Structure for Communication and Marketing

The Corporate Newsroom Model

Communication, Marketing and Sales face dramatic changes. People’s media consumption is increasing, and the number of channels is growing drastically. Today, anyone can become an influential communicator. People comment, upload a video or manage their appointments via smartphone. Companies must cope with changing media demands. They should establish a Corporate Newsroom.

The basic idea of the Corporate Newsroom Model is to separate topics and channels.The model consists of four levels: Strategy Team, Managing Editors, Topic Management and Media Management. Additional roles are also conceivable, for example for Creative Management or Data analysis.

Strategy Team

The strategy team is at the head of the Corporate Newsroom. The team members perform strategic communication work through planning, control and monitoring. The members set impulses in terms of content for the managing editor and the topic desks. The team has the right to issue directives and to make final decisions on all content issues. The strategy team is comparable to the editor-in-chief in journalistic Newsrooms. Similar to the editor-in-chief, the strategy team also exercises personnel and subject responsibility in the Corporate Newsroom..

Managing Editors

The managing editors are the link between topic desks and media desks. The position is of central importance and should therefore be filled by at least two people. They can work deferred and replace the other in case of vacation and illness. The managing editors are informed about all topics and communication channels. They carry out operative communication work by deciding on the weighting of individual topics. They issue work orders to the topic and media desks. The managing editors also chair the editorial conferences. They receive proposals from the topic and media desks and have the final decision-making power. This is modelled by the role of the managing editor in journalism who coordinates the internal processes. In the Corporate Newsroom, this position has a high potential for conflict. Therefore, the managing editors must be experienced professionals. These experts must think journalisticallyand act decisively while keeping an overview of the topics and media. Detailed knowledge of the topics and media, on the other hand, is not absolutely necessary. This is the responsibility of the topic and media managers.

Topic Management

One or more topic managers sit at a topic desk. They are comparable to reporters in journalism. The employees at the topic desks are the link to the specialist departments of the company. In this way, they gain knowledge of many topics and thus embody professional competence in terms of content. The topic desk regularly proposes topics to the managing editors. It researches, produces and edits content. The topic managers also ensure the necessary coordination with the specialist departments. Whenever the topic desk delivers the texts, images or original sounds to a media desk, it informs the managing editors. The head of the topic desk takes part in the editorial conferences.The topic desks should represent the company’s content strategy. They are geared towards the business areas of the company. The tasks of the topic desks can be adjusted in the medium term. In addition, some topics and projects cannot be clearly defined. Therefore, it makes sense to set up a project desk for such cases. The size of a topic desk varies, depending on the workload. The topic managers are responsible for their topics. They propose new topics to the managing editors and enter the information into the topic planning tool. Topic managers deliver the finished texts to the media desks and inform the managing editors about them. .

Media Management

The media desks represent the media channels of the company. They each consist of one or more media managers. The media manager is at the top of the media desk. They have the right to propose topics to the managing editors they think a topic is suitable for a medium. The media manager maintains close contact with the managing editors and participates in the editorial conferences. The role of the media manager is like that of an editor in journalism (Moss 1998). Editors are the typical page-makers or those responsible for the online site. They determine which topic is presented in their medium and how relevant it is. They edit and follow the news flow of the agencies. The editors work like lawyers for the reader, user or viewer. Thus, they represent the counterweight to the topic manager and thereby guarantee a four-eye-principle.In the Corporate Newsroom, media managers listen to the market by following discussions on social media or in journalism. The media desks are organised according to the channels the company wants to use and the target groups they want to address. Possible media desks are print, online, social media, audio or video. The media managers control the various channels because they have the competence to do so. The size of the media desks depends on the workload. The media managers have the right to propose topics for their media to the managing editors. They can adapt and publish existing material produced by the topic managers themselves for their respective media.

5. Analysis tools and advertisingWe use software on our website to evaluate the behaviour of website visitors, known as web analytics or web analysis for short. This involves collecting data that is stored, managed and processed by the respective analytics tool provider (also known as a tracking tool). The data is used to create analyses of user behaviour on our website and made available to us as the website operator. In addition, most tools offer various test options. For example, we can test which offers or content are best received by our visitors. To do this, we show you two different offers for a limited period of time. After the test (known as an A/B test), we know which product or content our website visitors find more interesting. For such test procedures, as well as for other analytics procedures, user profiles can also be created and the data stored in cookies.With our website, we have a clear goal in mind: we want to deliver the best web offering on the market for our industry. In order to achieve this goal, we want to offer the best and most interesting services on the one hand and ensure that you feel completely at ease on our website on the other. With the help of web analysis tools, we can take a closer look at the behaviour of our website visitors and then improve our website accordingly for you and for us. For example, we can recognise the average age of our visitors, where they come from, when our website is visited the most or which content or products are particularly popular. All this information helps us to optimise the website and thus adapt it to your needs, interests and wishes.Exactly which data is stored depends, of course, on the analysis tools used. But as a rule, for example, the content you view on our website, which buttons or links you click on, when you call up a page, which browser you use, which device (PC, tablet, smartphone, etc.) you use to visit the website or which computer system you use is stored. If you have agreed that location data may also be collected, this may also be processed by the web analysis tool provider.Your IP address is also stored. According to the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), IP addresses are personal data. However, your IP address is usually stored pseudonymised (i.e. in an unrecognisable and shortened form). For the purposes of testing, web analysis and web optimisation, no direct data such as your name, age, address or email address is stored. All this data, if collected, is stored in pseudonymised form. This means that you cannot be identified as a person. How long the respective data is stored always depends on the provider. Some cookies only store data for a few minutes or until you leave the website, while other cookies can store data for several years.We will inform you about the duration of data processing below if we have further information on this. In general, we only process personal data for as long as is absolutely necessary for the provision of our services and products. If required by law, for example in the case of accounting, this storage period may be exceeded.The use of web analytics requires your consent, which we have obtained with our cookie pop-up. According to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR (consent), this consent constitutes the legal basis for the processing of personal data, as may occur when it is collected by web analytics tools. In addition to consent, we have a legitimate interest in analysing the behaviour of website visitors in order to improve our website technically and economically. With the help of web analytics, we recognise errors on the website, can identify attacks and improve efficiency. The legal basis for this is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR (legitimate interests). Nevertheless, we only use the tools if you have given your consent.
Since web analytics tools use cookies, we recommend that you also read our general privacy policy on cookies. To find out exactly which of your data is stored and processed, you should read the privacy policies of the respective tools. Information on specific web analytics tools, if available, can be found in the following sections.Google Analytics privacy policyWe use the analysis tracking tool Google Analytics (GA) of the American company Google Inc. on our website. For the European area, the company Google Ireland Limited (Gordon House, Barrow Street Dublin 4, Ireland) is responsible for all Google services. Google Analytics collects data about your actions on our website. For example, when you click on a link, this action is stored in a cookie and sent to Google Analytics. The reports we receive from Google Analytics enable us to better customise our website and our service to your wishes. In the following, we will go into more detail about the tracking tool and inform you in particular about what data is stored and how you can prevent this.
Google Analytics is a tracking tool used to analyse traffic on our website. For Google Analytics to work, a tracking code is integrated into the code of our website. When you visit our website, this code records various actions that you perform on our website. As soon as you leave our website, this data is sent to the Google Analytics servers and stored there.Google processes the data and we receive reports on your user behaviour. These may include the following reports:
- Target group reports: We use target group reports to get to know our users better and know more precisely who is interested in our service.
- Display reports: Display reports make it easier for us to analyse and improve our online advertising.
- Acquisition reports: Acquisition reports provide us with helpful information on how we can get more people interested in our service.
- Behavioural reports: This tells us how you interact with our website. We can see which path you take on our site and which links you click on.
- Conversion reports: Conversion is a process in which you perform a desired action as a result of a marketing message. For example, when you convert from a mere website visitor to a buyer or newsletter subscriber. With the help of these reports, we learn more about how our marketing measures are received by you. This is how we want to increase our conversion rate.
- Real-time reports: Here we always know immediately what is happening on our website. For example, we can see how many users are currently reading this text.
Why do we use Google Analytics on our website?
Our goal with this website is clear: we want to offer you the best possible service.The statistics and data from Google Analytics help us to achieve this goal.The statistically analysed data gives us a clear picture of the strengths and weaknesses of our website. On the one hand, we can optimise our site so that it can be found more easily by interested people on Google. On the other hand, the data helps us to better understand you as a visitor. We therefore know exactly what we need to improve on our website in order to offer you the best possible service.The data also helps us to carry out our advertising and marketing measures more individually and cost-effectively. After all, it only makes sense to show our products and services to people who are interested in them.
What data is stored by Google Analytics?
Google Analytics uses a tracking code to create a random, unique ID that is linked to your browser cookie.This is how Google Analytics recognises you as a new user. The next time you visit our site, you will be recognised as a ‘returning’ user.All collected data is stored together with this user ID.
This is what makes it possible to analyse pseudonymous user profiles in the first place.In order to be able to analyse our website with Google Analytics, a property ID must be inserted into the tracking code.The data is then saved in the corresponding property. The Google Analytics 4 property is standard for every newly created property.Alternatively, you can also create the Universal Analytics property.Depending on the property used, data is stored for different lengths of time.
Your interactions on our website are measured using identifiers such as cookies and app instance IDs.Interactions are all types of actions that you perform on our website.If you also use other Google systems (such as a Google account), data generated via Google Analytics may be linked to third-party cookies. Google does not pass on any Google Analytics data unless we as the website operator authorise this. Exceptions may be made if required by law.6. Plug-ins and ToolsYouTube with expanded data protection integrationOur website embeds videos of the website YouTube. The website operator is Google Ireland Limited (“Google”), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.We use YouTube in the expanded data protection mode. According to YouTube, this mode ensures that YouTube does not store any information about visitors to this website before they watch the video. Nevertheless, this does not necessarily mean that the sharing of data with YouTube partners can be ruled out as a result of the expanded data protection mode. For instance, regardless of whether you are watching a video, YouTube will always establish a connection with the Google DoubleClick network.As soon as you start to play a YouTube video on this website, a connection to YouTube’s servers will be established. As a result, the YouTube server will be notified, which of our pages you have visited. If you are logged into your YouTube account while you visit our site, you enable YouTube to directly allocate your browsing patterns to your personal profile. You have the option to prevent this by logging out of your YouTube account.Furthermore, after you have started to play a video, YouTube will be able to place various cookies on your device. With the assistance of these cookies, YouTube will be able to obtain information about our website’s visitors. Among other things, this information will be used to generate video statistics with the aim of improving the user friendliness of the site and to prevent attempts to commit fraud. These cookies will stay on your device until you delete them.Under certain circumstances, additional data processing transactions may be triggered after you have started to play a YouTube video, which are beyond our control.The use of YouTube is based on our interest in presenting our online content in an appealing manner. Pursuant to Art. 6 Sect. 1 lit. f GDPR, this is a legitimate interest. If a corresponding agreement has been requested, the processing takes place exclusively on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR; the agreement can be revoked at any time.For more information on how YouTube handles user data, please consult the YouTube Data Privacy Policy under: https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=en.
