Summary:
Over recent years, the word “CONTENT” has crept into the PR lexicon and has become an increasingly important element of the modern communications arsenal. As an industry, we have seemingly embraced the popular “CONTENT IS KING” mantra without challenging its true validity. PR is a gatekeeper of organic talkability and in this age of digital media consumption, content-based communications can be a powerful catalyst for conversation. The creation and distribution of content that fails to drive conversation is an ineffective marketing tactic and certainly has no place in a public relations strategy.
This course will look at the role CONTENT plays within the PR ecosystem and how it should be leveraged to deliver against measurable engagement objectives.
Content isn’t king. Conversation is. Long live the king.
