Failed Expectations, Facebook Changes, & More

Sep 29, 2011 | Chats, PR Updates

During the September 28 #solopr Twitter chat, independent PR pros shared insight on failed expectations, paying for premium services, Facebook's recent changes, and marketing books. Specifically, the following questions were addressed:

1. How do you handle not securing any media coverage for your client? (or more generally, failing to meet expectations) #solopr

2. @TexAnne noted, HARO now has a Premium service (helpareporter.com/subscriptions). How do you decide what's worth paying for? #solopr

3. Do your clients care about all the recent Facebook changes? Do they look to you for guidance (or not even noticed)? #solopr

4. What is the best marketing-related book you've read lately? (will build a list for Solo PR Pro) #solopr

Be sure to check out the transcript in PDF for the full discussion. Note that the transcript is in reverse chronological order.

  1. Thanks for taking time for sharing this article; it was excellent and very informative. Excellent. Wonderful. What is interesting here is not just info, but style of presentation of information. Though you make some very fascinating points, you’re going to have to do more than bring up a few things that may be different than what we’ve already heard. Thank you.
