Metrics that make your boss sit up and listen - by Dan Hawtrey - dan@contentformula.com

In July 2007, Nielsen-Netratings – a major web analysis company – announced it was going to add “time spent” to its measurements, and pointed out that “page views” had become less relevant thanks to technology and user behaviour.

Translating Success Models intranet proves to be its own success

Translating Success Models intranet proves to be its own success
A major player in the diabetes care industry asked Content Formula to help out with an internal knowledge sharing programme. Translating Success Models (TSM) aims to identify successful sales and marketing initiatives on a country-level, document them and then replicate them in other countries across the Europe, Middle East & Africa region (EMEA). Content Formula devised and built an intranet site to help run and promote the TSM programme. Find out more about the programme, the intranet site and the results.

You can see more case studies for both intranet and internet projects on the Content Formula website.

If you want to have a no-pressure discussion about your project, we’d be happy to have a phone call or a meeting. Send an email to Dan Hawtrey with the details or simply call on +44 (0)207 381 6671.
