Learn to ignore the old rules of PR!
The Web has transformed the Rules! Habib Wahid’s profile on Facebook reads “engaged”! If Anisul Haque on twitter drops a line how good he felt to
be part of the Women’s Day celebration at BRAC Bank The Japan Nuclear Blast SMS that sent us alert for ‘acid
rain’ Unleashing the power of web and FM and mobile
Doesn’t matter if you are small and single – the web is a terrific place which can pick up almost anything
FM Channels are redefining opinions Mobile contents can reach into your most guarded area

What we need to remember
Marketing is more than advertising
PR is for more than just a mainstream media audience
You are what you publish – and wherever it is published
People want something really new, read-worthy
People want authenticity, not spin
Your customers are not fools – they very well know the true story when you are faking it
People want participation, not propaganda

Yellow Journalism
Case of Fly Ash and Holcim Feb 2002: Jugantor publishes ‘Holcim – cement na chhai’ Shut-down of Holcim sales Press Conference Channel-support Opinion-leaders’ support Sales of Feb of Holcim – highest in 2002
What helped win back the ‘image’? Truth Utlizing all possible channels Cohesive, centralized manner Responsiveness
Flip-side of ‘negative news’ – publicity!

Dealing with the Media Personnel
They are human beings
Relationship matters
There is nothing personal There job is to ‘sell’ news Negative news sells betters Doesn’t mean the journalist himself is negative
How do you bring them ‘on board’? How do you keep them ‘engaged’?
Centralized contact point Responsiveness Honest ‘No Comments’ is also an option
Thank you
