Overview

The world of digital has completely changed the PR/Communications game in recent years. Audiences are more reliant on digital than ever before and are now using multiple devices and channels to get information about brands and who to trust. Add to that the AI revolution and the only thing that is constant is change.


So how do you adapt as a Communications Practitioner?
What most Comms/PR practitioners don’t realise is you already hold the keys to some of the most powerful levers in the online world – you just need to understand how to leverage them more in your every day to show the true value of your work. AI is set to change the game again in the coming years regarding how audiences get information so it’s imperative you understand the basics of Digital PR before things evolve even further.
Digital PR can have a huge impact on how you see, build and maintain a brand’s online reputation, visibility and trust. What’s more, Digital PR provides practitioners with the ability to create real, measurable results beyond traditional media column inches, sentiment and social media vanity metrics to show real PR outcomes.
