]]> Comment on Publicity is not public relations by Tonya Whitaker http://verdinvision.com/public-relations/publicity-is-not-public-relations/#comment-93288 Tonya Whitaker Tue, 10 Apr 2012 15:26:21 +0000 http://verdinvision.com/?p=1370#comment-93288 Like you, I am a former newspaper journalist who has stepped into public relations. I have read blogs that state journalists do not make good PR people because, for one, we don't have people skills. That is wrong. Or, we will not take the customer's standpoint seriously because as journalists we are concerned with informing the public. That is wrong too. You are correct when you said publicity is different from public relations. You are right also when you said former journalists know the reporter's mind. For 13 years, I had to decide what is newsworthy on my beat. How many PR people can say they know without a shadow of doubt what is newsworthy? Most of them have never worked in the field. I wish you much success in PR. www.mediaspencer.org Like you, I am a former newspaper journalist who has stepped into public relations.

I'm making mobile apps currently and find it really cool to implement QR codes into them. I'm amazed at QR code coupons www.Snappii.com app builder allows to create. They are really helpful for small businesses. QR code is a great invention people made. I’m making mobile apps currently and find it really cool to implement QR codes into them.

A good tip for a landing page is to encourage more likes but to also give people an idea of what they can expect to get once they like your page. I'm out of the office until Wednesday, but I'd be happy to help you with a social media consultation when I get back. Feel free to call the office at (805) 541-9005.
