Why PR?

Simply put, advertising places ads while PR places news. Both are designed to elevate interest in both products and services. Both often use the same media: print, radio, television and the Internet. These are where the similarities end.

Advertising is bringing a product or service to the attention of potential and current customers. Advertising is typically done with signs, brochures, commercials, direct mailings or e-mail messages.

PR includes ongoing activities to ensure the company has a strong public image and includes helping the public to understand the company and its products. PR allows you to tell your story indirectly through a third-party outlet, the media.

Many well-known brands have been built with virtually no advertising at all: The Body Shop, Starbucks, Wal-Mart and Sam’s Club.
