The conversation delves into the importance of strategic intent behind media engagement, the role of verification in building trust, and the complementary relationship between personal branding and media coverage
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Before engaging with media, it's crucial to define the purpose of the PR efforts. Understanding what you want to achieve and who you want to reach can significantly enhance the effectiveness of media coverage.
The landscape of media has evolved with technology, allowing businesses of all sizes to access PR opportunities. Utilising media tech can streamline the process of matching stories with the right publishers, making PR more accessible.
Leveraging media coverage can enhance a business's authority and credibility. When reputable publications endorse a brand, it adds a layer of trust that can influence potential customers' decisions.
Consistency in media engagement and content creation is essential. Building a brand's presence takes time, and results may not be immediate. It's important to trust the process and remain committed to long-term strategies.
BEST MOMENTS
"If you use technology in the right way, you can make PR accessible to businesses of every size."
"The point of the media is in the verification... That's why it's such a letdown when... an esteemed organisation like the BBC edits an interview."
"You need to be doing multiple things. You need to be leveraging the sources that align with what your goals are."
"The biggest mistake is doing it without any of those things, not knowing why you're engaging with the media."
