There will be exceptions, however, and WE will initiate those conversations where required. But our experience to date has been that PR agency folk don’t generally make life easier for us, and that’s precisely what we want and expect. So since time is arguably the most precious commodity (is that a contradiction in terms?), we can’t afford to waste it with those who take neither the time to understand what we do or try to bring us something useful.

Don’t get us wrong. We can see why companies employ PR agencies. And we have the utmost respect for the profession, particularly the way it is evangelized by the likes of Shel Holtz and Neville Hobson on For Immediate Release (one of our must-listen podcasts). See, there’s a couple of PR guys doing something really useful.

Comments are open in case anyone wants to chime in (UPDATE: now closed for spam prevention).
