Thinking of Hiring a PR Firm? Make Sure You Ask These 5 Questions
Inc.
October 25, 2016
A PR exec shares inside tips for hiring the best media representatives.
You’re starting a brand-new business and you’re sure it will be a success–if only you can get the word out and get potential customers to notice you. Or you already have a business bringing in solid returns but you want to kick things to the next level. Either way, you’re looking to get noticed, and so you’re thinking about hiring a public relations professional or agency.
It’s almost always a good idea. “The media’s power of persuasion provides a third-party endorsement you can’t get elsewhere,” explains Ann Noder, CEO of Pitch Public Relations. “In the consumer’s eyes, if a TV show or magazine is featuring you, your business must be credible.” Many of my columns (including this one) begin with a pitch from a smart PR person. And you’ll be awfully glad to have one or more PR professionals already on the job if you or your company is ever the focus of unwelcome media attention because of a lawsuit, faulty product, or other unpleasant event.

If you’re a regular reader, you might have noticed my recent focus on sales. In today’s economy, nothing is as important as sales. And for solopreneur product companies, this is doubly true.
Generating sales in the most cost-effective way possible is imperative. The best way is to create buzz through PR or press coverage, which adds credibility to your story. Compared to advertising, the value of successful PR can be profound. It is especially cost-effective if you do it yourself. As an inventor, you have a special advantage because the public loves stories about new inventors, their brilliant ideas and how they created something from nothing.
