Notas del editor

  1. Have them do this as a group – in their normal team. Come up with a list. Let’s write those on the board.
  2. Is Twitter!
  3. As a simple example, Take a hopefully innocuous subject like “lacrosse”Prompt them – how else could this be helpful for PR?
  4. People use photos/video more and more to take photos of products they like and share them.I want you to look for photos.
  5. Products – breakfastSentiment – positiveAudience - influencers
  6. We could contact bloggers & get them to try our products as opposed to just sending it to medaWe could learn about why people don’t like our product and find ways to improve it.Clarify misunderstandingsReact to people, etc.
