PR (Public Relations) refers to how people view and think about your business, encouraging a positive response to your brand.
What your customers are saying about you is more likely to attract the attention of potential customers than what your business is saying itself. Therefore, you want it all to be good. As consumers ourselves we read reviews of businesses before we use their services or buy the product listed.
PR is a way of controlling and boosting these perceptions. A good PR campaign will ensure that there are as many trusted independent commentators talking about your brand. And thus, promoting your business.
Why is it important for my brand?
