Small business marketing consultants in Brisbane with three reasons you need PR for your small business

2017-07-28

Our small business marketing consultants in Brisbane explain that you can't be a bystander when it comes to telling others about your business. Understanding PR, what it can do and how to use it is one of the wisest investments you can make. 

Here are three points to keep in mind when it comes to PR for your small business:

1. PR delivers more value than advertising

PR can be worth up to 5 times the cost of advertising. Why? Because genuine editorial can’t be bought. PR works by encouraging the media to tell your story for you. When done well, it can have a big influence on how your business or products are viewed by your customers. PR works with the reviewers to highlight genuine benefits and encourage a fair and balanced view.

2. Build your reputation

While a PR campaign can only ever be as good as the business or products it is promoting, a well-planned PR campaign can help establish good relationships and promote understanding with those who are important to you. Customers, suppliers, industry bodies, employees and so on – all will have opinions about your business. The more you communicate effectively with them, the more opportunities there are for building trust and establishing a positive reputation.

3. Get Noticed

With the advent of social media, blogging and the ‘always on’ culture of today’s communications, businesses that use PR to help them establish their own voice in the hubbub gain advantage.  While traditional PR still has a place when it comes to working with the media, the internet has changed forever the way businesses can interact directly with their customers. Whether it’s a blog, posting press releases to relevant sites or creating your own social media campaign, PR helps you manage it all.
