Don't forget about PR

Don't forget about PR - public relations (not press release).

Public relations is a valuable way to increase brand visibility. In a recent episode of Building a Story Brand, Donald Miller included the press release as one of the key pieces of a campaign. While I agree with him, I believe he was thinking too small. He should have said don't forget public relations. A press release is only part of the public relations effort.

My guest this week, Julie Livingston of Want Leverage Communications, shares how public relations can elevate the presence of a brand but it is not enough to just send out a press release. The way we consume media has grown and evolved over the last 20 years, which means public relations needed to evolve as well.
