Public Relations, Media & Training

There are numerous external factors that will have an impact on your business success!

All too often we hear “but these are beyond our control!”

If you really understand Public Relations and are open to how best to engage media and train your people to embrace both the media and public relations concepts; you will quickly realise that far from being outside your control, you will be able to influence and navigate everything your business will encounter.

Our PR, Media and Training Services are as follows:

Public Relations:

Every company has a story – what’s yours?

This is a strategic service where our experts will review your brand, your culture and aspirations. With you and your management we will build the public perception of your company. We will look then at any external factors or stakeholders that are or may be positively or negatively influenced by what your business is aiming to be.

Action plans will then be developed and implemented to ensure your business can successfully position itself for who it wants to be and how it wants to succeed.

Media:

The media is a communications vehicle. When you have a PR strategy in place, the media will become one vehicle for driving your business outcomes.

Macrison will engage and monitor the media on your behalf. We will recommend media options and prepare communications for the media on your behalf.

Training:

There are three levels of training in our PR service.

a) Internal Training.

To build your company story everyone of your employees has to live the story. Each time they engage with an external stakeholder, be that a customer, the media, government officials or other, they must demonstrate consistently your company values, and story. This reinforces trust and credibility in how people view your business.
