Long Term PR Strategies To Make More Money
Don’t start a PR campaign if you’re not willing to make a commitment. An effective campaign takes planning, time, and work. You need to mine your stories and use the media you garner to land more media. A truly effective PR campaign cannot be launched or realistically measured in two four or even six months. Once you do decide to move forward, begin with some clear specific objectives. Stating that you want media to bring in more clients, customers, or patients isn't good enough. Study your business plan. How can media placement help you meet your objectives? Do you want to increase your business by a third in one year? Do you want to open another store or branch? Do you want to take a product national? What are your long term goals? Without such goals, you have no way to measure the success of the campaign.
Keep your eye on the future. Remember, media placement is a long-term, cumulative
process. If you are only looking five weeks or even six months down the line, broaden your scope. Write down your short-term and long-term objectives. Where does media placement fit in? How can an effective media relations campaign help you achieve your objectives? Seek advice from others. But don't let someone else answer these questions for you. These are question only you can answer.
Finally, don't come up with a plan that has you appearing on Oprah, The Tonight Show, or in Time Magazine and The Wall Street Journal within the first two months of your campaign. That's not a plan, that's fantasy. One particular client we’ve worked with for several years has been featured in Time Newsweek, the New York Times, the Los Angeles Times, NPR and countless other media outlets, but these interviews did not come about overnight. They were part of a long term commitment to achieving her PR objectives. I can’t emphasize enough the importance of committing yourself to a campaign. If the client I referred to had stopped her campaign in two or three month’s time, she would never have been in Time or the Wall Street Journal and would never had known that her campaign was on the road to success. That indeed would have been a waste of time and money. Launching an effective PR campaign for your company is not a luxury, but a necessary powerful, key marketing tool. Think of it as being an integral part of your company’s long term marketing strategy.

Re: How do you budget your life?
- Here is my financial management categories for today:
15% Long Term Savings;
10% Home Expenses;
45% Business and Marketing charges;
10% Friends (Meeting);
20$ Scientific and Law Books.
But this will change when it is August or September.

Re: How do you budget your life?
- I agree that the Tithe 10% and Personal Long Term Savings 10% have been the most consistent percentages for me over the years.
The Richest Man in Babylon is a book that really helps nail that point. there's something subconcious about knowing that you're not just working to pay the bills. You're actually creating a long term quality lifestyle and significant retirement for you and your family.
The other percentages have shifted over the years but those number have been constant.

- Thanks for sharing this Evan, there are some very powerful quotes in there, I particularly like this one:-
You are now at a crossroads. This is your opportunity to make the most important decision you will ever make. Forget your past. Who are you now? Who have you decided you really are now? Don't think about who you have been. Who are you now? Who have you decided to become? Make this decision consciously. Make it carefully. Make it powerfully.

Re: Which would you start: a Blog or Online Community?
- It is a difficult decision to make.
Lets start it this way - What are you more interested in? Money? or Friends? or Both?
If its purely Money, then Blog might be an appropriate answer. But consider this - It will be people (visitors) that will bring traffic to your blog and then Money will follow. This will be possible after a time and during this time it will be your friends who will be the starters.
If you are looking for friends only, then its true that not many will be interested in knowing how you have beaten them in the game or the other way round. So it will be preferable to have a Forum where they can share ideas with you and others.
But you can share your insider knowledge with them and invite comments from your Blog. You can also put up information on what others (including your friends) don't know about Tennis. The blog you create can provide News, Inside Information and also Techniques that can be used by the new entrants in the world of Tennis.
