Episode notes

A resurgence of Public Relations and Media Relations programs at organizations is occurring as growing costs, declining returns, vague data, and concern over brand safety is generating serious dissatisfaction with advertising.


Leaders seeking better economics and performance on investment, more control over messages and branding, and clearer KPIs are pivoting to creating, expanding or rebuilding PR and media efforts as a safe harbor in these stormy financial times.

  • the state of legacy media and advertising
  • where current ad money is going online
  • ad industry reports for the first two quarters and their indicators of an ad decline
  • digital advertising and the reasons for the frustrations and pullback
  • why pr?
  • the advantages of building a public relations & media relations program
  • Artificial Intelligence in pr and media relations
