How to tackle the challenges of growing brand awareness and building strategies for value-generated outcomes with PR.
Public Relations is enjoying a resurgence as a primary communications tool in the ever-changing tech and media landscape. Whether you are addressing customers, the media, employees, the community, investors, or the government, you cannot afford to leave PR out of your strategy.
Crafting and communicating the right message to the right people in a relevant way at the right time, is now more important than ever before. Yet most experts and entrepreneurs frequently dismiss PR as too expensive. But PR is a valuable and vital part of the communications mix. Those who understand this, hire PR agencies to use the power of public relations to build relationships with the press and get the word out about their business. In return, they reap the rewards of a huge return on their investment (ROI).
Too often, PR is minimized to just growing awareness but public relations is much more than that. Yes, PR is a quick way to build legitimacy as a brand by cultivating relationships with the media, seeding opportunities, and managing messaging and brand credibility. However, the increased authority, brand awareness, visibility, and customer sentiment generated can be leveraged as a robust lead generation pipeline over the long term.
