Media RelationsAgency Sydney
While some brands have a unique offering that works well to promote via word of mouth, most often additional marketing and public relations (PR) activities are necessary to make your brand famous. For a PR agency, media relations is key to ensuring ongoing editorial and other media coverage. Whether you’re introducing new products, discussing initiatives, or promoting a new ambassador, media relations is the key aspect of a successful public relations campaign.
Editorial and other media coverage can contribute to brand awareness, brand sentiment, traffic, and sales. The benefit lies in the authenticity of the article. Whereas advertising or marketing pushes key messages directly and often has a ‘sell’ mentality, media coverage is often perceived as more authentic, with more subtle key messages worked into an article.
Media relations can involve press and media releases, events, press kits and more.

Identifying Your Audience
When conducting a media relations campaign, it’s first important to identify a brand's target demographic before recommending the media sector to target. This can be broken down into age, location, gender, income, interests, social media, etc. Be specific, as this ensures your brand messages are clear, concise and effective.
Defining Your Brand Message
Brand messages each need to address a key touchpoint of the consumer. Ensure they speak to your target audience, and include a call to action. The language used in media releases, social media posts, and other content needs to cater to the audience but also not alienate any potential customers outside your prescribed demographic.
