List 5 examples that a PR professional can
use public relations writing.
Public Relations Writing
Even with the growth of the internet, public
relations writing is still a critical part of this
role.
PR professionals are professional
communicators, and often that means
communicating through writing.
PR professionals should write and speak better
than any of their colleagues.
The ability to write easily, quickly, and clearly
is what classifies the role of PR professionals
from others in an organization.
Executives and Writing
Upper management often have finance,
legal, engineering, or sales experience, but
when they reach the top, it is important that
they are able to write articles, speeches,
memos, and testimony.
They often need advisers, those being the
PR professional.
Writing For the Eye and
Ear
There are many PR professionals who are
poor writers.
Writing for the eye must be able to
withstand the most rigorous scrutiny.
Writing for the ear gives the audience the
chance to only listen to the message and
comprehend it.
PR professionals must understand the
difference between writing for the ear and
writing for the eye.
Fundamentals of Writing
Writing takes patience and hard work.
The writing must precede the expression:
◦Must relate to the reader
◦Must engage the readers attention
◦Must concern the reader
◦Must be in the reader’s interest
It is key to come up with clever ideas, it isn’t
always about inventing the wheel, but rather
reinventing the wheel.
