[...] “The Blogos Are Right. Tech PR Must DIE!” Jump to Comments It’s been a rough week for PR peeps. The blogos are right, tech PR is losing the fight. What do you say we kill off all our bad practices and start anew? By confessing all of our sins, maybe we can set them free and finally move on!

Chris,

Confronted this week with n to the n PR pitches I concur with much of the above. The thing is.. as a blogger I now often get introduced / direct access to the CEO. These relationships on the phone are sometimes easy and otherwise… well I don’t really know them, so much easier to meet them in person.

I have the same problem with many PR reps. I don’t know them face to face. I may not be ready to just add them on facebook. I don’t want their notes in my stream etc.

I had a session yesterday.. via video conference. I have a suspicion that video conferencing could make all these exchanges many times more productive.

It’s more personal. Both parties are closer to reading each other. I’m willing to bet that you get better feedback.
