You don't need to have deep pockets as a way to possess a publicity programme. A lot of what larger, expensive Public Relations companies can do you can too at a fraction from the cost. Naturally sensibilities prevail and when your business expands with a certain size then you would be best advised to secure the service of your Celebrity Public Relations Agent. Much like many other marketing activities you are able to talk to companies the area Chamber of Commerce, local branch of the BNI and in many cases Business Link for recommendations about which team you could approach. But here i am focused on what public relations activity you can generate yourself.


There is an old adage from the newspaper industry that states 'its everything about the story' (rather in the same way that an Estate Agent will quote that selling houses is all about 'Location, location, location'). So when you start to consider how to go about setting up a P.R. campaign then you need to consentrate 'Story, story, story'. It'll, naturally enough, be very useful in the event you already advertise together with the periodical (from your local daily paper fot it special interest monthly magazine). They are more likely to entertain a Press Release of your stuff. Never submit a 'non' story - your wasting your own time along with the recipients. Maybe the 'story' comes up. An illustration would be the first anniversary with the establishment of one's business, or relocating premises due to expansion. Becoming fitter in the first place you own an innovative product or service. But probably you will have to 'create a story'. Make note of ideas because they eventually be yours (at this point you will be aware that I am a fantastic believer in carrying something around with you constantly where you'll be able to inscribe ideas and thoughts before they fall beyond recall). Ideas don't have to be from 'within the box'. For instance becoming fitter a staff member (or even yourself) involve some form of relationship which has a charity. Set the business (as well as individual) to behave that raises money with the charity. 'Sally Brown of Thomas Crown Ltd Is Raising Funds For Save A Chimpanzee in Africa'...that type of thing. Another example might be if you're within the catering industry and there's village fate or County Fair looming then bake a great gift because of it, similar to 'Largest Yorkshire Pudding'....that kind of thing. Look around for opportunities to put your company name 'up in lights'. If you are a expert within your field or an authority on something you'll be able to offer the services you receive (gratis if needs be) to be an authority author because of the fact that your particular business or who you benefit is offered a good mention. Think about writing your own articles on a single or any of the many on-line magazines. Your accreditation will direct the various readers in your business.
