It wasn't all that long ago that the web forced us to reinvent ourselves. It's time again. International PR organizations have called for the death of metrics that don't make business sense, such as media impressions and advertising equivalencies. Smart business leaders have called for metrics, as they relate to real organizational growth. We've been able to add tactics, such as owned and shared media that allow us to prove we are an investment, not an expense, and that we do drive revenue. Yet, because we hate numbers, we have a difficult time drawing the correlation between our work and sales numbers. What Iliyana Stareva preaches with \u003ci\u003eInbound PR\u003c\/i\u003e will get us there. Not only is it something we define, highlight, and amplify, it allows for the all-encompassing return-on-investment. As you traverse this book, keep a notebook at your side and outline your plan.
