content; online, that’s mainly banners and video ads.
• Owned media is brand-created content, such as
brand websites, e-mail marketing to opt-in recipients,
brand-created fan pages and branded content (mainly
videos or sponsored sites).
• Earned media is getting someone else to provide
content about a brand. This includes traditional
public relations and word-of-mouth, as well as
much of social media marketing.

All around the world traditional print media are shrinking and migrating online.
Web 2.0 technologies are allowing anyone who has an idea or an opinion to
become a journalist or easily share others’ opinions with friends and peers. In
this context every company (whether B2B, B2C or B2G) has the opportunity to
become a publisher, reaching its stakeholders directly.

press releases, blogs, tweets, presentations and marketing materials.
Yet some people at Intel started hankering for something more, largely
in response to a perception that a diminishing number of news outlets
have the personnel, time or space to take on many technology topics
in depth.”

36. VISUAL CONTENT
Develop basic visual content—video,
animation, slide deck or infographic—and
allow other departments to tailor it by:
– adding their own voiceover
– toning down sales-y language,
adding more neutral language
(for editorial pickup)

37. DIGITAL ASSETS
Just as PR provides b-roll to TV stations, so it
should provide digital assets (video clips, data sets
or ready-made infogs) to reporters and bloggers.
– Video assets can’t be longer than 90 seconds or busy
journalists will not sit through the process of
evaluating them.
– To maximize the production costs, PR should shape
the digital assets as “explainer/how-to”
or “fun facts to know and tell.” When you do
that, PR results increase.
