Download or read book The Public Relations of Everything written by Robert E. Brown and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-10-30 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The public relations of "everything" takes the radical position that public relations is a profoundly different creature than a generation of its scholars and teachers have portrayed it. Today, it is clearly no longer limited, if it ever has been, to the management of communication in and between organizations. Rather, it has become an activity engaged in by everyone, and for the most basic human reasons: as an act of self-creation, self-expression, and self-protection. The book challenges both popular dismissals and ill-informed repudiations of public relations, as well as academic and classroom misconceptions. In the age of digitization and social media, everyone with a smart phone, Twitter and Facebook accounts, and the will and skill to use them, is in the media. The PR of everything – the ubiquitousness of public relations – takes a perspective that is less concerned with ideas of communication and information than with experience and drama, a way of looking at public relations inside out, upside down and from a micro rather than a macro level. Based on a combination of the research of PR practice and critical-thinking analysis of theory, and founded in the author’s extensive corporate experience, this book will be invaluable reading for scholars and practitioners alike in Public Relations, Communications and Social Media.

No longer do corporations view it as a separate, narrow, objective tactic -- a tactic that is isolated from other marketing activities. Today, most marketers understand that public relations must be linked with other marketing disciplines. They recognize that the planning and implementation of a public relations program must harmonize with overall marketing objectives.

"Dartnell's Public Relations Handbook" has been designed to guide the individual who does not perform PR duties on a daily basis, but who needs to coordinate PR efforts as one of many assigned tasks. Inexperienced PR personnel will use the handbook as a "guide" to coordinate PR efforts. The experienced PR practitioner will use this handbook as a reference tool of new techniques and strategies to help him or her excel in his or her current job.
