Press Releases Are Not a PR Strategy: An Executive's Guide to Public Relations

This book is intended as a quick overview for executives, PR professionals, and communications students who want to understand the number one reason most PR programs fail: they forget that the editor or analyst should be the primary audience, not customers. Twenty-five chapters cover everything from the top 10 misconceptions about PR to legal regulations, websites, white papers, taking on the competition, and ethics. There is also a helpful directory of resources to aid PR efforts.
