So, What is PR?
- PR = Public Relations. It forms part of your overall marketing and communications mix (consisting of paid ads, JVs, WOM – word of mouth, SEO, direct mail)
- It can include:
- Product placement, profile pieces, crisis comms
- Invitations to comment on news and media channels: TV/Radio /online/offline/podcasts
- Thought leadership through by-lined articles
- Speaking gigs: Conferences, trade shows, TED, TEDx, events
- Competitions, giveaways, journalist/influencer gifting
- Column (Agony Aunt / Ask the Expert)
- Whistle blowing / investigative journalism
- Breaking news local + national
- PR is broadly broken down into two areas:
- Proactive: ‘Outreach’ ie cold email pitches: breaking news, launches, news stories, trends
- Reactive: Responding to a ‘call out’ from a journalist, news jacking stories/ events for commentary
Why is PR important for business owners?
PR helps to:
- Build your reputation and credibility
