You can spend time researching topics independently, or collaborate with your wider PR team in a brainstorming session. Whatever way you choose to ideate, we’ve created an idea validation process to help you determine whether your PR idea is worth developing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Ch2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"what-is-idea-validation\">\u003Cstrong>What is idea validation? \u003C\u002Fstrong>\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Idea validation is the process of gathering data to determine whether an idea, in this case, a \u003Ca rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"\u002Fpr-social\u002Fdigital-pr\u002F\">digital PR\u003C\u002Fa> campaign, is worth producing. Although it’s impossible to know for certain whether a campaign is going to be a huge success, an idea should always be validated before investing time and resources into developing it to avoid any obstacles or delays. \u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>During the initial stages of ideation, it’s common to have a shared document filled with notes, thoughts and rough ideas. However, only a small amount of those ideas will be worth executing into a fully-fledged campaign.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Similarly, it can also be easy to fall in love with an idea or hang onto the want of producing a campaign that in hindsight, may not have outreach potential. By introducing idea validation it exposes the campaign to realistic scrutiny and assesses its chances of succeeding by considering: competitor research, relevancy and the methodology.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Ch2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"how-to-validate-your-campaigns-ideas\">\u003Cstrong>How to validate your campaigns ideas\u003C\u002Fstrong>\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\n\n\u003Ch3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"1-research-your-topic\">1. \u003Cstrong>Research your topic\u003C\u002Fstrong>\u003C\u002Fh3>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>It’s unlikely that a campaign idea has never been explored or written about before, but that doesn’t mean that it doesn’t have value. A quick and easy way to find out is by searching for relevant keywords on Google. This way you can find out if your idea has been covered extensively, and when.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>If the idea has been covered a lot, then can you top it? What new piece of data has since been released that you can add to your idea to improve it? This could be government data, Freedom of Information (FOI) requests or expert commentary. Find a way to spin that same story into a bigger and better news piece.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>You can also use similarly published campaign ideas to your advantage. Using a tool such as \u003Ca rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fahrefs.com\u002F\">Ahrefs\u003C\u002Fa>, you can research whether the previous campaign was successful, how many backlinks it gained and from which domains.

Often, you can convince yourself it will work simply because you want it to. Instead, ask your team or experts on the topic within your company for their honest opinion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Do they find it interesting?

If your campaign idea falls within this remit, then research when the last report was published and aim to produce your campaign the same week the report is updated. You may find that it could be worth waiting an extra month and producing this campaign later on down the line.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Ch3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"4-write-three-headlines\">4. \u003Cstrong>Write three headlines\u003C\u002Fstrong>\u003C\u002Fh3>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>A great way to validate your ideas is by identifying at least three headlines and angles, as well as publications that would be interested in covering your campaign. At Impression, we use an in-house ‘campaign map’ that helps us to structure and break down all possible angles for a campaign.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>If you’re struggling to think of how your campaign idea can be stretched across verticals, then perhaps it’s better kept as a reactive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Ch3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"5-can-you-make-it-regional\">\u003Cstrong>5.

Not all websites can be easily scraped, whilst others are black-listed. Speak to the relevant data analyst in your team if you’re planning on seeking support for producing the campaign.
