Why is PR Important?

Public relations is vastly essential both for personal branding and large corporations, and everyone and everything in between. Good PR builds authority, credibility, and visibility for you and your business. It communicates who you are and what you stand for to your target audience and beyond.

PR specialists hold the remarkable privilege of getting to learn everything about you as they work with you to pick out the best bits to create your personal brand narrative. And this is how they craft your official origin story.

These days, everything is on the internet. From social media to targeted ads to press features to news publications, if a potential customer or client wants to learn about you, they can do so at their very fingertips on a smart device. PR is the act of managing your branding and controlling your narrative. In the politest way, of course it’s important.

Personal Branding for Entrepreneurs

As a top PR agency, we specialize in PR for entrepreneurs and real estate press and work with cryptocurrency and healthcare professionals.

Think of it this way: You know who you are. Your family and friends know who you are. Beyond that, you’re a ‘nobody’ in the grand scheme of things — and that’s a great place to start! By crafting your brand identity from the bottom up and bottom of your heart, you have a significant advantage. You still have the element of surprise.

Somebody well-known trying to start a new business has the baggage of their past to carry into their new identity — whether good or bad baggage, it can sway the narrative about you away from who you are becoming.

But if you’re just starting, you can be whoever you want to be. Are you the humanitarian with a just cause that gives back to your community? Do you want to empower people like you to be their best selves and live their best lives? Does your new project have a great green initiative? Or perhaps you simply want to bring joy and convenience to the lives of others? Maybe a combination of these with some personal flair mixed in?

Whatever it is, that is your story. A great PR firm’s job is to take your grand ideas and hone them into a story that will be your throughline in all of your articles.

Essentially, PR teaches the public who you are and what to remember about you. So the next time they are ‘pop quizzed’ in a store aisle or online shopping for your business against your competitors, they remember who to buy from.

Additionally, PR sends the message you want to send to your audience, your competitors, and other businesses that may find you and want to partner with you in some way because of your press coverage. You just never know — and that is the beauty of it. PR opens doors, some on purpose, and some by happenstance. It is an organic communications art form with a high degree of tact.
