At SHIFT we’re big proponents of data-driven PR. Living on the B2B side of the house, I’ve been thrilled by the enthusiasm we’re seeing for deeper understanding on how these elements play into our PR programs and the RFP’s we’re receiving.

Our audience doesn’t care whether a video, infographic, animated GIF, podcast, or story is hosted by us (owned), shared by third parties (owned), or sponsored (paid). Forward-thinking public relations professionals know that advertising and public relations together often generate greater impact than each channel separately.
