Content Strategies For Crossing Borders
Facts come and go, but stories connect minds and build markets. No matter what medium a story is told in, there must be a narrative link to ensure that everything
stays together and accrues to future stories. Connecting a company’s narrative to innovation,
business advantage and human impact will create an emotional and lasting relationship
between your customers and your brand, products and markets.

The Press Release is Dead Long Live the Press Release
• NOT about new media – it is about using media in news ways – (Dr Craig Lefebvre)
• We are in the midst of a communications sea-change as significant as the introduction of the printing press
• The press release is not, as has been suggested, dead, but the advent of social media means that it’s no longer the only game in town.
• There are new routes and channels through which dynamic, rich, multimedia messages can flow, which significantly enhance our ability to target the specific audiences we’re interested in.
