Know your worth
July 14, 2008 at 11:52 pm | Posted in PR | Leave a commentWhat do you have to offer an organization?
As professionals in the business of PR and communications…if we can’t promote ourselves, we have no business being in the field.
Companies expect us to build reputations, create awareness and get out key messages. When was the last time you thought about those important elements when it comes to brand you?
I cannot stress the importance of self promotion…in a modest way of course. As communications professionals we need to learn how to create awareness and value for what we do. We are the educators, ambassadors and voices of an organization. Believe me, its easier to sell a product than its is an idea or an image. I know, I’ve done both.
We are there in the forefront fighting public backlash, extinguishing company crises, promoting product launches, devising strategies and above all communicating with the public. Keep in mind the ability to communicate effectively is a gift and skill that not everyone has.
