Here’s the public relations reality:
You can talk all day about your company and the great work it does.
Or you can sit people down for three minutes and SHOW them what you’re all about.
Have you ever done a poll or questionnaire of your employees, clients or general audience?
What about gather information…on people…for anything at all? Of course you have.
Well, there’s an easier way, and it’s a tactic I use all the time on various public relations projects.
Google Forms.
The RCG University idea began, like most of ours do, around the table in staff meeting.
Danny volunteered to lead the inaugural program on “Content Marketing” on August 7. The lunch booked up quickly, and the attendees loved it. When we announced the LinkedIn seminar for this September 4, it booked up within a week!
A public relations disaster in a public restroom: a soap dispenser with no soap, a dirty countertop or worst of all, an empty toilet paper roll.

It’s everyone’s favorite time of year – Canada’s Best Restroom Season!
In preparation for the annual contest on behalf of my client Cintas, I took the time to educate myself on Canada’s new anti-spam legislation (CASL) that went into effect on July 1. Corporations that violate the law are threatened with fines from $1 to $10 million, so I reached out to my contacts at the Canadian Public Relations Society, read and researched articles online and talked to CASL experts across Canada to be sure I remained in compliance. It’s important to stay up on industry information and protect my client from unintentionally breaking the law.

No, it’s not Facebook. It isn’t Twitter. And it’s not LinkedIn, Pinterest, Instagram or Flooger (OK, I made the last one up).
Despite the MANY social media options on the market, the #1 way to reach customers is still email marketing.
