In life, there are certain universal truths that exist. If you’re waiting for a call and go to the bathroom, the person will call when you go. Or, when looking diligently for something, you can never find it. No matter how you break it down, you can’t get away from the fact that certain things […].

Since its debut in 2011, the Governors Ball has made a name for itself in the music industry and in the Big Apple. The music festival has grown from a local one-day event to the sixth most popular summer festival in the U.S. When it started, Governors Ball had the highest attendance for any event at its original location, Governors Island. Taking note of what succeeded the first time, the festival’s producers, Founders Entertainment, moved the festival to Randall’s Island, added a second-day lin

Many brands are shifting their focus from traditional marketing to digital marketing , with good reason. Recent trends are showing a decline in engagement from traditional marketing efforts and an increase in engagement on the digital marketing front. For decades, traditional marketing dominated the advertising industry but there was always a major component missing: the ability to accurately track data.

Last week, I talked about how not listening on social media could seriously jeopardize your business. Now I want to step away from the importance of listening specifically to what’s being said about your brand and move toward paying attention to what’s happening on social media to grow your community. First, What do You Mean by Community? When we talk about community in terms of social media, we’re talking about the core group of people who consistently pay attention to what you share, who inter

Beyond PR

JUNE 8, 2016

When the worlds of PR and media are discussed, it’s impossible to avoid parallels. The challenges both industries face and the changes required are often similar if not the same. Don’t make the mistake, though, of viewing PR and media simply as two lines running parallel with one another. This oversimplification can cause many to miss the crux of PR and media’s relationship and lead to disconnects and disappointment.

While researching my book about online reputation issues , I was fortunate to speak with executives from several of the top online review sites. (One site wouldn’t talk to me, but that’s another story.) Glassdoor stands out because it has brought the online review to the workplace. The folks who founded the site realized that while we may spend a few weeks a year traveling and on vacation, we spend 40-50 hours every week during the rest of the year at work.

As of April 2016, Instagram had around 400 million users worldwide and is one of the fastest growing social networks. It is based solely on image and video content uploads, of which there are more than 80 million posted every day. A popular social media platform for both users and brands, so it’s hardly surprising that Instagram has just announced it plans to launch business friendly tools that provide insights into engaging posts and audience.

Guest Post by Matt LaCasse. I have to say it: Snapchat is the hot NKOTB for social media. Much like Twitter when it invaded mainstream America in 2008, Snapchat is either worshipped, or given the “get off my lawn” treatment, depending on the user’s experience with it and their age (for the most part). Some of us are the exception to that age rule, and Snapchat continues to gain market share in these older demographics.

Long time readers of this blog may recall my Extreme Media Relations series, about those who go overboard to sway the press. It’s been years, but I thought I’d post another just for Peter Thiel. In case you’ve been living under a rock, he recently proudly admitted to underwriting Hulk Hogan’s lawsuit against Gawker for their publishing of a sex tape featuring the wrestler.
