Mastering Modern PR: Diversification, MarTech Mastery, and the Art of Storytelling?

Will these things be the future of PR? Diversification, Martech mastery... and storytelling? In this episode, I talk to Damian Frances, a journalist who studies PR and comms. Damian is also the Editorial Director of Mumbrella, the organisers of CommsCon 2023, the biggest PR-focused event in Australia. He invited The Public Relations Podcast along to the recent event in Sydney. Once the sessions were over, we sat down for a chat to discuss what we had heard. The conversation moved from fax machines and press clippings to modern strategies involving diversification and digital. We look at how the general mindset around marketing is likely to change. We look at PR and the problem of measurement with MarTech and how that will help but also talk about the problem of agreeing on measurement standards. And, we talk about this event and how it is helping to inspire people for the future of PR.
