About this service

Summary

I provide public relations strategy services, helping clients to build and maintain a positive brand image through effective communication strategies. This includes crafting press releases, coordinating media outreach efforts, and monitoring industry trends.

Process

Client Discovery Meeting: We start with a comprehensive meeting to understand your business, goals, and target audience. We will discuss unique selling points and any existing PR efforts including product launches and timelines. During the meeting, we'll work together to outline the objectives and target audience of the PR strategy. Are you aiming to increase brand awareness, manage reputation, or launch a new product? The objectives will guide the rest of the plan.

Competitor Analysis: Following our first meeting, I will research competitors to identify gaps, strengths, and opportunities. This analysis will help me tailor your PR strategy to stand out in the market.

Key Messages and Positioning (Brand Pillars): I will craft key messages that resonate with the target audience and align with your brand. We will establish a unique positioning that sets your brand apart from competitors. After this, we will have a second meeting to confirm the desired direction.

Media Relations Plan: Following the second meeting, I will develop a plan for media outreach which will identify relevant journalists, bloggers, and influencers in the industry. This will involve crafting compelling press releases and pitch ideas that align with the established objectives.

Content Creation and Distribution: In alignment with the social media strategy, I will create a content calendar that includes blog posts, articles, and social media updates that align with key messages and is tailored to engage the target audience.

Social Media Strategy: I will outline a social media plan that complements the overall PR strategy, identifying platforms where the target audience is most active.

Measurement and Analytics: I will establish key performance indicators (KPIs) to measure the success of the PR efforts and identify tools like Google Analytics, social media insights, and media monitoring to track progress.

Budget and Resources: I will clearly outline the budget required for each aspect of the PR strategy, identifying any additional resources or support needed.

Timeline and Milestones: I will develop a realistic timeline with milestones for the implementation of the PR strategy.

We will meet a final time to review all the deliverables. Any changes needed will be made and then the final product(s) will be shared.
