"Publicity is the life of this culture- in so far as without publicity, capitalism
could not survive- and at the same time publicity is its dream" John Berger
When you get free publicity, you become familiar - even famous! And it gives you credibility. When you are written about in the newspaper or magazine, or interviewed on TV or radio, you are news; and that's better than any advertising you can buy.
Publicity & Profits are mutually inclusive here.
Marketing, Recognition & Business Development Strategies
Using media exposure to eliminate expensive advertising costs.
