Does your CEO or leadership want a guaranteed media placement? Where…

…approved key messages are verbatim?
…it is a billboard void of human touch, insight?
…the headline & content can be controlled?
…you dictate the timing?

That’s an ad.
That’s an advertisement.
That’s the post.

It has been a challenging & draining past few weeks… just me? The…

Post-holiday swirl.
New kid schedules & activities.
Work ramping.
LA fire devastation.
Arctic temps (-7 in Chicago).🥶
Hostages released.🎗️
TikTok whiplash.
New President; flurry of associated impacts, emotions & nonstop news cycles.

So many darn prayers for LA…
a modern day catastrophe. Homes. Communities. Memories. Gone in an instant…

And the babies + kids who don’t understand where their blanket, teddy from grandma went…

Oh my heart.💔

“PR & Communications is easy.”
“We don’t need PR right now.”
“We will just have someone more junior do it.”

🤯🤯🤯

This function and ensuing activities are more critical than ever. It is my hope that companies maintain discerning, experienced counselor/s (no, not just legal).

An important read for those in #PR and #Comms by @axios.com CEO Jim VandeHei

The media industry has drastically changed. Trust in journalism has plummeted. Legacy media outlets continued to undermine their credibility.

BUT (good) journalism matters.🗞️📰

Why reporting matters
I want to take you inside a world with no trust in journalism.

Remarkable indeed… 🦋📈
This is really getting quite remarkable

• BlueSky user numbers have doubled in the past week and now total 3.5 million across US & UK 🚀

• Number of people deleting their X/Twitter account remains way up

And the next chart is particularly notable...

There are poor actors in every industry but be wary of #PR + #Comms Pros who tout amazing media relationships as, ultimately…

The story MATTERS.

Does it have:

➡️ Feel Good Element
➡️ Impact (affects more vs. few)
➡️ Notoriety
➡️ Originality
➡️ Strong Visual Assets
➡️ Timeliness (why now?)
➡️ Tension

Kind reminders:

❌ “Can you just PR this?”
❌ “We need a PR.”
❌ “Can you write a PR?” (PR does not = press release)

✅ PR = Public Relations.
✅ PR is a critical function to drive brand trust, protect & bolster reputation.
✅ “We need PR as part of an integrated marketing mix to drive awareness.”
