Exercise : What does this mean ?
39. 3rd Phase: Organising PR

- Setting out the road to capture the goals
- Clearly indicating what the main and secondary
objectives are
- Attracting the right people who are committed
and motivated to achieve the objectives.

….
41. Strategy (1)
Thinking in terms of strategy is at the
heart of public relations planning. In
the pure sense, a strategy is a plan
to use selected means in
predetermined ways to attain a
desired result. Strategic thinking
links the fact-finding phase to the
planning and programming (Cutlip,
Center en Broom)
42. Strategy (2)
Based on the Goals/directives
Orients/Determines the selection of
message(s), channel selection and
resource(s)
= How you want to achieve your goals
43. Strategy (3)
‘The overall concept, approach or
general plan’ (Cutlip, ea)
‘The coordinating theme or factor; the
guiding principle, or purpose; and
‘the big idea’; The rationale behind
the programme.’ (Tench and
Yeomans)
44. Strategy (4)
Strategy = dictated by
– The issues arising from the analysis of
the problem
– The foundation on which tactics are
build
– The positioning of the organisation
45. Positioning
= choices the management made in orienting the organisation
and profiling it.
Different ways to make this choice clear:
a. informational (= based on concrete attributes, rational) :
emphasis on concrete advantages
b. transformational (= bases on values and emotions) =
lifestylepositioning
c. twoway positioning : combination of a and b
d. Performance positioning : only the communication
approach differs.
46. A succesfull positioning=
– Unique
– supportive
– Motivating (internal and external)
– Gives focus to the organisation
– consistent
47. Strategy : tools to help define it
(1)
AIDA-principle :
- Attention
- Interest
- Desire
- Action
48. Strategy : tools to help define it (2)
Sender
Active Passive
Active exchange search
Receiver
Passive distribution killing time
(routine)
49. A PR-strategy can take on different
forms.
BUT : always take notice of :
- the identity of the publics/stakeholders
- their information need(s)
- the desired effect
- the goals one wants to reach
50. Message
An effective message is one that cost-
effectively promotes objectives,
matches the interests and meets the
needs of the publics at which is is
directed and which is suitable for
and compatible with the channels
that will be used to communicate it.
52. 2 important criteria
3. Close to the intellectual level and
the referential knowledge of the
publics
4. In corelation with the information
needs of the publics/stakeholders
53. Tactics
Should flow easily and naturally
Strategy should guide brainstorming
and be used to reject activities that
do not support the strategic intent or
the programme objectives
THUS : there should be a clear link
between objectives, strategy and
tactics
55. Designing the tactical elements
of a campaign
2 questions should be answered :
– Is the tactic appropriate ?
• Will it reach the target publics ?
• Will it have the right impact ?
• Is it credible and influential ?
• Does it suit the content in terms of creative
treatment and compatibility with other
techniques used ?
56. – Is the tactic deliverable ?
• Can it be implemented successfully?
• Is there sufficient budget ?
• Are the timescales correct ?
• Can one rely the right people and expertise
to implement it ?
58. Budget
= An itemized forecast of an individual's or company’s
income and expenses expected for some period in the
future
= A Budget is a plan that outlines an organizations
financial and operational goals. So a budget may be
thought of as an action plan; planning a budget helps a
business allocate resources, evaluate performance, and
formulate plans.
= important for an organisation : to act, to make decisions,
to evaluate.
59. Budget (2)
= action expressed in money
= normative for everyone in the
organisation
60. Advantages
Increases the management of costs,
manpower and materials
Better possibilities to delegate
Augments efficiency
Evaluation is easier
Feasibility of the PR-Plan becomes more
clear
63. Timescaling
= an instrument to handle deadlines
Because :
- Time is a finite commodity
- The life of a PR practitioner is notoriously
busy
- PR often involves the cooperation of
others
- Deadlines can be externally imposed or
internally driven by the organisation
66. 4th phase : Implementation of the
PR-plan
Plans, if they are to be carried out
effectively, must be monitored at
each step of the way. Follow through
on plans is just as important in the
practice of public relations as it is in
a good golf swing.
67. 5th phase : Evaluating PR
- If Public Relations is to command greater
management attention and support, it
must demonstrate that it works, which is
what measurement and evaluation are all
about
-The Achilles heel of many public relations
operations is weak feedback of results to
management”
68. Exercise
Students of 2PR G organised a welcome event for the
Mocomastudents in february 2012.
Directive : A quick integration of the foreign students in
our University college and in our city.
Activities :
–Invite per mail
–Information Session and guided tour in Kantienberg
–Buddie-event
–Pub Crawl
–Quest in Ghent
–Visit of a Brewery
How would you try to find out if the students of 2 PR G
were successful ?
69. Evaluation :
Focuses effort
Demonstrates effectiveness and efficiency
Encourages good management and
accountability
70. Evaluation :
=
– Regularly checking if the programme is on track
– An ongoing process and should be considered at
the objective-setting stage : it does not happen at
the end of the programme
– Ongoing monitoring
– end of the programme : has the plan met its
overall objectives
72. Different levels
Short term Effects (immediate)
-Contact
-Knowledge
-Understanding
-Accept
Long term Effects
-knowledge
- attitude
- behaviour
73. Dimensions of Evaluation
- Formative evaluation (pretesting)
- Before the programme is in operation
- Summative evaluation (posttesting)
- Assessing outcomes and impacts as
they take place towards the end of a
programme
- Impact Evaluation
- Evaluates results against objectives
74. Principles that make evaluation
easier :
Setting SMART objectives
Evaluating from the start
Agreeing measurement criteria with whoever will be
judging success
Evaluating and monitoring as the programme
progresses
Taking an objective and a scientific approach
(training in research methods or employing
specialists)
Establishing open and transparent monitoring
processes (monthly reports),..)
75. Baskin en Aronoff
Closed evaluation system
- production , distribution, interests,
reach, understanding and attitude
- within the PR-programme and related
to the publics involved.
- short term effects
Open evaluation system
- keeping track with the environment
- long term effects
