PR News' PR Digital Guidebook, Volume 4

PR News has collected the best ideas and tactics and tucked them into PR News’ Digital PR Guidebook in order to lighten your load. You’ll find tremendous insights in this guidebook. From how to master Facebook for your brand to how to tweet during a crisis, this guidebook will show you the way. From optimizing your press releases (yes, press releases are still important) to integrating mobile into your PR plan, this book will serve as your guide. We show you how to measure social media results in meaningful ways, with the added benefit of impressing your boss or clients. PR News readers often ask us what their role is with video, and after reading this book you’ll see how important it is to your communications plan not only because it’s favored in the search algorithm but because investors and other stakeholders actually do watch your videos and make important decisions based on what they are seeing and hearing about your organization. Not to forget e-mail as the “original social media,” we directed some of our contributors to share what works and what’s as good as spam when it comes to e-mail. There are aha moments in the book and necessary reminders, including using “10 cent words” sparingly in your tweets and not using all 140 characters when tweeting (the shorter the tweet, the more likely it gets shared).
