Public relations is an essential component of the
corporate marketing mix, one that plays a critical role in building
brand awareness and increasing sales opportunities. Why?
Because unlike a typical marketing effort, public relations
represents the only objective, unadulterated information flow
about your product, service or organization. And in today’s
competitive environment in which the typical American sees
more than 5,000 marketing messages daily, public relations
is not an option, it’s a necessity.
A strategic public relations program can position your company
to enter new markets and expose your offerings to new audiences
without the expense associated with an advertising program. A well
thought-out and skillfully executed media relations campaign will
turn your organization into a “source” for reporters
seeking an expert’s opinion. After all, knowledge is power
– specifically, power with the press. Reporters usually care
a lot more about what you know than what you do, and getting publicity
in mainstream national publications is often a matter of giving
them what they want. A PR campaign strategically shapes your message
to cater to the needs and interests of each media outlet. In turn,
coverage by the news media will increase your visibility and even
your credibility among various publics. We have a process that reflects
this kind of thinking and encompasses the technologies that make
up its execution… Kitchen Brand Attentioneering™.

Recently, the Four A’s published a white paper indicating
that a company’s brand can contribute up to 5% of its
stock’s value. That’s real dollars. And an illustration,
among many others, of how critical a company’s corporate
image or product brand can be. We believe that PR can play
a tremendous role in molding public opinion about brand, and
that’s why at Kitchen, it’s a core focus. But
we don’t just bandy about the term branding, without
substance. Instead, we have a comprehensive process of elevating
brand through public relations. It’s called Brand Attentioneering™
and here’s how it works:
Today, a brand can mean different things to different people. By
defining up front that makes the brand tick, and recognizing its
individual value propositions to particular target groups, we identify
a much more enhanced brand experience to these sub-markets. We then
use our considerable media relations experience, including Kitchen
proprietary techniques such as the MediaWorks Circle™, to
effectively distribute brand messages to applicable vertical channels
among the tens of thousands of print, broadcast, pointcast and e-comm
media outlets. The result is an enriched brand that reaches direct
targets, influencers and potential targets in new and dramatic ways.
Brand Attentioneering™… making your brand unique, powerful,
and motivating to different targets. It’s a part of everything
we do at Kitchen, and one way that we deliver definitive sales and
profits.
