Media Relations: Go Beyond the Basics - Aline Lafreniere

Quote

"Telling a story or communicating a point of view to media is a special art… You have to know certain tricks of the trade that will help your issue stand out from the hundreds of other interesting things happening in the world"

 

 

Social marketing : Wrap-up - Craig Lefebvre

Quotes

"We can't really fix the problems, that's not what we do - we're not community developers out in local areas. We can help Canadians become more aware about what they can do, and how to do it with what supports and champions and networks."

"Until we move to next step of two-way communication, we can't be the 'champions'. It is part of building a community, moving from a health information resource to an online community."

- Who is most critical to success?
"

Social Marketing 101 - Craig Lefebvre

Quotes

"Get more sensitized to marketing around audiences and contributors, and marketing up and among stakeholders. It is a 360o view of the world."

"Regardless of what kind of marketing, we are still focused on telling stories."

"With new media it becomes more obvious that "receivers" (people formerly known as your audience) are talking to each other. With new media we can measure it, count through digital visits and exchange."
