Public Communication Campaigns Lack Coordination

Marketing manages a high volume of time-sensitive campaigns for public safety, events, and service announcements. OneDesk treats each campaign as a trackable project. Set clear milestones, assign content creation tasks, and track performance. Ensure marketing efforts directly support public information needs.

Centralized Portal for All Public Information Needs

Use a submission portal for all city departments to request communication support or event promotion. Connect your media relations email to quickly log press inquiries. Set up SLAs to prioritize urgent requests for public safety or crisis communications. Custom views let the PR team see one queue and the Digital team another. All communication is organized.

Plan Public Outreach and Service Announcement Projects

Manage a city-wide service change announcement or a community survey as a master project. Break the campaign into phases: concept, outreach, and public response. Use visual tools to manage content asset creation and distribution. Track time spent on high-impact public service announcements. Keep communication goals on track and consistent.

Automate Content Review and Public Release Approval

Automatically assign a new press release draft to the appropriate department head for fact-checking. Set up rules to send a notification to the Mayor's Office when a major announcement is ready for final approval. Send automated reminders for overdue photography asset submissions. Automation ensures fast, compliant content delivery.

Track Campaign Performance and Budget Spend

Track the non-billable time spent on specific public awareness or service promotion campaigns. Use this data to analyze the true cost of public information dissemination. Create internal quotes for cross-departmental marketing services. Maintain clear accountability for all communications budget expenditures.

AI Helps Draft Public Statements and Analyze Feedback

Use the AI assistant to summarize large amounts of citizen feedback on a new public service or policy change. It can help draft compelling social media posts or official public statements. AI can categorize incoming requests like "Media Inquiry" or "Event Promotion." This accelerates content creation.
