PR-Back to the Basics (and the Basics aren’t Easy)

April 12, 2012 By

In the age of social media and the blending of traditional and new media, is it time to get back to the basics? Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn. Blogs, E-zines, Apps; the ways we deliver messages and engage in conversations are changing daily – or minute by minute in some cases. However, the basics are the same: listen, plan, implement, evaluate.

This session will discuss how to build a solid foundation for communicating in this new age of media and as we all know, it is not as easy as we think. The conversation will include how to listen to your audience, including new online listening methods, how to plan and deliver targeted messages and ultimately how to build relationships that can result in a positive impact on your organization’s bottom line.
