Benefits of Public Relations & PR:
The Most Economical Forms
Of Mass Communication

benefits-public-relations-prThere are many benefits of public relations and PR. If you want to reach large audiences as inexpensively as possible, public relations is the way to go.

Public relations includes the creation and distribution of information, primarily in the form of stories, published or broadcast by mass media such as newspapers, magazines, television and radio. Because the media do not charge for publishing these articles, but consider them valuable for their readers, PR has the power to reach millions of people for very little money, generating many valuable sales leads.

Benefits of Public Relations and Publicity include:

  • The most economical way by far to reach mass audiences
  • Stimulates awareness of and demand for your company products or services
  • Develops a stronger, more controlled image for your firm
  • Creates the perception that the company is active, "on the move"
  • Has seven times the credibility of advertising, studies show
  • Provides an advantage over competitors who do not use ‘P.R.’ effectively

Lawrimore’s principals have over 30 years of experience in public relations and have won national awards for their work. Among the thousands of articles they have written are many that have been carried by the Associated Press to news media around the world, reaching literally many millions of readers. Other key "placements" have included numerous multi-page articles in trade publications read by our clients' target prospects.

Public relations (PR) also includes print and email newsletters, information brochures, community relations, speeches, government relations and many other forms of communication in which time and space are not charged by the media.

Photographs or other visuals add to a story’s appeal and should be included when possible. Lawrimore staff can take publicity photos in the Charlotte region or subcontract with skilled photographers anywhere in the U.S.

How We Work
Producing PR
For you

Effective public relations begins with planning the audiences you want to reach and the messages you want to send. Charlotte public relations firm Lawrimore Inc. has many years of P.R. experience, and we know what editors are looking for. We frequently study leading publications or media serving target markets to better understand each one's style and preferences.

Once we identify one or more good story ideas working with you, we gather existing information and interview key people inside and outside the company. Then we write the article just as we believe reporters for the target publications would. This includes appropriate grammatical and structural style, attribution, pacing and other important elements to help ensure its quick acceptance.

Once we've written the story and you've approved, we send it to the media. Often they will run it as written, but other times they will assign a reporter to write it "their way." But having our prewritten story assures the best possible coverage and often a much longer article. Later we can send it to other media as appropriate. Contact us to learn more.
