What can a modern public relations agency offer?
September 16, 2022
Traditionally speaking, a public relations agency is known for its end-to-end media management prowess – writing stellar media releases, pitching them to relevant news contacts and achieving earned coverage for your story. They’ve also got a reputation for being the people to call when disaster strikes, so they can minimise any negative coverage your brand might encounter.
While a public relations agency still offers all of these services, it’s a common misconception that their skillset ends there. Which, in 2022, is simply not true!
We’ll take you through the variety of services a modern Brisbane-based public relations agency like Pitch can offer you.
Harness the power of your social media channels
In today’s media landscape, a strong, organic social media presence is equally as important as making headlines. When done well, your social media platforms can also create opportunities for earned media coverage.
Did you know that in 2022, a company’s social media channels are often the first touchpoint between them and their target audience? Audiences are now turning to your Facebook or Instagram pages before heading to your website. This means you need to maintain a consistent social media presence that’s engaging, relevant and adds value to your customer – especially since the average person’s attention span is just 8.25 seconds.
When you engage social media experts like the team at Pitch, your customers won’t want to scroll past your content. Our end-to-end social media management approach allows us to start at the beginning with a plan and strategy that is bespoke and curated to align with your brand, before handling the daily stuff you don’t have time for. Our full suite of social media services include:
- Strategy development
- Content creation including imagery, graphics, captions, hashtag research and scheduling
