Public Relations and Facebook Strategies for REALTORSMaura Neill
It’s a little-known fact and a rarely-practiced strategy, but you can be your own public relations advocate. Whether you are a solo agent or you have a team and can delegate the task, there are a few simple steps you can take to connect with the press and become a media superstar. You don’t have to spend thousands to hire a public relations firm to have contacts in the press, and you don’t have to become a relentless self-promoter. You just have to have the right tools in your arsenal and know how to use them.
Public relations is an essential part of marketing, but if you've never approached or worked with a journalist before, it could be a little intimidating. Where do you start? Who do you reach out to? What should you say?
Thankfully, PR isn't rocket science. But it does take planning and commitment. Because PR coverage is earned, not paid, you have to be extra careful and strategic about who to pitch and how to work with the press.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

2. WHAT IS A “PRESS RELEASE?”
• A PRESS RELEASE IS A STORY SUBMITTED TO LOCAL MEDIA
OUTLETS
• PRESS RELEASES ARE INTENDED TO CREATE POSITIVE PUBLICITY
FOR THE ORGANIZATION THAT THEY DESCRIBE
• MANY STORIES THAT YOU READ IN THE NEWSPAPER ARE PRESS
RELEASES THAT HAVE BEEN PUBLISHED. THIS GUIDE WILL SHOW
YOUR CHAPTER HOW TO EARN A SPOT IN THE NEWSPAPER!
3. WHY CREATE PRESS RELEASES?
• RAISE AWARENESS OF YOUR CHAPTER’S
ACCOMPLISHMENTS
• CREATE BRAND FAMILIARITY: WHEN PEOPLE ARE
LOOKING FOR A CLUB OR ORGANIZATION TO JOIN ON
CAMPUS, THEY ARE MORE LIKELY TO GO WITH AN
ORGANIZATION THEY RECOGNIZE
• GENERATE SUPPORT FOR DECA AT YOUR SCHOOL.
PEOPLE ARE MORE LIKELY TO SUPPORT SOMETHING THEY
KNOW MORE ABOUT!
• TAKE CREDIT FOR THE HARD WORK OF YOUR CHAPTER
THROUGHOUT THE YEAR
4. PLAN FOR A SUCCESSFUL YEAR OF PRESS
RELEASES BY FOLLOWING THESE FIVE STEPS!
STEP #1: DETERMINE WHAT IS “PUBLICITY WORTHY”
STEP #2: DETERMINE WHO TO CONTACT
STEP #3: WRITE THE PRESS RELEASE
STEP #4: DISTRIBUTE PRESS RELEASES
STEP #5: FOLLOW-UP
5. STE P #1 : DE TE RMI N E WHAT I S
“PUBLI CI TY -WORTHY ”
• THI S STEP A DDRESSED THE QUESTI ON OF, “WHA T SHOULD I CREA TE A
PRESS RELEA SE FOR?” IT IS IMPORTANT THAT THIS QUESTION IS ADDRESSED.
PUBLISHERS WILL ONLY PUBLISH STORIES THAT THEY FIND INTERESTING OR
IMPORTANT
• “PUBLICITY-WORTHY TOPICS” INCLUDE: DECA WEEK ACTIVITIES, CHAPTER
ACTIVITIES, FUNDRAISING PROJECTS, CHAPTER CAMPAIGNS, BUSINESS
PARTNERSHIPS, COMMUNITY SERVICE, DECA COMPETITIONS, ACADEMIC
HONORS (SCHOLARSHIPS, COLLEGE ACCEPTANCE, ETC.), GUEST SPEAKERS,
AND CHAPTER ACCOMPLISHMENTS.
• UNSURE IF SOMETHING IS “PUBLICITY-WORTHY?” ASK YOUR ADVISOR, FELLOW
MEMBERS, OR YOUR PARENTS!
6. Be the Best!
Before the year starts, make
a list of “publicity -worthy” events
that your chapter will be participating
in this year!
By planning out what your chapter will
publicize in advance, your chapter will have
more time to plan press releases for these
events.
7. STEP #2: DETERMINE WHO TO
CONTACT
• SEND PRESS RELEASES TO THE FOLLOWING FROM YOUR SCHOOL:
SCHOOL PAPER, SCHOOL ADMINISTRATORS, GUIDANCE COUNCILORS,
AND SCHOOL BOARD
• SEND PRESS RELEASE TO THE FOLLOWING FROM YOUR COMMUNITY:
LOCAL PAPER, LOCAL NEWS, LOCAL RADIO, WEBSITES THAT PUBLISH
LOCAL NEWS, CHAMBER OF COMMERCE, BUSINESSES THAT HAVE
PARTNERED WITH YOUR DECA CHAPTER, PROFESSIONAL DECA
MEMBERS, AND YOUR STATE OFFICERS
• MANY OF THESE OUTLETS ARE NOT CAPABLE OF “PUBLISHING” A PRESS
RELEASE, HOWEVER, THE GOAL OF PRESS RELEASES IS NOT ONLY TO BE
PUBLISHED, BUT ALSO TO GENERATE AWARENESS BY SENDING PRESS
RELEASES TO THESE OUTLETS
8. Be the Best!
The people your chapter sends
press releases to throughout the
year will not change very much. It is
helpful to assemble a contact list of these
media outlets to make future press releases
easier.
Use the “Contact List for Press Releases
Template” to help make a contact list!
9. STE P #3 : WRI TE THE PRE SS RE LE ASE
VISIT THE CALIFORNIA DECA WEBSITE AND DOWNLOAD THE PRESS RELEASE
TEMPLATE THAT FITS YOUR TOPIC THE BEST!
CALIFORNIA DECA’S “PRESS RELEASE TEMPLATE FOR CHAPTER
ACCOMPLISHMENTS” IS THE MOST BROAD TEMPLATE! USE THIS TEMPLATE FOR
TOPICS THAT DON’T FIT WITH ANY OF THE OTHER TEMPLATES.
TIP #1: ANSWER WHO, WHAT, WHERE, WHEN, WHY, AND HOW IN YOUR FIRST
PARAGRAPH
TIP #2: YOUR PRESS RELEASE SHOULD BE NO MORE THAN THREE PARAGRAPHS.
INCLUDE THE MOST IMPORTANT FACTS IN YOUR FIRST PARAGRAPH BECAUSE
SOMETIMES THAT IS THE ONLY THING YOUR RECIPIENT WILL PUBLISH
TIP #3: KNOW YOUR AUDIENCE. YOUR AUDIENCE PROBABLY WON’T UNDERSTAND
WHAT A ROLE-PLAY IS.
10. STE P #4 : DI STRI BUTE PRE SS RE LE ASE S
• REFER TO STEP ONE. DURI NG STEP ONE, WE DI SCUSSED WHO PRESS
RELEASES SHOULD BE SENT TO
• I T I S ESSENTIAL THA T PRESS RELEA SES A RE DI STRIBUTED WI THI N TWO W EEK
OF THE EVENT THA T THE PRESS RELEA SE DESCRIBES. WI THI N ONE WEEK IS
IDEAL.
• DELIVER Y OUR PRESS RELEA SES ON A SCHOOL OR DECA LETTERHEAD.
Y OU CA N USE THE CA LIFORNIA DECA LETTERHEAD THA T I S A T THE TOP OF
M OST CHA PTER RESOURCE DOCUM ENTS.
• M OST M EDIA OUTLETS HA VE A PREFERRED FORM OF SUBM I SSION I .E.
EMAIL/FAX/MAIL. DETERMINE WHA T THI S I S FOR EA CH M EDIA OUTLET
A ND M A KE NOTE OF I T SO Y OU DON’T HA VE TO A SK M ULTI PLE
TIMES
11. STEP #5: FOLLOW-UP
• IT IS IMPORTANT THAT YOUR CHAPTER FOLLOWS UP WITH ANYONE WHO THEY
DISTRIBUTE A PRESS RELEASE TO, IF THE MEDIA OUTLET IS CAPABLE OF PUBLISHING
THE STORY (THAT MEANS IT IS NOT ESSENTIAL TO FOLLOW-UP WITH
ADMINISTRATORS, PROFESSIONAL MEMBERS, ETC.)
• FOLLOW-UP TWO TIMES.
• THE FIRST TIME FOLLOW-UP TO ENSURE THAT THE MEDIA OUTLET HAS RECEIVED
YOUR PRESS RELEASE AND INQUIRE IF THEY HAVE ANY QUESTIONS. ALSO, ASK IF
THEY PLAN ON PUBLISHING YOUR STORY. IF THEY PLAN ON IT, ASK WHEN THEY
PLAN ON PUBLISHING IT.
• FOLLOW-UP A SECOND TIME IF YOUR STORY IS NOT PUBLISHED BY THE TIME YOU
WERE TOLD IT WOULD BE
12. ADDI TI ONAL N OTE S
• SEND YOUR CHAPTERS PRESS RELEASES TO YOUR STATE OFFICERS IN ORDER
TO GET RECOGNITION ON THE STATE LEVEL!
• NOT SURE WHAT OFFICER SHOULD HANDLE PRESS RELEASES? THIS JOB IS
TYPICALLY HANDLED BY ANY OF THE FOLLOWING POSITIONS, WITH THE
POSITIONS LISTED FIRST THE MOST LIKELY: PUBLIC RELATIONS,
COMMUNICATIONS, HISTORIAN, VICE PRESIDENT, PRESIDENT
• ESTABLISH A CORDIAL RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN DECA AND LOCAL PRESS
OUTLETS BECAUSE YOUR CHAPTER WILL HAVE TO WORK WITH THEM FOR THE
REST OF THIS YEAR AND HOPEFULLY MANY MORE YEARS TO COME!
• MAKE SURE THE MEDIA OUTLETS YOUR CHAPTER CHOOSES ARE APPROPRIATE.
A NEWSPAPER SUCH AS THE WALL STREET JOURNAL DOES NOT BELONG ON
YOUR LIST. IT IS HIGHLY UNLIKELY THAT THEY WILL AIR YOUR STORY. LOCAL
NEWSPAPERS, HOWEVER, ARE A GREAT CHOICE!
