Talking about PR, Mr. Atul Malikram, founder of a leading Public Relations company says that, “PR sector is very vast. Having the support of PR is very essential for a company especially when it is going through a certain crisis. It takes years for a company to gain success but only a moment to ruin all of it. It is the PR who guides and leads a company out of its damage hole.”
Media at present has spread its roots all around the globe. News is exchanged in a blink of an eye from one place to another. When a brand faces negative publicity in one part of the country it spreads like wildfires to every part of the world. At that time it becomes very crucial to control its spread and take necessary measures to lessen the amount of damage that has caused. It is the PR that has the ability to supervise these threats sequentially. From dealing with the media and giving them the necessary information to re-building its reputation, PR acts as the backbone of the brand. You all have often heard the phrase- out of sight results in out of mind which is why PR strategies and counsels different plans to keep up the reputation of a brand in the market.
