FAQs: Navigating Your PR Pathway

How do we get started? First we get to know you and your brand. We want to understand your needs and wants, your challenges and opportunities. From there we conduct our own research and then develop a comprehensive strategy to take your brand to the next level.

How do we tailor PR strategies for FMCG brands?

We work with you to identify what you need and then create an effective PR strategy that we know will work to get people talking about your brand.

Why invest in PR?

In a word, Trust. Nothing will build trust in a brand like third party endorsement – weather that’s through peer-to-peer word of mouth recommendations, editorial in the media, or genuine influencer endorsement, no other form of marketing will build trust
the way PR will, so we consider it a critical part of the marketing mix.

How are PR and social media interlinked?

We take an earned media approach to social media where we work to build consumer trust in the same way we would convince a journalist to write about a brand using integrity, fact, reasoning and relevance. Social media is a critical part of the stakeholder and comms landscape and in our opinion the two are completely intertwined.

Does PR offer good bang for buck?

We have done a lot of integrated campaign analysis over the years and every single time PR comes out on top. In the words of Bill Gates “If I was down to my last dollar, I’d spend it on public relations.”

How does PR work?

Public relations is a lot more involved than many marketers realise. It’s kind of like getting a tattoo on your face, you have to be committed. It’s a marathon, not a sprint, but when PR is integrated into your business magic happens – it forces you to innovate and reflect, and if you can convince a journalist of your pitch, then it’s a great acid test for convincing a customer. The most powerful companies in the world all have one thing in common, a serious commitment to PR because they know the importance of earning trust.

What’s involved in a PR campaign?

It begins with a deep dive and a comprehensive strategy where we take into consideration a million factors across the brand and media landscape. There’s often media training of key spokespeople, content creation, key messaging, goals, target audiences, product send outs and various phases to build a wall of noise. We drive the entire process so that it’s very straight forward for our clients, we will even help you to figure out your elevator pitch and crystallise your brand as part of the process.
