DESCRIPTION
Whether you’re a blogger or brand manager, a journalist or comms consultant, wine producer or content creator, we all need to look in the mirror regularly and ask: am I looking good? Is my brand image all that it should be? This group will examine PR and how it can help or hinder. We are all brand managers. Because everything you do is part of building Brand You. This presentation is copywritten and owned by Richard Siddle

Most exciting time since Printing Press
Most exciting time in communications
• Days when newspapers and magazines decided what your read and when are over
• Digital news and information is constantly changing, open to all, where no-one is in charge
• Never had so much opportunity, ability to communicate
• But New World is just return to Old World. A world before print. A world of word of mouth…
Readers: no longer just an audience
Join in…take part…set the agenda
Audience now tells the news
It is not as easy as A…B…C…
A master in wine, but not in writing
• Just because you know about wine does not mean you can communicate about it
• World of wine does not need any more wine specialists
• It needs people who can communicate about it• It needs people who know about PR• PR can help you tell the story you have
Have you the right skills to be heard?
Mirror, mirror on the wall…
How to stand out from the crowd
“SHOW US A SIGN…ANY SIGN!?”
How to stand out from the crowd• You have to know how to “sell” your story. How to use PR
• 80% of stories in press are from press releases/wires/
• Only 12% is original research
• But majority of press releases are deleted. No story.
• Not what you say but how you say it
• Winery invests in a new water plant. Not a story
• Winery’s new water plant provides water for local community. Good story
What makes you special?• One thing being a specialist • How you tell your story
• Analyse your user traffic/Google analytics
• Go where your audience wants you to go
• To be heard you have to be a DIGITAL SPECIALIST
Digital Future:Old and New Worlds working together
• Journalism working with audience/users/blogs• “Audience” using journalism to tell their story• Blogs yes. But live blogging from events• Video yes. Video diary from wine trip/vintage• Vintage news. Live data feed of harvest• WE ARE ALL IN THIS TOGETHER
