The document discusses best practices for measuring and evaluating public relations, including setting goals and measuring outcomes such as changes in behavior rather than just outputs, and provides a case study of a PR campaign by Rentokil to open the world's first pest-only restaurant called Pestaurant which achieved significant media coverage and social media engagement and increased brand awareness and sales. The presentation concludes with a video case study of a successful low budget video campaign for the Migraine Trust charity.
