PR Strategy Setting – Inevitable Nightmare
Internal factors (80%)Business and brand strategy (everything driven by brand?, facts/products/“HW“ or feelings/ emotions/people? Customer centricity?…)Corporate cultureManagement and their willingness/ability to take active part in PRResourcesCoop with Marcom, Sponsoring, CSR, CS and others, their responsibilities
External factors (20%)Image of the Co., competitors, the branchCurrent position in the media – keep, improve, change completely?Competitors’ activitiesOverall mood in the societyMedia environment
Challenges – Internal
InternalFar too great expectationsNo or vague briefsLow understanding of PR basics (long-term activity, consistency necessary, PR is not advertising, etc.)Lack of resources (money, time, ideas….)Internal disputes (Marcom vs. PR, Sales vs. Marketing, CEO against others)….
Challenges – External
Media marketFrequent changes – media, journalists (as soon as you establish relations, the journalist leaves…)Journalists too busy to go into the depth of the topic or check the dataInternet media – lack of rules; low numbers? Let’s use a negative headline!; on-line discussiongroupsNegativity wins
Social mediaThey don’t like us?!? Low level of controlPrevailing corporate strategy – “We’ll see“Who’s responsible?Desirable response time much shorter

Future PR
Higher proportion of WOM and social media = less control, more emotions
We have to:“Learn“ social media – closer cooperation of all dpts involved in communication (Marcom, Customer Care…) inevitable
Keep the “old-fashioned“ standards (fair, timely, open communication, etc.) + be faster
Get used to direct, continuous, emotional interaction with customers
…ready?
Any questions?
