Optimized press releases and related content may take days or weeks to appear in high relevant search results. Would you consider to utilize Google AdWords to get your message out? It will definitely help to spread your message out. But is it honest to you or does it sound too much like a trick? For whom is this kind of action? A marketeer, a PR pro or doesn’t it matter that much?

I was once (in 2000) voted as the best PR person in the hospitality industry by the Hospitality editor of Indian Express Newspaper in India. A highly satisfying and motivating recognition that, today, gives me the confidence to share some of MY tricks of the trade -

1. I try to be a good strategist and look at new avenues (even unprecedented) to get my company’s story or message out.

2. I have tried to develop a reputation of reliability and responsiveness in good turnaround time, even if sometimes the response is in the negative. I always try to respond and close the communication loop.

3. Employ lateral thinking and use varied, multi-level opportunities, some of which are freshly created, either in isolation or in sync with a co-worker.
