19. Highlights from WCF in Davos
• PR agencies are trying to turn a bus into an airplane at 50mph: change
to new PR model is hard
• True stories (PR) are far more powerful than made-up stories
(advertising)
• PRs act like Democrats and deal in facts, advertisers act like Republicans
and deal in emotions
• Chief 'reputation' officer is to counsel CEO/C-suite/board on implications
before decisions are made
• PR today is about turning the critics into your advocates
• Each time you create a practice area in an agency, you destroy value
20. Short to remember
• Startups are hot
Everyone wants to make millions with another breakthrough
technology. This industry really needs Steve Jobs
• Wearables drive the market
• Privacy is new problem to think about
Not everyone is sure there is a problem
• Analytics – big data -- is hot too
• Nobody talks of social media and mobile
• Nobody is interested in another mobile app. Everybody is interested
in consumer experience story where SMM and mobile is part of story
• But content marketing, consumer experience story is really top interest
