Chronological of PR Marketing
The Decline of Mass Marketing

• Media that reach individuals one at a time with personalized messages are growing efficiency and effectiveness.
The Growth of Consumer-Focused Marketing
• Uses variety of media to build relationships with individual consumers.
• Best known form is integrated marketing communications (IMC).

Integrated Marketing Communications (IMC)
Focus on individual consumers. Products are developed to fulfill consumers needs as well as sales messages target consumer self-interests
Use databases to store information on individual consumers; rather than on a mass audience. These databases contain a lots of information on individual consumers wants, needs and preferences

Three Pillars of IMC
Advertising: The use of controlled media in an attempt to influence the actions of targeted publics. A paid form of communication.
Marketing: The process of researching, creating, refining and promoting a products or services, and distributing the product or service to targeted consumers.
Public Relations: The values-driven management of relationships between an organization and the publics that can affect its success.

Advertising, marketing and PR follow the same process (research, planning, communication and evaluation)
Unlike marketing, PR focuses on many publics, not just the consumer. Unlike advertising, PR doesn’t control its messages by purchasing specific placement for them
Public Relations, Advertising and Marketing
“Not all advertising is marketing; nor is all public relations marketing”
The Impact of PR on Consumer-Focused Marketing
Public relations professionals always believed in breaking down publics into their smallest units, just as consumer-focused marketing does.
Good PR has always been two-way; the best practitioners have always listened, not just talked to their publics.
PR practitioners communicate with publics through media those public prefer; consumer-focused marketer do the same.
Sometimes an organization has to change to meet the needs of publics, just the same as consumer-focused marketing involves realizing that a product might need to change too.
Public Relations vs Marketing
Marketing focuses primarily on only one public (consumers) Public Relations focused on relationships with all public
essential to an organizations’ success PR and marketing are “separate and equal but related
functions”, and must work together toward achieving organizations goals.
