The Evolution of Digital PR

Can digital PR platforms truly transform your business? Tune in to uncover how the evolution of these platforms, starting with Peter Shankman"s pioneering HARO, has reshaped the landscape for design professionals seeking press coverage. You"ll gain insights into Shankman"s latest venture, Source of Sources (SOS), which aims to rekindle HARO"s original accessibility. As we navigate this transformative PR terrain, we also address the pivotal role of AI, cautioning against over-reliance on shortcuts that promise effortless media placements without the requisite effort.
