The Interview: The Four CORE PR Tips
Q: How do you effectively communicate with your targeted audience?
A: The basis of all public relations is effective communication. To communicate effectively, clearly define your organization's overall goals and mission. This message should translate not only on your business website, but on social media platforms, press releases, pitches, and anywhere else your message is shared.
Q: Does customer satisfaction affect PR efforts?
A: Yes. Word of mouth can still make or break you. Outstanding customer service goes a long way. If customers are not happy with your business or products, all of your PR efforts could become crisis control.
Q: How do you identify your target audience and reach them?
A: To reach your target audience effectively, be aware of who makes up their demographic — what they are interested in and where they receive their news. Begin by analyzing metrics, KPIs, and your overall organization's goals. Compare who you would like your product or service to reach with who it's actually reaching, and reevaluate if your efforts are working.
Q: Why do I need PR?
A: PR expands your reach, which can be difficult on your own. We recommend hiring a well-trained PR agency or professional. The first step could be reaching out to your local media, next any niche publications, and lastly popular publications that identify with your business. Your goal should be to utilize the full marketing pie.
The Rebellious Team defines these answers as the four CORE PR tips: clear communication, outstanding customer service, reaching your targeted audience, and expanding your business.
