the newsroom.

 

“We target different groups with different languages and content all the time. When we send out emails, we personalize the message to the group we are sending it to, to target them in the best way. But we also use the information gathered via the statistics in the platform to adapt our message or use different distribution channels.”

Easy for the whole team

The platform is intuitive, so anyone on the team can step in and publish when needed.

No one has to be a tech expert to get content out the door. Presspage makes it easy for colleagues to pick up publishing quickly, even if it's not part of their usual role.

  • Fast onboarding for new users
  • Team can publish without delays
  • No disruption during handovers

 

“It is easy to train other people to use it. When I go on a holiday, I just make sure my colleagues are able to get on the platform and do the basics. They don’t need to know everything and the platform is intuitive enough for them to easily do what they need to do.”

  • Unique visits to the newsroom are up
  • Team adapts content based on real-time insights
  • Distribution is faster and more targeted
  • No bottlenecks when team members are away

We had set the expectation for where people could find information, and where we would be updating it. It was a much, much smoother process from our perspective. We have established ourselves, not only during emergencies, but just in general, as the source of [campus] information, and that we also provide accurate information as quickly as possible.
