PR is more relevant now for small business than ever before.
Around 70% of the media content you see, hear or read comes from public and media relations material.
In this episode of Social Media for Small Business Digital Marketer we speak to Sharon Zeev Poole, the founder of Agent99 Public Relations. Agent99 is a well-established agency and has worked with high-profile brands like Warner Brothers. As guest speaker on our podcast this week, Sharon says social media is an important and cost-effective tool in the public relations toolkit.
Sharon says that all facets of the marketing team, from public relations to advertising agencies, should work together to provide a consistent brand message across all platforms.
Sharon also says PR professionals will always have an advantage over internal public relations strategies. This is because agencies already know how to hook and entertain media organisations.

- How to do PR on a tight budget
