You’re out of your Bleeping PR Head – or Should be

Flack's Revenge

The club, or field of PR, can disdain those who want to join; particularly people so entrenched that they lack little “real world” experience. For example I started interviewing for PR gigs in my late thirties, after taking a circuitous route through various sales, marketing and IT consulting roles.

Priorities of B2B Marketing: Owned, Shared, Earned, Paid – in that Order

Sword and the Script

If the PESO model had a drawback, I think it’s the order of things. I know, I know, it’s got a circular shape in there that’s suggestive of integration, but I’ve never been able to get past the order of the words: paid, earned, shared, owned. The order of words is exactly backward. And it’s not instructive for setting priorities in marketing.

Communications Conversations

When this pandemic set in over a year ago now, a lot of things changed for me. My family was at home with me–all the time. I could no longer work at coffee shops. I no longer visited the gym.

But, something else took its toll on me, too–I started interacting less on social media.
