Building Great Reputations
PR works with an organization, company, or individual to cultivate a story that portrays that client’s reputation, idea, product, position in a positive light. So, in a sense, you can think of PR as storytellers. Unlike advertisers, who tell stories through paid methods, PR professionals tell their stories through unpaid or earned media.
