Recommendation

Don Middleberg adapts key public relations strategies to the new media landscape, transformed by the Internet and wireless communications. He emphasizes the need for response speed and short-term - as well as long-term - planning, since this new environment changes so quickly as to render the future unpredictable. He outlines techniques for getting buzz, which is now a critical element in effective branding. However, this book cannot help but be affected by the dot-com downfall: Many of its examples refer to now defunct companies, or to those who are in deep trouble (and may well be deceased by the time you read this review). Still, if you overlook the problems that come from writing during the Internet reality-warp, getabstract.com recommends this executive guide for its solid PR strategies, which although geared for a high-tech world, are firmly rooted in traditional method.

Take-Aways

  • Today, every company needs public relations (PR) to support its brand.
  • Public relations people target journalists; advertisers target customers.
  • The Internet has made speed and agility essential.
