Public relations is about getting you noticed in the media, getting you ‘publicity’.
Advertising is what you pay for; publicity is what you pray for.
Most companies use PR to communicate day to day changes within the company, a new director appointment or communicating crisis control PR about an issue.
Wolverhampton these days has a broad range of industries, including financial, legal, manufacture and education; firms also have a broad range of experience across these sectors. Many of these are not restricted by location and will take on clients who are based hundreds of miles away, as much support can be done via e-mail.
It is however always advisable to talk to agencies that are based in and around the city, as the advantages of working with a local contact cannot be over emphasised. There is always an allegiance that comes with working locally and a loyalty, that is not there when dealing via e-mail or telephone.
Meeting any of the PR agencies in Wolverhampton also gives a chance to see their offices, meet the team and talk through their industry experience.
By selecting a firm that has a background in your sector you are more likely to obtain quick results, as they should have established relationships with the media that are to be targeted, meaning a speedier return on your investment.
PR stunts are a fantastic way to get media attention.
Have a think about where the media are likely to be in Wolverhampton, particularly the national media, and do something (not illegal) in order to get your picture taken or videoed. One day your company or product is unknown, the next everyone in Wolverhampton knows you.
Done right, it can be like marketing gold dust.
Comparing PR prices is really no different to comparing any other business service or product.
All PR agencies in Wolverhampton offer different approaches and charge different rates, so by shopping around you should find the best firm for the best price.
All PR companies in Wolverhampton are independent profit making companies, with staff costs and overheads. With public relations, you do not get what you pay for. The most expensive PR company in Wolverhampton does not make them the best.
It is not however about comparing quotes to find the cheapest, that is not how marketing works. We want to help you find the ‘right’ PR firm for your business.
