| Article Title :: How To Write More Powerfully For PR, Offline And Online |
| |
| Years ago when my Dad owned a group of local newspapers I spent my school and college vacations working in the editorial office. We used to amuse ourselves over our sandwiches at lunchtime looking through and trashing the endless press releases that would arrive in the mail each day, all beautifully produced with glossy photographs (this was in pre-internet days).We trashed them because all but the odd one or two were ill-considered, highly subjective, barely camouflaged advertising copy that had about as much editorial news value as last week's shopping list.Why am I telling you all this? Because despite the fact that this happened many years ago, it's still happening today (read full article) |

| Article Title :: What is "GuerrillaPR" Anyway? |
| |
| Public relations is the art, as one of my colleagues put it, of "offering people
reasons to persuade themselves." In other words, we are not Madison Avenue;
