2. What is Public Relations?
Public Relations (PR) is the practice of managing the
communication between an organization and its
public.
Public relations gains an organization or individual
exposure to their audiences using topics of public
interest and news items that do not require direct
payment.
Because public relations place exposure in credible
third-party outlets, they offer a third-party legitimacy
that advertising does not have.
Common activities include speaking at conferences,
working with the press, and employee
communication.
PR can be used to build rapport with employees,
customers, investors, voters, or the general public.
It is also called as PR.

3. What is Advertising?
Advertising is a form of communication used to influence
individuals or companies to purchase products or services or
support political candidates or ideas or image, recruit staff,
publicize an event, or to locate an item or commodity,
through any medium of public communication.
Advertising often attempts to persuade potential customers to
purchase or to consume a particular brand of product or
service. It communicates a message that includes the name of
the product or service and how that product or service could
potentially benefit the consumer.
The company pays for ad space. You know exactly when that
ad will be aired or published. You have creative control on
what goes into that ad. You can run your ads over and over for
as long as your budget allows.
Advertising media are newspapers, magazines, television and
radio, business publications, billboards, electronic mails, and
online banner ads.
There are two basic types of advertising, informative
advertising and persuasive advertising.

information from one entity to another.
Communication is the mainstay of businesses. It is

adversely affects the bottom line.
