Setting up automated alerts supports you and your team to be informed of the brand-specific news and industry conversations.
Today, having automated alerts in place can be a life savior and keep you informed of important events at all times. The Wizikey dashboard lets you set up automated alerts to monitor what’s going on in your industry. This will support you and your team to be informed of the brand-specific news, articles on your competition, and industry conversations in general.
The daily alerts system of Wizikey ensures news lands in your inbox at a set time in the morning and helps you to know about the journalist writing in your relevant sectors.

Staying on track: Every morning you will see articles on your brand, peers, and leadership.
