WE’RE INTO PUBLIC RELATIONS
A journalist’s story or opinion leader’s comment provides priceless ‘third party endorsement’ that can exponentially increase the value and efficacy of an advertising campaign. Well placed editorial about your proposition can raise awareness, provide credibility, educate the market and drive sales.
In contrast to advertising, which is paid for space to tell everyone about your products, editorial is independently written news or features which often includes comments from industry leaders (as opposed to the salesperson) – as a result, editorial carries more weight with your potential customers.
Southern Public Relations Limited (Southern PR) is Queenstown’s only fully integrated public relations consultancy, with twelve years’ experience of promotional communication in the Southern Lakes region. Southern PR can drive journalist interest in your property and make it interesting to a wider audience by adopting a number of PR tactics. For example, they can use existing relationships and develop key messages and story angles to successfully place features about your property or development in publications such as KiaOra, NBR, Inspired magazine, Otago Daily Times, Southland Times and the Mountain Scene.
