I am a student doing a Bachelor of communications in New Zealand, and I am really enjoying your views on P.R and especially your views on social media. P.R is certainly an exciting profession as it is all about people and relationships. Social media highlights the fact that people just want to connect.

I want to know if you ever come to New Zealand to speak, and if you do when will you be here next?
I would be more than happy to show you around!

Cheers
from a budding P.R enthusiast and future practitioner

My favorite part is how social media "makes the world a smaller place". Its a thought I've been playing around with for awhile now. A lot of people refer in articles/posts to social media being revolutionary and causing people and businesses to rethink everything. I'm not sure this is the right way to put it. Back in the 40's and 50's, businesses were successful because of reputation. A reputation that was earned by being a part of their community. They were active members of their churches, social organizations, were great neighbors, etc. I think, as you accurately wrote, social media has allowed us to have communities from around the world, not just in our neighborhood. But you don't need to "rethink" how things are done. Businesses/people should still place the same emphasis on principles of being an active, responsible member of your community as they always have.

Brian,

Love this article. My favorite part is how social media “makes the world a smaller place”. Its a thought I've been playing around with for awhile now. A lot of people refer in articles/posts to social media being revolutionary and causing people and businesses to rethink everything. I'm not sure this is the right way to put it. Back in the 40's and 50's, businesses were successful because of reputation. A reputation that was earned by being a part of their community. They were active members of their churches, social organizations, were great neighbors, etc. I think, as you accurately wrote, social media has allowed us to have communities from around the world, not just in our neighborhood. But you don't need to “rethink” how things are done. Businesses/people should still place the same emphasis on principles of being an active, responsible member of your community as they always have. You just use different tools.

So in a way, social media is re-emphasizing principles that have been around for decades, but are principles that coporations and some individuals had gotten away from.

Your thoughts?

Blog can be a daunting task to those who are tired of doing 5 - 10 sentences to promote products and services. However social medias such as facebook, twitter, etc directs traffic to your blogpage by interconnecting your blog pages to the social medias you are using.

Social media is such an important tool in communications, but it comes with a lot of responsibility. The relationships forged through social media should be taken just a seriously as the relationships we build in person. I think the key to tapping into social media's true capabilities is collaboration. Collaborating with the consumer in new and interesting ways using social media is where the future lies. This is such an interesting and exciting time to be in the communications field. Great article! Social media is such an important tool in communications, but it comes with a lot of responsibility.

And with that comes a great deal of work and responsibility. We used to just throw a message out into the world and hope the business came back. We are now compelled to build customer relationships on a personal basis. In the end, even though it will be more work, these tools should make us all respond better to feedback and become better communicators. The world just got a whole lot more interactive!

It's funny how we have also become a lot more connected. I was just musing earlier today how people in my Social Sphere are now taken more serious with the empowerment and development of Social Media. I see more main stream articles written not only digitaly, but also in print by people I know in the Social Space. I also hear them on NPR and other programs. So with more and more people and agencies realizing Social Media's value and empowerment, this really is the coolest time to watch what some of us do as a hobby, finally being taken serious by larger, older Media firms. Brian,
