Public Relations Can Grow Your Brand
PR (public relations) is the work of driving coverage in traditional and digital media publications by establishing reporter relationships and growing them over time. PR also includes communications strategies, media training, crisis management, and influencer targeting and management.
How Does PR Support Marketing?
Public relations is a vehicle for amplifying digital marketing results:
- Successful PR means coverage in widely read publications that provide high-quality links to your website – the most important SEO currency.
- Positive growth in brand awareness through media coverage can fuel the success of your PPC efforts, increasing conversions, and over time, decreasing your CPC (cost-per-conversion).
- Media coverage in relevant trade publications translates into highly qualified leads that are led to your website for the solutions they need.
Why Should You Use an Agency with PR Experience?
Successful PR can help your organization rise above competitors, reach a wider customer base, and eventually dominate your market.
Poorly planned PR can harm your brand’s reputation, burn bridges with key influencers, and result in higher customer attrition.
