Contemporary global culture, rooted in neoliberalism and free market forces, increasingly emphasises appearance over substance. People and organisations are judged by image and reputation while social media encourages and enables us to develop our own public persona. This book explores the rise of promotional communication with a particular focus on public relations (PR) and its role. Organisations, from local charities to multinational corporations, employ professional PR staff to manage promotional communication, and even public institutions must position themselves in the marketplace to secure funding and approval. To what extent has PR contributed to this culture of display, this masquerade of emptiness?This book argues that the climate crisis demands not more performance but a new approach, one of ‘depth public relations'. This concerpt builds on ideas not only from public relations, but also psychology, sociology and philosophy, as well as introducing the voices of climate activists and others seeking a deeper relationship with the human and non- human worlds.The proposed principles of depth public relations offer suggestions for theory and practice, with profound implications for PR and related fields, and will interest all scholars of the changing communication environment.

A handbook for pushing the limits of PR to inventing things, rather than only promoting them. When PR teams live or die on the success or failure of the products and services they support, Invention in PR shows how they can take a stronger hand in their creation.This book says the profession can do better than waiting for someone else to determine, develop and package what a company sells. It spurs PR pros to go beyond what they're handed and come up with new products and services that change a brand's life.Through tales of award-winning campaigns passionately told by their creator, readers learn how to apply invention at the beginning of the PR process and take away usable strategies and tactics. With PR under constant pressure to evolve, communications pioneer Adam Ritchie uncovers practitioners'aptitude for invention and empowers them to harness it.For PR professionals ready to rebel against taking a back seat to their counterparts in marketing and advertising, Invention in PR teaches them how to beat every other discipline to the punch by coming up with the product or service idea first.This guide will fire up professionals of all generations about what they can build. It will change the way experienced pros approach their jobs, and inspire students to break the rules in the best possible ways.

Was bislang undenkbar schien, nämlich dass Nicht-Medienmarken anspruchsvolle Medienangebote unter ihrem etablierten Markennamen (»Markenmedien«) betreiben und damit in Konkurrenz zu etablierten Medien treten, ist in der Zwischenzeit – so zeigen vielfältige Beispiele – zu einer vermeintlich willkommenen Vorgehensweise avanciert. Der besondere Reiz derartiger Markenerweiterungen rührt daher, dass diese in einer Art hybriden Funktionsweise sowohl das Leistungsspektrum der Marke differenzieren als auch einen neuen Kommunikationskanal für das Unternehmen darstellen. Welche Determinanten bedingen jedoch einen Erfolg der Markenmedien? Und wirkt dieser ggf. auf die Marke zurück? Die vorliegende Studie geht diesen Fragen nach und stützt ihre Erkenntnisse auf ein umfassendes Strukturgleichungsmodell. Dabei werden die Rückwirkungseffekte auf die Marke mittels einer Vorher-Nachher-Messung analysiert.

Public Relations, Branding and Authenticity: Brand Communications in the Digital Age explores the role of PR and branding in society by considering the notion of authentic communications within the context of an emerging digital media environment. This qualitative analysis explores the challenge of developing authentic brand narratives in the digital age, whilst questioning the problematic nature of authenticity itself. Case studies of public relations activity of successful brands, and those in crisis, are supplemented by interviews with senior public relations and branding practitioners. The book lays out three specific arguments. Firstly, a repositioning of the relationship between public relations and brand practice is explored. It is argued that public relations practitioners are well placed to facilitate brands in the digital age, because of the inherent acceptance of the value of relationship building, adaptation and boundary spanning embedded in PR practice and best practice theory. Secondly, the book introduces a new concept of riparian brands. Such brands are based on solid core values, but have an ability to atune, adjust and naturalise to the prevailing social, cultural and economic environment. Thirdly, the book presents an ontology of the riparian brand in the form of an authentic brand wheel and 15 real-time interaction success factors. Aimed at both academics and practitioners interested in the theoretical development of PR and its emerging relationship with branding, it will also be of interest to scholars of corporate communications, corporate reputation and branding.

Digital changes everything. That's a truth that has played out across industries the world over. And PR is a perfect example of an industry that has been forced to transform. Across every PR discipline, from media relations and content creation through to social media and influencer marketing, digital has changed traditional PR techniques and ushered in a whole new wave of specialisms that previously did not exist. This book acts as a guide to this era of transformation. It's a manual that summaries the trends affecting our industry. It examines the techniques that have changed and also investigates some of the new approaches that are starting to emerge. It poses the questions that modern PR practitioners need to ask, whether working in-house or in an agency, and will be equally relevant for those studying PR or coming into the industry as it will those who are hardened professionals facing a future that looks significantly different to the tried and tested approaches of the past. This is a book about opportunity. A book that shines a light on how adoption of data, audience planning and creativity, seen through a digital lens, can transform an industry, making it more relevant and necessary that ever before. It's a celebration of the power of earned media in a world where we are, as consumers of media, increasingly shunning interruptive marketing and looking for connection and true engagement.

Today, globalisation has reached its peak not only due to economic integration, but also by the multiplier effect stemmed from digital communication technologies. The concept of «global village», mentioned nearly half a century ago by Marshall McLuhan, confronts us as actual reality. Of course, this approach creates radical impact on all management practices. Public relations is one of the management instruments which is affected most by the emergent change in approach within this context. In this volume, the authors define public relations through an international perspective within the context of both theory and practice. Consisting of fifteen sections, the book describes what intra- and extra-organisational public relation theories and practices correspond to in the present day.

This book brings together a broad and diverse range of new and radical approaches to public relations focussing on the increasingly vital role that visual, sensory and physical elements factors play in shaping communication. Engaging with recent developments in critical and cultural theories, it outlines how non-textual and non-representational forces play a central role in the efficacy and reception of public relations.Challenging the dominant accounts of public relations which center on the purely representational uses of text and imagery, the book critiques the suitability of accepted definitions of the field and highlights future directions for conceptualizing strategic communication within a multi-sensory environment. Drawing on the work of global researchers in public relations, visual culture and communication, design and cultural theory, it brings a welcome inter-disciplinary approach which pushes the boundaries of public relations scholarship in a global cultural context. This exciting analysis will be of great interest to public relations scholars, advanced students of strategic communication, as well as communication researchers from cultural, media and critical studies exploring PR as a socio-cultural phenomenon.

Highly accessible, full of memorable examples, and at times amusing, this book presents ten powerful techniques for getting your point across in all venues—including new media.In today's world, nearly everyone, including business professionals and executives, salespeople, teachers, authors, and entrepreneurs—in short, anyone who needs to put an idea before others—needs strong presentation and persuasion skills. Moreover, just as important as traditional public speaking skills is the ability to present effectively via various media. Today's presentation is just as likely to be given over Skype or on YouTube as in a room, before a live audience.Present Like a Pro shares the expertise of a veteran presenter who knows what is demanded in today's marketplace and has lectured publicly, appeared on television, and testified before Congress. The straightforward, step-by-step instructions provide a sensible'plan of attack'for preparing and presenting. The ten techniques give readers the ability to simplify the challenge of presenting, to understand what works, and to develop an effective strategy for solving any presentation problems not directly covered in the book. Author Carl Hausman addresses all of the common problems for those new to presenting or working in a new environment, such as overcoming stage fright, injecting humor and wit into a presentation while delivering credible expertise, and winning over an inattentive, skeptical, or hostile audience.

Wie beeinflussen Medien und PR unsere Wahrnehmung der Welt? Wie beeinflussen sie unsere Einstellungen – gegenüber politischen Entwicklungen, Personen des öffentlichen Lebens, Institutionen oder Konzernen? Dass sie eine entscheidende Rolle bei der Ausbildung von Einstellungen einnehmen, gerade auch in Bezug auf Dinge, die außerhalb unserer eigenen Erfahrbarkeit liegen, gilt mittlerweile in einer Vielzahl von Disziplinen als unbestritten. Ebenso unbestritten ist die Rolle von Vertrauen als eine der essentiellen Einstellungen im menschlichen Miteinander. Es herrscht Einigkeit: Ohne Vertrauen wäre ein Miteinander nicht möglich. Unternehmen werben daher um das Vertrauen ihrer Kunden wie Parteien um das der Wähler. Die vorliegende Arbeit identifiziert Strategien der Vertrauensförderung innerhalb von Public Relations. Am Beispiel des ADAC wird aus Sicht von Organisationen aufgezeigt, wie sie Vertrauen durch bestimmte Kommunikationsstrategien aufbauen bzw. aufrecht erhalten oder – wie im Falle des ADAC nach dem „Gelben Engel“-Skandal – versuchen können, es zurückzugewinnen.

Gesättigte Märkte, hoher Konkurrenzdruck und die Informationsüberlastung der Konsumenten sind nur einige Rahmenbedingungen, die Eventmarketing zu einem immer häufiger genutzten Instrument der Unternehmenskommunikation machen. In großen Unternehmen sind Events mittlerweile sogar fester Bestandteil des Kommunikations-Mix. Doch nicht nur die Anzahl der Events steigt, auch die dafür bereitgestellten Budgets werden immer größer – nur die wenigsten dieser erlebnisorientierten Veranstaltungen verursachen geringere Kosten als 25 Tsd. Euro und sind damit, auf den ersten Blick, sehr kostspielige Aktionen. Bedeutet das also, dass sie für mittelständische Unternehmen mit geringen Marketing-Budgets nicht in Frage kommen? Das vorliegende Buch behandelt detailliert die Bereiche Eventmarketing und deutscher Mittelstand. Es zeigt auf, warum Events geeignete und erfolgversprechende Maßnahmen sind, um die für mittelständische Unternehmen besonders wichtige Kundennähe und Kundenbindung auf- und auszubauen. Ob dies trotz einer eher geringen Budgetausstattung möglich ist, wird an einem aktuellen Beispiel aus der Praxis und einer empirischen Untersuchung beantwortet.

In den letzten Jahren hat sich die Medienwelt grundlegend verändert. Hatten es Medienschaffende vor nicht allzu langer Zeit vor allem mit den drei klassischen Medien Zeitung/Magazin, Hörfunk und TV zu tun, nimmt das noch junge Medium Internet eine immer größere Rolle ein und scheint die anderen Medien sogar langsam aber sicher von der Bildfläche zu drängen. Kurz: Das Internet stellt die Medienlandschaft komplett auf den Kopf. Wir bekommen unsere Informationen nicht mehr nur per Zeitung, TV oder Radio - wir finden sie online: YouTube zeigt uns die aktuellsten Clips, unsere Freunde bei Facebook oder Twitter halten uns über alles andere in Echtzeit auf dem Laufenden - viel schneller, als es eine Zeitung kann. Besonders eine Generation rückt dabei immer mehr ins Blickfeld der Medienschaffenden: Die Digital Natives, die erste Generation des Internets. Sie sind mit den neuen Medien aufgewachsen und verstehen es wie keine andere Generation sich live zu informieren. Sie sind die neue Zielgruppe der Medien und damit auch der Public Relations. Was genau aber zeichnet diese Generation und ihre Mediennutzung aus? Was sollte ein PR-Manager heute für seine erfolgreiche und ganzheitliche PR-Arbeit beachten? Welchen Stellenwert nehmen die bisherigen Instrumente der PR ein? Und: Welche neuen Online-Tools können für moderne Kommunikationsarbeit eingesetzt werden. All diese Fragen beantwortet Benjamin Gust leicht verständlich und auf den Punkt gebracht - sowohl für PR-Profils, die ihr Wissen im Online-Bereich auffrischen wollen, als auch für kleinere Unternehmen und Laien, die sich ein Bild von den neuen Möglichkeiten der günstigen Social-Media-Kommunikation machen wollen.

Mit der Durchführung eines Musiksponsorings verbinden Unternehmen in der Regel bestimmte marketing-spezifische Zielsetzungen. Von hohem Stellenwert ist in diesem Kontext der so genannte'Imagetransfer', bei dem eine Übertragung bestimmter (positiver) Imagebestandteile des Gesponserten auf das Image des Sponsors intendiert ist. Dabei sollen neben'sachlichen'Merkmalen und Charaktereigenschaften, wie zum Beispiel'jugendlich'oder'dynamisch', ebenfalls'emotionale'Imagebestandteile auf das Image des Sponsors transferiert werden. Mit der systematischen Beeinflussung ihres Images bzw. der Images ihrer Marken und Produkte verfolgen Unternehmen das Ziel, am positiven Image des Gesponserten zu partizipieren und dadurch einen Vorteil gegenüber Wettbewerbern zu erlangen. Von hoher Bedeutung ist hierbei vor allem die'Aufladung'des Unternehmensimages mit positiven Emotionen. Emotionen haben nach heutigem Kenntnisstand einen enormen Einfluss auf das gesamte Denken und Verhalten von Menschen. Sie bewerten unsere Wahrnehmungen, Gedanken und Erfahrungen nach dem Schema positiv/negativ und bestimmen unsere Bereitschaft, sich Situationen, Objekten, Vorstellungen, Erinnerungen etc. anzunähern bzw. abzuwenden. Dementsprechend leisten Emotionen ebenfalls einen entscheidenden Beitrag bei den Kaufentscheidungen der Konsumenten. Dass insbesondere Musik in der Lage ist Menschen emotional zu bewegen, ist allgemein bekannt sowie wissenschaftlich bewiesen. Nicht ohne Grund wird Musik gemeinhin auch als die Sprache der Gefühle bezeichnet. Dabei besteht die Annahme, dass durch das Hören von Musik vor allem positive Emotionen hervorgerufen werden. Vor diesem Hintergrund geht der Autor der Frage nach, ob und in welcher Weise ein Sponsoring in dem Bereich der Musik das Image eines Unternehmens positiv beeinflussen kann.
