Developing Optimum Coverage

How we are developing optimum coverage of companies on our impact measurement database.

Companies to Focus On - Top Priority List

You may have reached this article via our webinar, emailers or even from our platform directly. This article explains:

a. How to ensure you are writing about companies that need coverage (and that are valid for certification and rewards)

b. How our Topic Selector does a lot of the work for you.

Thanks to the Topic Selector, you won't need to take into consideration which companies to write about first, as all the companies you find in the Topic Selector are companies that need coverage - priority companies. But that also means you might want to write something about a company you can’t see here, this either means we do not need any further coverage of that company, or that we will come to add it at a later date.

Here is what you must do to find and book a topic and company to write about:

1. Read this short guide on how to use the Topic Selector.

2. Go to the Topics tab to browse available topics, and reserve the one that interests you most.

If you need more guidance on how to get started, you should definitely follow the 9 basic steps to get started!

Company impact CSR

How we select companies for the Topic Selector

Our mission is to measure the impact of all companies. To start with, we have decided to tackle the largest public companies first, in terms of their market share; this is why you see a lot of North American and European companies offered - this is also because these companies have the largest impact on the planet and society right now. As our coverage progresses and these companies’ impacts are fully covered, we will add new companies from all over the world.

New companies are added to the Topic Selector every week.
