More about Discussion 1
Class, our first discussion this week focuses us on the topic of public relations, and how it can be used in a brand’s IMC.
As you consider this topic, please keep in mind that public relations (PR) encompasses a variety of tactics, some of which may be more fitting for a specific brand campaign than others. Also keep in mind that publicity is not the same thing as public relations; rather, publicity is one aspect of public relations. When it comes to integrating PR into a brand’s IMC, marketers typically will focus on marketing public relations (MPR) and publicity.
Discussion 2 Content Marketing
An increasing trend in marketing communications is to use “content marketing.” Discuss the components of content marketing described in the article by John Rampton (a Forbes Contributor) and in your own words how each component contributes to the integrated marketing communications (IMC). Support your position.
