Strive Notes

Here are some excellent posts served to my desktop this week.  

1. In its dealings with  Healthcare Vox, Jupiter Research demonstrates how to get blogger relations completely wrong.  It’s strange when you consider that Jupiter is supposed to be an Internet specialist.  I’m sure this post had a significant effect on sales.

2. Simon Collister wants to know what Colin Farrington is on about.  He gives a very good analysis of the Profile magazine article in which Mr Farrington (CIPR director general) demonstrates an alarming naivety about blogging.  

3. Morgan McLintic has nailed us pretty well with his The three types of PR Consultant.  I think I’m 1 and 3 with a little bit of 2.  Where do you Strivers fit in?

4. Media Orchard congratulates trade publications on the shortlist for the American Society of Business Publication Editors. Strive Public Relations wishes them all the best of luck.  Winners will be announced later this month.  

5. Lee reminds us all about the fundamentals of internal communications. I think it’s a good thing to go over the basics from time to time to remind ourselves why we do what we do.

And, what have you Strivers been reading?
