Thought leaders’ symbiotic relationship with the media

Thought leaders live here

Those who are thought of as thought leaders don’t live in caves. They live in public perception. Public perception of thought leaders is crafted more through the media than any other source. Your blog and social media may help, but PR and media relations have the biggest impact.

Which type of journalist is best to tell your story

We can break down journalists into four distinct types: The Storyteller, the Newshound, the Provocateur, and the Systems Analyst. Your goal is to find which kind of journalist is best suited to tell your story and create content that fits their needs. Here’s a brief explanation of each type.

Financial PR

Finance PR 2.0

Businesses in the financial sector understand how quickly their brands can wither under the media's intense spotlight. It seems the media are more unforgiving of finance more than any other sector. Rather than risk damaging your brand and reputation, you could have Lookatmedia™ to help you work with the media to grow.

Local impact

Support your sponsorships

Your sponsorships are how you show your support for the community. They demonstrate your commitment to the greater good. The question is, are you promoting the people, events, and organisations you sponsor enough?

Bridging the information gap

Bridging the gap

The public witnesses major transport projects. They see much, but they understand little. This lack of knowledge creates opportunities for disinformation and mistrust. Why allow this to happen when you have a solution like Lookatmedia™?

Combatting misinformation

Frustrating flapdoodle

Joseph Pulitzer sent notes to an editor in 1910 to review a subject ‘without flapdoodle’. Flapdoodle may be a term-long since out of use; however, in the absence of facts, foolish talk still makes its way into modern-day journalism. Lookatmedia™ provides you with a cure for common causes of flapdoodle, balderdash, drivel, hogwash, malarkey and twaddle.

Not all news is newsworthy

Separate news from noise

With the increasing interest in biotech updates from the media, it’s tempting to shoot out media releases on just about everything you do. That would be a mistake.

Take charge of the public policy debate

Promoting public policy solutions through the media

Governments don’t need a consensus on public policy solutions to be successful. With every policy change, there will be winners and losers. The key to effective public policy changes is demonstrating that the changes are for the public good.
