Blurred Lines: Marketing Vs. Public Relations

The lines that previously defined traditional business silos such as sales, marketing, PR, and customer support have become blurred thanks to the digital marketplace. Digital and social media has elevated the role of the customer in the operations of a business, which has become a disruptive force within the today’s organizations. The reality of direct, one-to-one brand-consumer communications has changed the job description and role of many departments in the enterprise. Marketing is more responsible for sales and customer service than ever before and customer service is now a significant player in the corporation’s branding and sales efforts. Public relations is experiencing a renaissance of sorts with a more prominent voice in marketing, and especially social media marketing.

This debate, moderated by Sam Fiorella, pits Chris Heuer, President and CEO of Adhocnium against Bryan Kramer, President/CEO of Pure Matter in a debate over the roles of Marketing and Public Relations in modern enterprises. Which department should take the lead – and budget control – over social media marketing?

Why You Don't Need A Content Strategy
The content marketing that got you to where you are today isn’t likely to get you to where you need to be tomorrow. As more and more brands are generating content for marketing purposes, the most competitive brands are truly becoming more than just marketers, they’re becoming media publishers in their own right. What those brands (and you!) will soon discover is this: making the leap to media publisher means thinking like the media, not like a content marketer. And if you want to keep up, you’ll need to understand that media strategy doesn’t begin with content strategy.

Session presenter Tom Webster has two decades’ worth of experience consulting media brands and platforms on audience growth and content programming, and he’ll bring that perspective to intermediate and advanced content marketers looking to compete in an increasingly crowded environment for content.

You'll Walk Away From This Session Knowing:
  • Why starting with content strategy won’t cut it
  • The strategy you need to develop BEFORE you craft a content strategy
  • How to craft that strategy, and the steps you’ll need to take
