Learning the Hard Way

The PR Mistake That Taught Me More Than Success

Once, I sent a pitch without researching the journalist properly. Crickets. No coverage, no links, nothing. It stung. But that failure taught me to personalize, understand your audience, and make your story worth sharing. Digital PR is part trial, part strategy, all learning.

Who does? Because he sure as fuck can't seem to do that himself even with a therapist. He'd much rather not listen and tell you to shut up because "you're not my mother" or "women are irrational". Isn't Wanda a woman, Ben or are you also a Cabbage Patch Kid? Remember what he said about liars being a pet peeve of his way back when? He must really hate himself now...

That sunshine that Ben once carried was swallowed by the Black Hole of Fetch! Wow, the change in demeanor from before the ShamWow is heartbreaking:

Keep saying that people aren't noticing that there's something very wrong in Cumberland 😒...

Oops 😬.

PrimeTimePRchat -- PR & Politics

PrimeTimePRchat -- PR & Politics | Having worked in public affairs and for elected officials in a variety of roles, I love to watch #PR and Politics collide.

Having worked in public affairs and for elected officials in a variety of roles, I love to watch PR and Politics collide. It happens more and more these days and senior public relations professionals have to be prepared for when (not if) their company gets plunged into a political issue. Often unintended, the results can have employees, customers, and the general public up in arms on both sides…

PrimeTimePRchat – Media Relations

PrimeTimePRchat – Media Relations

This week’s Prime Time PR Chat was focused on media relations. It came from a previous chat topic on press releases and my ongoing obsession with our industry’s failure to address the issues around media pitching. I was lucky to have Jered Martin from OnePitch as my guest to discuss journalist relationships. OnePitch was “created by tech-savvy publicists and journalists who believe that the PR…

Love Is An Action Word. @verizon just doesn't get it. So happy I am @att, Cause I would have switched services ASAP. @peta #PRFail #BusinessEthics #ThisIsCommunity #MissedOpportunity "Maurice German was working in a neighborhood in Port Richmond, Pennsylvania last Saturday, when a resident asked him to help rescue 'Momma' the cat. The feline had been stuck on top of the pole for about 12 hours, CBS Philly reported. German obliged by using a boom lift to reach the cat as residents filmed the rescue operation and applauded the man. The cat was safely returned to its owner and was not harmed. But Verizon suspended German for 15 days, saying its vehicles and equipment were not intended to be used in the area where he operated." https://www.instagram.com/p/BvZCfKlF9Rx/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1nnkwz8h5nml4

'The influencers became the influenced' - an industry on Fyre. From PR Week

Industry Pros reaction and opinion upon PR and endorsement used within ‘FYRE Festival’

Be Transparent

The original plan was to hold Fyre Festival on an island previously owned by Colombian drug lord Pablo Escobar. However, the organisers were only permitted to use it if they agreed not to mention the Escobar connection. They did, so they were booted off the island – but they did not tell ticket holders. This is one of the reasons there was no coming back from the PR disaster of its failure. Customers can forgive a lot if they are kept in the loop, but pull the wool over their eyes and you lose all trust.
