We’ve got another great episode of The Stocki Exchange Marketing Show coming at you this week! John is joined by Dianna Stampfler of Promote Michigan to talk all things Public Relations. This episode is jam-packed with great information, so sit back and enjoy!

 

The pair talks about both the distinction between PR and Marketing and how the two relate to one another. Dianna explains how PR has evolved over the years, and how technology and social media are shaping its future. The two also stress the importance of finding the correct context for your content, and ways to build business relationships that will benefit you and your clients. Dianna also expresses how a personalized, handwritten correspondence can still be effective.

In One Word Answers, John asks Dianna what she’d do with a case of 1961 Chateau Margaux wine, and the pair discuss high-quality wine in general. During Ask The Stocki Exchange, John talks about his experiences in working overseas and how it compares to working in  Northern Michigan, and Dianna explains the benefit of keeping in touch with your contacts. At the end of the show, we detail this week’s giveaway, and it’s a good one! We’re giving away a gift basket from Tony Rubleski, Dianna’s mentor and a guru in the marketing and PR worlds.
