Three deadly misconceptions about PR:
π« PR is about which reporters you know
πππ π©π§πͺπ©π: Everyone has access to the same lists of reporters.
π« PR needs a relentless bulldog who'll plow reporters' inboxes till he gets you published
πππ π©π§πͺπ©π: There are 7 PR people for each reporter. Volume approach is doomed.
π« All you need is a creative storyteller to get you coverage
πππ π©π§πͺπ©π: PR isnβt magic. It canβt fix a weak brand.
And it canβt make reporters write about your company if the storyβs weak.
But a PR can take a great story and help:
βοΈ Position your brand as a natural choice to your clients
βοΈ Shorten sales cycles
βοΈ Attract great talent
...and even build a momentum that gets you acquired.
