Putting the Public Back in Public Relations. How social media<\/a> is reinventing the aging business of PR. Brian Solis<\/a> & Deirdre Breakenridge<\/a>.\u00a0 2009. ISBN 9780137150694.\u00a0 The two authors have served their time as PR pros and have written a very definitive book on how to meld PR with the social media to create\u00a0 much stronger\u00a0 customer\/reader conversation.\u00a0 From mentions of the beginning pof PR in 1906 through to the most recent innovations this is a very good book. It makes good use of case studies, examples and market truths. As well it is a good easy read.\u00a0 I especially enjoyed the very thorough treatment of metrics which show numerous ways to bring ROI to the social media space as well as accountability to PR.\u00a0 A must have book for your marketing dept. In our practise we stress teh effectiveness of good PR to your customers, investors, prospects and employees. It certainly beats out advertising on every level.<\/p>\n
