Public Relations Tip - Public Relations and
Your Take on Hurricane Katrina


Well - how do you personally handle this?

There are lots of so–called Public Relations mavens who give you
wonderful lists of ways to get yourself some public relations.

This article is NOT about their lists.

It IS about one of the items on their lists ... typically included as
“Do something for a local charity” ... or something to that effect.

I bet you glance over that like you do the other items on these lists.
Most people do this. They scan instead of stopping to consider ...

So this article is to encourage you do stop and consider.

It’s to get you to stop, think, and do ...

As with the recent Hurricane Katrina, you can follow lots of people's
advice and personally capitalize on the tragedies our citizens all
along the coast of Florida, Alabama, and Louisiana face -

... or not ...

Part of proper Public Relations and being a good citizen and
decent human being is to remember to always do the right thing
in every circumstance, regardless of your own personal gain. The
side benefit of this 'doing right' is that you can still gain recognition
and all the other benefits of excellent public relations ...

... and you can generate a reputation for doing good.

That's excellent public relations.

So - decide what you can do.

1. Can you actually go to the areas and physically help?

2. Can you make a donation to the Red Cross to help them?

3. Can you take up a collection and give it to your Church to
distribute in these damaged areas? Exactly what can you do?

Do SOMETHING!

As you sit comfortably in your air conditioning, close to your
refrigerator and bathroom that are still there - and that still work,
and you're able to make phone calls or get online whenever you
feel like it ... think of those who can't do this today and in the
following days.

Concentrate on this effort, and you'll be pleasantly surprised at the
positive, wonderful public relations you can achieve just by 'doing
good' today for someone else ...
