Healthcare Providers: Is 2019 the YearYou Hire a Public Relations Agency?

Watch Your Positive Reputation Blossom

Perhaps you are a healthcare provider who’s been thinking about hiring a public relations (PR) agency in the new year.

For first timers, it can be a big step filled with mystery and the perpetual fear of wasting precious budget dollars.

Even experienced leaders who have bottom line responsibility for hiring professional services firms know that without a deliberate strategy and articulated desired outcomes, measuring success can be tricky or worse, murky.

The PESO Media Model

By now most professional communicators have had some exposure to the PESO media model – Paid. Earned. Shared. Owned.
You may be wondering which part of PESO is public relations?

The answer is all four, the P, the E, the S and the O, however, traditionally PR firms have focused on delivering earned media (what used to be referred to as publicity) and SPRYTE Communications is no exception. But as time goes on and we evolve with our industry, we welcome the blurring of the lines.

Here are Tactics SPRYTE would like to continue delivering to clients in 2019:
