Learning the “secret knock” to the door of opportunity is key when dealing with today’s news media. Check out this brief presentation to learn tips and strategies to get the most out of your interview opportunities. Contact us to schedule your media training or to learn ways to make your Slideshare presentation more effective.
What do we do?
We help our clients become better communicators for all media opportunities. We find out our clients' needs, create a specific series of videotaped exercises and simulated TV/media interview situations and then practice with you until you are comfortable with your performance.
What is your approach to Media Training?
Our approach is to treat each person based on his or her needs and their business environment, and not use some ready-made format workshop. (We ask that all clients fill out a needs assessment beforehand to help us better prepare for the training session.) Every training session is unique to the person or persons trained. The one constant in every training session is that the client spends a great deal of time in front of the camera being recorded during interview situations, and then watching the performances on instant playback with critiques.
The aim of this media training is to provide participants with the knowledge and practice of media interviews and other work with journalists.
These materials come from our 1-day media training workshops that we organise in Brussels and across Europe.
The content includes:
How to ensure understanding of how the media works particularly in Brussels
How to build the ability of managers and spokespeople to communicate confidently when communicating with the media
How to prepare for all types of media interview (policy related, issues or crisis related)
Communicate messages effectively
Make the best impression and feel comfortable in front of journalists
Deal with contentious, sensitive issues and keep interviews focused
Manage difficult questions under pressure
Speaking to reporters can be daunting, even for CEOs and founders who've done it dozens of times. Each interview takes a certain amount of preparation and practice to make sure your messaging is on point for a given reporter's beat and area of interest.
But, with a little preparation and some practice scenarios, even the most timid among us can be become experts are briefing the press.
To get started, take a look at Media Training 101.

Why do bad interviews happen to good people? The reason behind that - bad prep work by PR folks who are missing the mark when it comes to media training. The second part to this is the willingness of the spokesperson to take the time to brief, research, and prepare. Media training isn't about just going over the dos and don'ts of media interviews but it's about understanding your key messages, delivery, authenticity, and knowing your audience.

Step-by-Step Guides to Strategic Media Relations by Hoem SeihaHoem Seiha
The primary goal of Media Relations is to garner positive publicity for an organization’s mission, policies, and practices.
Media relations refers to the connection between an organization and journalists.
Public relations extends beyond the media to the general public.
The role of media has become one way of trading and marketing of products and prejudices. The media claimed to be governed by righteousness and equity, but greed and self-aggrandizement has poisoned its virtues. Media is in charge of major roles in providing :
information
education and advocacy
entertainment
advertising
correlation of parts of society
Alex Greenwood PR Presentation - New DesignAl Bonner
I was privileged to have an opportunity to help Alex Greenwood redesign his Public Relations training presentation. This is the redesigned or "after" version.
About the Guide:
Anyone who listens to the Today programme or watches Newsnight, and has heard respected and articulate business leaders and politicians being grilled by the likes of John Humphrys or Jeremy Paxman, could be forgiven for feeling uneasy about being interviewed by a journalist. Successful media interviews, and positive media coverage, are not a matter of luck. Good preparation can make the difference between a confident, informed and articulate media performance, which presents your company in the best light, makes a good impression on the journalist and results in some sparkling copy or air-time – or a hesitant, tentative and ill-informed approach where the journalist fails to get the material they need and coverage is either negative or non-existent.
If you’re going to spend time and money marketing your organisation, it will pay dividends to prepare in advance what you plan to say and how you deal with the press – especially in a crisis.

Memorandum Of Association Constitution of Company.pptseri bangash
www.seribangash.com
A Memorandum of Association (MOA) is a legal document that outlines the fundamental principles and objectives upon which a company operates. It serves as the company's charter or constitution and defines the scope of its activities. Here's a detailed note on the MOA:
Contents of Memorandum of Association:
Name Clause: This clause states the name of the company, which should end with words like "Limited" or "Ltd." for a public limited company and "Private Limited" or "Pvt. Ltd." for a private limited company.
https://seribangash.com/article-of-association-is-legal-doc-of-company/
Registered Office Clause: It specifies the location where the company's registered office is situated. This office is where all official communications and notices are sent.
Objective Clause: This clause delineates the main objectives for which the company is formed. It's important to define these objectives clearly, as the company cannot undertake activities beyond those mentioned in this clause.
www.seribangash.com
Liability Clause: It outlines the extent of liability of the company's members. In the case of companies limited by shares, the liability of members is limited to the amount unpaid on their shares. For companies limited by guarantee, members' liability is limited to the amount they undertake to contribute if the company is wound up.
https://seribangash.com/promotors-is-person-conceived-formation-company/
Capital Clause: This clause specifies the authorized capital of the company, i.e., the maximum amount of share capital the company is authorized to issue. It also mentions the division of this capital into shares and their respective nominal value.
Association Clause: It simply states that the subscribers wish to form a company and agree to become members of it, in accordance with the terms of the MOA.
Importance of Memorandum of Association:
Legal Requirement: The MOA is a legal requirement for the formation of a company. It must be filed with the Registrar of Companies during the incorporation process.
Constitutional Document: It serves as the company's constitutional document, defining its scope, powers, and limitations.
Protection of Members: It protects the interests of the company's members by clearly defining the objectives and limiting their liability.
External Communication: It provides clarity to external parties, such as investors, creditors, and regulatory authorities, regarding the company's objectives and powers.
https://seribangash.com/difference-public-and-private-company-law/
Binding Authority: The company and its members are bound by the provisions of the MOA. Any action taken beyond its scope may be considered ultra vires (beyond the powers) of the company and therefore void.
Amendment of MOA:
While the MOA lays down the company's fundamental principles, it is not entirely immutable. It can be amended, but only under specific circumstances and in compliance with legal procedures. Amendments typically require shareholder

51. Remember:
Advertising can raise awareness, but
good public relations can earn
credibility.
(Instead of buying an ad and saying
how great you are, you have a
newspaper implying it--if you manage
to tell your story correctly.)
80. Watch out for the “Is there anything I
forgot to ask?” ask. This can lead to
inadvertent introduction of negatives
or temptation to be funny.
81. Short-sheet the reporter.
Leave a page of clear, easy to read
facts, bullet points and references for
them to use later when putting their
story together. This can also be a PDF
online--but make sure you print a
copy and give it to the reporter.
Leave nothing to chance.
83. Never ask the reporter to
“approve” their story. This is tacky
and makes you look bush league.
84. Don’t assume it’s
over until you’re out
of the room.
Everything you say is on the record--
including follow-up calls to verify
information.
Don’t say something “juicy” and expect the
reporter not to use it.
87. Check out our
“Beyond the
Basics”
Seminar

with tips on what to do when
things go wrong, crisis
communications strategies and

20 Years Experience in News Media, Public Relations & Marketing
Public relations is a profession that ethically identifies, develops and creates strategies to communicate the key messages of the client.
Propaganda
Advertising
Marketing
Writers/Editors
Spokespersons
Speechwriters
Strategic Planners
Media Relations Experts
News is timely and relevant info
Often contains conflict and drama
Consists of notable/unusual happenings
Is of general interest to a particular audience
A scoop
Newspapers
Magazines
Trade Publications
Local Television News
National Television News
Radio News/Talk shows
Online News Website
Web Blogs -- Blogs
Podcasts
Inform their audience
Create a compelling story
Sell publication/story
Act as a catlyst for change
Write first draft of history
Bring together consumers and producers
I cover TV interviews, radio, etc. in the Full Monty.
Some may say that “Marketing pays for placement, PR positions for placement.”
Ask the reporter what their “angle” is for the story.
Hold your horses.
Prep with your PR person or project team.
Brainstorm.
Identify THREE key message points.
Questions anticipated.
Questions you hope to get.
Hold your horses
Brainstorm
Identify 3 Key message points
Also ask if they are on deadline. If they are 10 minutes from deadline, you still need time to prepare, so tell them you will call back in 5. Don’t get caught off guard.
Key message points should be clear, strong and positive. Work them into every answer to every question possible. Use everyday words. NO LINGO. Even if the reporter seems to understand what your jargon/lingo is, their audience probably doesn’t. Exception: trade publications.
Also ask if they are on deadline. If they are 10 minutes from deadline, you still need time to prepare, so tell them you will call back in 5. Don’t get caught off guard.

Interviews are like a dance someone has to lead” “Do you have any questions for my answers?” Using examples analogous to everyday life is very effective. Ask yourself...if you were reading this story what would you say that would answer “What’s in it for me?” Find ways to bridge the reporter’s question back to one of your three key messages. Example: “Do you believe sustainable architecture is worth the financial costs?” You could answer” “The real issue, Dave, is quality of life. Sustainability for people like the folks in Greensboro is more than just rebuilding their town, it’s about giving them a community worth of their will to rebuild. You can’t put a price on that.”
Sizzle, not steak.
Humor is good, but be careful.
Absolutes, action words and analogies are absolutely good ideas.
If the cliche’ ain’t broke...
Keep the hyperbole to a minimum.
They already have the facts, usually. They look to you for the human factor.
Analogies: “Men are like buses, there’s always another one coming along.” or “Life is like a box of chocolates.”
Cliche’s work-- “If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.”
Action words: destroy, decimated, accelerating, swatting, etc. Use only when it truly enhances your key points.
Absolutes work: “Read my lips, no new taxes!”
“Go ahead, make my day,”
Watch out for exaggerations. “80,000 people here at Riverfest!”
Also remember--the closing thing you will get to controlling an interview is having good information and juicy soundbites. I have been in situations where a good soundbite has changed the tenor of an interview. Nurisng home--”We are terribly worried about him and appreciate you helping us get the word out to the public so they may help us find him.”
Humor is good, but be careful
The other ‘P’ was Prepared, as in Be Prepared, remember?
Now back to our newspaper interview...
Look your best. That includes personal hygiene and grooming.
Make the interview site is presentable with few distractions.
A dirty office is a distraction. Unruly people nearby is also a bad distraction.
It’s tougher to write bad things about nice people.
The reporter has a job to do, and so do you.
Avoid “off the record” remarks.
Brevity is the mother of great coverage.
Get those sound bites in!
Avoid “off the record” remarks.
A brief interview is a good thing.
Watch out for the “Is there anything I forgot to ask?” ask.
Short-sheet the reporter.
Don’t ask the reporter if you can approve the story before it is published.
Don’t assume that because you’re walking to the door, the interview is over.
Jimmy Carter made this mistake--PLAYBOY INTERVIEW: In an interview published in the November 1976 issue of Playboy magazine, then-Governor Carter talked about the role of religion in his life. It was the last of several interviews, and as he walked the reporter to the door he said:
" I try not to commit a deliberate sin. I recognize that I'm going to do it anyhow, because I'm human and I'm tempted. And Christ set some almost impossible standards for us. Christ said, 'I tell you that anyone who looks on a woman with lust has in his heart already committed adultery.'
"I've looked on a lot of women with lust. I've committed adultery in my heart many times. This is something that God recognizes I will do--and I have done it--and God forgives me for it."
He went down 17 points in the polls.
Never threaten. Call the reporter first. Editors are reasonable when you are.
If you want to learn more, including in-depth scenarios and training...you’ll want The Full Monty. It’s a great movie, too.
