Jude Habib presented tips for charities to maximize public relations opportunities on a shoestring budget. The presentation recommended that charities (1) comment on news articles and blogs to insert their messaging, (2) write blog posts and proactively pitch them to journalists, and (3) use social media tools to search for PR opportunities from TV shows, documentaries, and radio programs. It also suggested being prepared with multimedia materials like photos and having a plan to piggyback on larger news stories. The overall message was for charities to be more proactive in storytelling and seeking their own PR opportunities rather than waiting for media to come to them.
