We’ve had a great first year at AlexanderG Public Relations. 2010 has been a year of challenge, but also one of triumph. We want to help you succeed in the New Year–so please keep us in mind for your public relations, marketing and business management consulting needs.
What’s Being Said About Your Company Online?
We received some nice amplification of Alex’s recent interview with the Spiral16 blog:
You’re going to be hearing more about this as we get further into the social media age, but Alex Greenwood outlines the case for monitoring social media as a means of growing a business or other organization and protecting its interests. Isn’t that what PR is about?
Alex Greenwood likens social media monitoring to being out in the hallway, say, the Internet, listening to the talk there. How do you know your organization’s name will come up? You don’t until it does, or a reporter calls. But even if your organization doesn’t come up for a while, the names of competitors, or the emergence of new business conditions, will be generating buzz. If you’re listening, you’ll be gaining valuable new business intelligence.
“Companies and organizations that monitor the social media space today – and use the data to address problems and opportunities –are years ahead of the game,” Greenwood believes. “Aha,” he adds, “a competitive edge. Who doesn’t like that?” Read the rest here.
As the hours of this year grow short, we’ll close with an invitation to visit our website to sign up for new posts from our AlexanderG Whiz Blog. We’re also on Facebook, LinkedIn and Twitter–so whatever way you prefer to stay in touch, we hope you’ll connect!
Again, though 2010 was challenging in many ways for us all, we believe 2011 holds the potential for triumph. We stand ready to be part of the team that gets you there.
