Re: PR agencies vs. Ad agencies, in a whole new way, disintermediating the ‘journalist’!

Gautam Ghosh — Wed, 02 Apr 2014 23:51:48 -0000

See the last para of this article by Vanita Kholi Khandekar http://www.business-standar...

"Earlier this year, a large multinational company invited public relation (PR) firms based in India to pitch for its business. It earnestly sought to understand how it could build relationships with journalists who track the sector. The idea was to have the ability to communicate to the right people who understand how the industry operates in times of crisis or when some news is breaking. The pitching PR firms just told them to release an ad campaign in the dailies instead - that would fulfil the purpose better than trying to talk to a journalist. "

karthik,

Most agencies don't think about context and relevance at all. Because their clients don't think about it - because most clients are clueless about social. They use traditional MSM metrics to social like "tweetreach". I've had agencies approach me for telecom/healthcare products. I have ignored them.

Clients need to be educated how to get more from their agencies.

arre sir, why thanks? :) Loved it. I myself have stopped reading newspapers, watching TV. Movies are the only indulgence. Last bought clothes when I was in Mumbai and needed jeans. You can say my return to a simple life was forced by circumstances :)

Re: IMO

Gautam Ghosh — Thu, 03 May 2012 05:06:44 -0000

Ah that's the million (billion?) dollar question - will it be big data (sounds like Bigfoot, so mythical) or analytics (how anal can you get?) or the creation of curation tools - to combat Clay's hugely popular remark of "filter failure" , will the (shudder) Klout/Kred/Traackrs be the answer...

It's the Wild Wild West of social opinion, pardner !
