How PR works for the property sector
Explained by co-founder Russell Quirk PR
How PR works for you
Understanding how PR works can sometimes feel like a bit of a mystery, but it needn’t. It’s an effective and creative way to make you or your business stand out from the crowd, and should never be underestimated.
When using an expert PR Agency which has the requisite knowledge of the market in which they operate, it becomes one of the most cost-effective ways to promote your property related business and position yourself as an industry expert. PR, done properly exposes your brand to the masses via third-party publications that by the very nature of their independence, validate that you are a credible organisation.
You could spend more and more marketing pounds on Google ads, Facebook targeting, radio, print ads, TV, and outdoor. This approach though is an expensive endeavour and the public are worldly-wise in knowing that paid ads, even the great ones, are contrived and 100% partisan. Consumer fatigue is another way of putting it. Negative ROI is another.
Any well-thought marketing strategy will include PR as a support to conventional marketing. But it’s my view that public relations are not just a support channel but a vital frontline tool, essential in gaining cut through, more traction, and in building natural search ranking defensibly. Especially as Google will simply take most of your money in Adwords costs.
Still wondering how PR works for the property sector? Check out our What is Public Relations Video which goes into further detail.
We know how PR works in the property industry!
Proper PR is an expert Property Public Relations Agency born from the great success that James and I achieved at Emoov – 2000+ pieces of press coverage in 2018 across all the main consumer publications and national newspapers online and in print, and received more media mentions in the Daily Mail and the Telegraph than a particular competitor whose main shareholders, DMGT and the Barclay Brothers, actually owned those publications. The total equivalent ad value of our endeavours was over £16m. The 78 radio appearances across the BBC, LBC and TalkRadio were a bonus, as were our slots on Sky News and ITV News. We know how PR works.
