COME SHARE SOME EFFECTIVE SOCIAL MEDIA TIPS WITH US



"THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN SOCIAL MEDIA AND  PR"



           

















The relationship between the news media and the Public Relations industry is a complex and increasingly symbiotic one. The media is the central vehicle for much of the PR industry's messages. reason is because Public Relations Practitioners want to place their stories in the news or other publications and programmes. Without being able to do this, PR would lose one of its main avenues for communication with the public.

The PR agencies aim is to build ongoing relationships with journalists and media sources. The more and better relationships they can build, the more influence they can exert on the media., and that was a brief you should know under the practise of PR. With every little, now PRPs are able to communicate much at a cheaper and valued price when using social media.
 APPLICABLE WAYS IN WHICH THE SOCIAL MEDIA ARE HELPFUL IN PR:
  • Community sharing – People are able to posts and comments on each other, they also share file, and community interest.
  • Multimedia – Blogs, Podcasts, Video, Photos, Forums, Internet messaging, and Texting helps the flow of communication.
  • Immediate. It takes less and less time for one to publish on social media. With a service like Twitter or Internet messaging, it is a matter of seconds
  • Collapsed geographically, or death of distance: There is no distance in social media.
  • Social media incorporate old and new Internet technologies. The World Wide Web is more than 20 years old at the time of writing, and the Internet is more than 50 years old. Social media incorporate all of technologies

Say "NO" to Human Trafficking;

LET PRPs DO THE WORK





Media for me has become a daily-bread on a daily basic. Socially it is more like I can not finish my day without any communications related to the media.

 As a Public Relations student,  I found it more easier to spy on what the media has for the community and society as well as the trend that is leading us as human beings.

If only times could turn back, how would you imagine life without these gadgets we are using today? your Facebook, Tweeter, YouTube, MySpace and other sites. With communication and technologies life can be easy to interact with peers, and I'm very glad that the new era that we live in today is very outsourcing. As for now I don't really have to buy newspapers or listen to the radio or either pay attention on TV, I can read the online news up-date and articles for information.

From the picture above, I was very shocked to hear such an immoral news on Times (online newspaper), after the review of a child porn accused, of the six allegedly men who were perpetrating crime, while they are people who ought to be our protectors in the society.

THE SIX ARRESTED MEN WERE:

  • Two Teachers
  • A retired School Principal
  • A Lawyer
  • Dermatologist;
  • and Businessman
Taking a deep look on the profiles of those arrested, it affirms that these kind of  crimes attracts even the most trusted in the society. so PRPs should keep on eye by doing some campaigns for such issues.
