The value of PR

In my last post I questioned the value of PR and I believe I finally found some true evidence of how great an impact a media release can be.  The link is to an article about an upcoming show at the theatre I intern at that is on a national website, which is a pretty big deal in the theatre community.  Several of the quotes came from the release I wrote for the release, and without the release the show would not have been described at all, because it is a new show and therefore there isn't information available about it.

So PR does matter!  It can chance the entire face of a company, if by luck (and yes, sometimes it can take a lot of luck) someone picks up your story!

Congratulations, Becky! It's great that all your hard work at your internship is paying off. Also, it's encouraging to see that your media release was utilized on the national level.
