Always believed that 95% of blogs out there are hot air. The other 5% know actually what they're doing and do a great job, abiding by journalism ethics. Those are the credible ones. Thanks, Dave!

Projections?

I'm curious for those in the PR agency business who believes they'll see an increase in revenues in 2010 or do you think income will be stagnant?

As for us, we're going to be up nearly 30 percent this year thanks to sticking with our Pay-on-Performance model, and expect no less than the same for 2010.

What say you?

Skyline San Diego - What's Working in Exhibiting

I've just come across what I think is a really good white paper by Skyline San Diego on what's working in exhibiting.I've attached it to the end of this blog for download, but here's some key points in the analysis that I believe are very pertinent for marketers to view as they wrestle with setting their 2010 budgets:

AdAge - As Media Market Shrinks, PR Passes Up Reporters, Pitches Directly to Consumers

This article is well worth the read, particularly as it mentions how PR Agencies must look beyond traditional media relations and more toward engagement models.

While I don't agree that the tactic of reaching out to newspapers, magazines and television stations is at all dead (even though giving them press releases is), this article clearly and accurately discusses how a multi-pronged approach to getting… Continue

I'm open to a conference call...but the basic problem of an "association" is that "pay-for-performance" seems to have as many definitions as there are agencies or people practicing it. And in effect, we are in competition with each other...often with those differences offering a competitive advantage. Payperclip charges considerably different than INK, for example...

My veep of operations found it while cruising the web and suggested I respond and comment.

My pleasure. I absolutely agree with your concept. With all that I have been reading lately on the deteriorating print ad revenue nationwide, I get tempted to call some of the magazines I once ran ads in to ask them if they would consider a rev share on sales...in the old days very few to none would consider such a proposition however, things may be changing... Anyway, I'm a web guy now and paying for performance is what it is all about. Let me know if I can be of help in your TV Ears efforts.

Hi David!

Hope all is well my friend. Wanted to see if we could grab lunch or something next week to chat about PR strategy for the consulting business I am building.

Shoot me an email at mwitt13@gmail.com.

Cheers,

Morgan
