“You can’t manage what you don’t
measure.”
You can’t measure everything in $

“Our ROI is more lives saved and less property and fewer homes destroyed or damaged.”
Eugene Luke, Emergency Management Specialist, FEMA
"Most people I've known in the private sector are just much too accustomed to linear processes where they're clear decision makers and they make a decision and things more or less then happen. In government, the decisions you make very often are much less direct in their effect."
Robert RubinFormer U.S. Secretary of Treasury

Where to Start? Easy
Effectiveness:What is our total
reach?
Engagement:What is the value of
each connection we’re making?
Value Created
Efficiency:What was the total cost of the communication?
Net Value

What is that we’re trying to do here?
Improve public health Provide for secure
retirement
More people get flu shots
More people apply for benefits online
Awareness of benefits of flu shots, clinic locations, and free shot programs
Awareness of benefit application form online

The Impact of Better Communication Translates to Real Value for Agency & Public
Better health More flu shots More exercise Less smoking Better screening
More efficient and consistent compliance with regulations
Lower administrative costs Higher revenue Lower compliance costs
for business / public
Lower costs Fewer inbound calls Lower enforcement costs Citizen involvement in
building mobile apps
Better mission results Catch criminals Get more grant
applications so funds go to higher quality applicants
Improve recruitment And more…7
Upstream MetricsEasy to measure, but only the communications and Web team care… clicks,
opens, subscribers, followers, friends, visits, etc.
Downstream MetricsThese really matter, but they are super hard to measure.
![Page 8: Measuring and Capturing Value of Government Communication](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081519/5558a56ed8b42a2a738b5087/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Connecting Upstream to Downstream… Start with Logic
More Rain Upstream…
Means Deeper Water Downstream

Mission (im)Possible in Public Sector
10
• Use targeted surveys online: – “Did you take a flu shot after visiting our website?”
– “Did your experience on our website impact your decision to get a flu shot?”
• Use them offline:
“What sources of information caused you to get a flu shot?”
• Find other points of correlation. Example: “Do you trust the information you see on Healthagency.gov?”
• Use logic!
Why?
Judge outreach in real-time based on upstream metrics that can be tracked because you know they impact downstream metrics that drive mission value.

Using Communication and Engagement to Solve Snowpocalype
GovDelivery Event
February 3, 2011
![Page 16: Measuring and Capturing Value of Government Communication](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081519/5558a56ed8b42a2a738b5087/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Problem:
Why
?
Millions of government employees working on similar issues but no safe place to connect and share best practices.
Solution: Online community. Hub to connect disparate conversations/events.
New technology leveraged to collaborate.
![Page 17: Measuring and Capturing Value of Government Communication](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081519/5558a56ed8b42a2a738b5087/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
2 Questions I Think About• How to Grow GovLoop – Reach & Engage
– Reach More People (More Active Members)– Increase Engagement (More Activity)– Solve more problems every day
![Page 18: Measuring and Capturing Value of Government Communication](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081519/5558a56ed8b42a2a738b5087/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
My Last Year of Research
Studied How Others Increased Audience & Engagement
• For-profit communities (Dogster, ITToolbox, Sermo, change.org)• For-profit vendors (GroupOn, Hubspot, Priceline,)• Non-profit campaigns (Causes, Charity: Water, NeighborsForNeighbors)• Political sector (Presidential and local elections)
![Page 19: Measuring and Capturing Value of Government Communication](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081519/5558a56ed8b42a2a738b5087/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
What I’ve Learned
• It’s REALLY REALLY Hard• There’s a talent/skill• There’s a methodology and rigor• Difference between Doing it and Doing it Well• Lots of optimization opportunities • Hard to be consistent
Great communication key to driving real results for organizations
![Page 20: Measuring and Capturing Value of Government Communication](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081519/5558a56ed8b42a2a738b5087/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
THE ENGAGEMENT FORMULA
FIND OUT + SIGN-UP + LEARN + ACT
= RESULTS(get flu shot, fill out census, apply for job)
Results met now = bigger base = more results later
![Page 21: Measuring and Capturing Value of Government Communication](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081519/5558a56ed8b42a2a738b5087/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Engagement Formula Example
Big Cat Rescue – Animal Rescue in Tampa, FL• Get lots of people aware• Get them to Subscribe• Provide compelling content• Ask to Give $ or Visit Park• 23k fans, 100+ Likes per post
= RESULTS – funding/volunteers/rescues
![Page 22: Measuring and Capturing Value of Government Communication](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081519/5558a56ed8b42a2a738b5087/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
