  • Environmental Sustainability: Closing the intention to action gap, in partnership with Porter Novelli

    Living more sustainably is an aspiration for almost everyone. Myriad studies tell us consumers want to make choices that are better for people and planet. But there is a big gap between intention and action. In many cases, it comes down to “if I knew, I would” – consumers’ lack of understanding of how certain acts – such as eating less red meat or washing your clothes in cold water instead of hot – actually help the planet.

     

    In this podcast, Porter Novelli’s Sandy Skees and Lisa Unsworth share some eye-opening data from their agency’s recent report, “The Gap Between Say + Do: The Sustainability Engagement Spectrum.” They drill deep into many specific behavior types and attitudes that, once identified, can inform PR efforts. And in doing all this, they give comms pros – both as brand representatives and as citizens of the planet – invaluable inspiration and education to close those gaps and help their organizations be true leaders in the space by inspiring and educating consumers as never before.

  • PR even the Pope can appreciate: Lessons from the restaurant sector, in partnership with Coyne

    It is becoming increasingly clear to the brands in this industry – just as it has to those in many others – that comms can raise awareness and even drive bottom-line results as nothing else can. And sometimes, divine inspiration can help. Any doubts? They will be erased by this podcast.

     

    Featuring:
    -Jennifer Kamienski, EVP, Coyne PR

    -Denny Marie Post, Co-President of Nextbite, Lead Director at Vital Farms and Bluestone Lane, Board Member of Travel + Leisure, Libbey Glass and P.F. Chang’s 

    “PR allows you to punch above your weight class as a brand,” says Nextbite’s Denny Marie-Post, who is also a former CEO of Red Robin. Its unique ability to tell an experiential story better than any other discipline is a key reason.

    It also helps that comms pros in the space have proved incredibly adaptable. As Coyne’s Jennifer Kamienski explains to PRWeek’s Gideon Fidelzeid, the incredible impact the pandemic had on the sector necessitated such flexibility.

    “It’s not just about the food in the restaurant space,” she asserts. “It’s about appealing to all five senses. It’s about the overall experience.” And she proudly discusses numerous examples of how PR pros in the sector have gotten creative with the reality that people are increasingly accessing restaurant food off-premises.

    That creativity can also be so simple sometimes. Case in point, a 2015 Red Robin campaign on which Post and Kamienski collaborated. It involved a new fish sandwich, Lent, and an invitation hand delivered to the Vatican for Pope Francis. Check out this podcast to learn more about this inspired initiative.
