The Everything-PR Public Relations News Brief – EPR PR Blog
Most companies these days understand the importance of public relations efforts, and how public relations can help companies reach their target audiences, build more trusting relationships with customers, and get those customers to convert. However, despite all that knowledge, there are a few especially important public relations strategies that some companies might not be familiar with or have started to overlook in the last decade. That’s not to say that these types of public relations strategies have become old-fashioned, or aren’t as useful and effective as they used to be in the past, as they can be quite effective at getting companies to reach their public relations and overall business goals.
Although it might seem old-fashioned, companies can also produce print materials as part of their public relations efforts and generate plenty of attention today too. In fact, this type of strategy may seem outdated to some, however, it’s a great way to generate a lot of attention from the public during a time when most companies tend to rely on digital media and promotional materials in digital spaces for their customers. Utilizing print materials for public relations efforts can include things like business cards, brochures, or printed materials that the company mails out such as coupons and pamphlets for its customers. When used strategically, all of those print materials can generate a lot more brand awareness and trust in a company because it provides the customers with a tangible item that will help them remember the business for a longer period of time.
Crisis public relations
Another extremely beneficial strategy in terms of public relations efforts is knowing how a company needs to go about responding to a crisis situation. This is especially true if any sort of crisis situation has a direct impact on a company or its public reputation. That’s because the public relations response that the company puts out to the world can easily demonstrate the mission statement and values of that company to the rest of the world with an added sense of urgency. Additionally, crisis public relations can also be a very valuable strategy whenever a crisis situation can affect a company secondarily or even tangentially since, depending on the context of a crisis situation, some consumer demographics might be interested in the position that other companies have taken on various current events or public issues. That’s why it’s always important for companies to know their target audiences in detail through research and analysis so that every business will be able to utilize this type of public relations strategy with a lot more success.
