  1. So, that is a broad, philosophical description of what a public relations agency does, at a broadest level. Now let's talk about what a public relations specialist actually does in the practical world. In general, a public relations specialist gathers and disseminates information and takes care of any public information requests that come their way. They also work to keep any public figures who are in the public eye in good standing with the various news agencies and other media groups. Public figures can include politicians, athletes, talk show hosts, etc. Public relations specialists usually manage or supervise the PR campaigns for these public figures. Another aspect of public relations that isn't as philosophical is what happens when the public relations agency is asked to do a piece of investigative work for a newspaper, magazine, television station, etc. Sometimes this type of newsgathering is referred to as "behind the scene" work. Because reporters or other media personnel don't wish to deal with the press releases and public relations, this type of coverage may require the assistance of a PR company. The agency will handle the entire PR effort, making sure the story is accurate and well-kept. Sometimes, a public relations agency is called to represent a company, celebrity, politician or athlete against defamation suits or attack advertisements. In this case, the company's reputation is at stake, and the agency needs to do everything possible to defend it in the court of public opinion. Media personalities can sometimes get themselves into hot water, especially if they react negatively to a negative piece of news. The same goes for sports teams, business people, bands and musicians. A public relations agency may also be called upon to defend a public figure who has been accused of sexual harassment or other criminal activity. In this situation, the PR firm may have to create a number of social media strategies and public statements in defense of the person. It may be necessary for the PR firm to provide information, such as compiling a list containing recent incidents of sexual harassment. These statements can be posted on social media and in press releases. Another type of public relations function that many PR marketing public relations agency in Malaysia agencies perform is that of media liaison, meaning that they work with other entities such as newspapers, radio stations and television stations to get news out about a specific company, organization or person. It could include creating press releases and personal correspondences. An PR firm might be able to post news about new products or services on the shelves of stores at the exact same time it goes public. Such a liaison also works with celebrities, ensuring that their reputations are maintained in the public eye. A public relations agency often writes articles for newspapers and magazines that need to be publicized. They are usually written by independent writers contracted by a professional agency. They create articles specifically for that product and then post them on various directories. A PR agency can increase website traffic by placing informative articles on the internet if they are placed in the right context. An experienced PR company will know how to find keywords that can be used to attract attention to products. There are no limits on what can be published or written about an organization and business via social media. For instance, a public relations firm can go onto Facebook, Twitter, MySpace or LinkedIn and write press releases or commentaries about the company or brand. The same goes for blogs. A PR firm can write blogs that are relevant to the business and then post links to the company's website or Facebook page whenever they find it interesting to do so. This allows you to market your brand, and keeps the public updated about new trends and events.
