When economists and business people say the world is flat, they aren’t talking about concerns our ancestors had about sailing off the edge of the earth. Instead, “the world is flat” in a business context means that, thanks to rapid advances in technology and communication, entrepreneurs and companies are now part of a global […].

It’s fascinating when a company’s public relations gets ahead of its reality. Any strategic PR or marketing plan should emphasize an organization’s strengths and rebut weaknesses and threats, but there’s such a thing as too much hype. This is particularly true in the tech sector. Case in point: WeWork. The Gizmodo headline, “WeWork To Delay IPO Amid Suspicion It’s Not Actually A Tech Company Worth $47 Billion” sums it up nicely.

Did you stand in line for the release? Which version did you like? Did you get one before they sold out? Was it as good as they say? No, I’m not talking about the new iPhone. I’m talking about the Popeyes Chicken Sandwich , an unexpected PR master class. When Popeyes launched its sandwich on Aug. 12, the country took notice. Within days, the sandwich had stirred a fast-food fight with its own hashtag, generated a meme battle and had blogs and news organizations scrambling to post reviews.

Leaked internal communications can be strategically valuable assets rather than just risks to manage. When used proactively, these leaks can highlight leadership and innovation—qualities that resonate in today’s media. By approaching internal comms with a dual-purpose approach, companies shift from mere risk avoidance to leveraging these moments as credible public messages around strategy.

If you want action, add a ticking clock to the mix. Hollywood has been using that formula for years. Think of the bomb about to detonate ( Speed ), the person about to wake up ( Inception ), and the game about to end (every sports movie ever). Back to the Future wouldn’t have been much of a movie if Marty McFly could return the DeLorean to 1985 whenever he wanted.

There was a time when PR was associated with free publicity and marketing with paid advertising. That distinction has blurred since the popularity of the internet, especially social media. On the other hand, it depends upon whom you ask. For companies selling products or services, marketing, and public relations have the same goal of producing positive returns that result in increased business and profits.

Don’t Feed the Trolls is a primer on dealing with hate-filled online trolls published by the Center for Countering Digital Hate. It’s an important piece of work. Trolling is not a random activity. It’s a planned communication strategy used to attract attention to a cause. Its goal is to generate outrage, spread misinformation and attract followers.

Though autumn officially starts on Sept. 23, Starbucks rolled out its pumpkin spice latte this year on Aug. 27 — a day earlier than in 2018 and over a week earlier than in 2017. Given the popularity of the PSL, which Starbucks began serving in 2003, this trend makes sense. In 2015, Forbes estimated that the drink rakes in around $100 million over the course of a single autumn.

I didn’t set out to write a briefing on a martech product – I strive to reserve these efforts for PR technology – but it just sort of happened. A company called xiQ tweeted a link to something I had written, tagged me, and when I followed it back to the source, I found this newsletter. The concept struck me as something as a mix between Curata and Paper.li and I thought it could be a useful tool for content marketing.
