We Believe Digital Marketers Can Do Public Relations Better

Public relations is an essential element of brand awareness and trust-building, but few PR firms know how and when to integrate PR into a holistic digital marketing strategy. We do. PR is about more than impressions. It’s about fortifying your customer’s journey with stories and information that uplift all digital marketing activities and ease the customer’s path to purchase. But few other PR professionals and marketers are making that connection.

Marketing and public relations have historically existed separately, but the time is now for strategic integration. When PR is a planned portion of the digital mix, it maximizes all digital marketing efforts, amplifying growth.

It’s All about Trust

Brand reputation begins and ends online. That’s why public relations has to build trust. When a brand is trusted, a consumer will choose it repeatedly. But when trust is lost, so is revenue. We look at public relations through the lens of trust because the investment yields positive, long-term results that lead to greater market share and customer loyalty.

Chances are, trust isn’t a metric you measure. But we do. We’ve created a proprietary Trust Assessment that examines your consumer’s journey and the most influential touchpoints that are either helping or hurting your brand.
