Event series will focus on integrated, multi-platform communications skills
TORONTO, Sept. 25, 2015 /CNW/ - The communications evolution has pushed practitioners to leverage PR, advertising, marketing and social tactics in an integrated cross-platform approach; it's no longer simply a change in tools and technology. Communicators recognize and embrace this change, but many still struggle with finding strategies and tactics that will gain them the strongest success.
"It comes down to one thing and that's access," says Michael Pranikoff, Global Director, Emerging Media, PR Newswire. "People have more access to content now at their fingertips at any time of day than at any point in the history of mankind."
"The communications field is changing rapidly and PR people need to keep on top of the latest trends and tools to be sure they're taking advantage of the best opportunities to tell their stories," says Julia Oosterman, Director, Communications, Toronto Central Community Care Accress Centre.
For professionals in communications, PR and marketing working in a new media landscape, this means taking an integrated, transmedia approach to campaigns, leveraging all aspects of communications to gain the greatest advantage.
"Integrating paid media into your campaigns is easier than ever before and yields measurable results, which has a lot of people asking - is organic even worth it anymore?" says Gary Edgar, Managing Director, ruckus Digital. "It's confusing times for anyone working in communications because the digital landscape is complex and disciplines entwined."
CNW's Communications Evolution series is an inspiring, cross-country professional development event featuring speakers drawn from multiple disciplines across communications and marketing. Join us in Toronto on October 1, 2015 to learn how to integrate communications channels for maximum results.
