Introducing #PRstack

3 | 15.03.2016

#PRtoolbox

This is a public relations planning exercise using data and tools to identify a public (or audience to use marketing speak) and insights to influence behavioural change.

I’ve used free or low-cost tools to enable you to experiment with the process and methodology.

Free or low cost tools are never as sophisticated or robust as commercial tools and there is no guarantee of the quality of the output or continuity of service.

There is no such thing as free.
