5.0 out of 5 stars ITS BETTER FOR WHAT IS FOR: A BASIC INTRODUCTION TO PR, 7 Dec 2003
By M. Adamou "Marios" (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This book was a pleasant surprice. It has structure, a goal, avoids waffle and actually teaches something useful. At the end, it gives a very helpful guide of websites relating to PR. For an absolute beginner in the field like me, it is highly recommended.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent resource, 27 Sep 2003
I just recently read PR Power for the second time and had to write in and tell others how beneficial I found it. There are so many ideas in the book that can be adapted to almost any business. Each chapter answers all the vital questions and the author take us hand in hand through the whole process of implementing PR through to making the most of a published clip.

The book also makes the whole process of contacting a journalist and coping with a cold call, not as scary as one might think.

It's an excellent resource with many million-dollar ideas, especially in the case-study chapter.

It's an excellent book for PR consultants as well as SME's looking into the benefits of adding PR to their marketing activities.

Thank you
Ms. Mangla Sachdev

5.0 out of 5 stars Power to You, Too, 18 Jul 2002
By Mr. R. S. Craven "Robert Craven" (Bath, Avon United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
PR Power is a good book - you can read throiugh it all. And/or you can keep it on your bookshelf for when you need such a book.

It is full of tips and techniques and it de-mystifies what the PR agency does.

I like the way she writes and I like the lack of nonsense theory.

This is a good practical hands-on book for people who want to improve the purpose and the quality of their PR coverage.

I know of no other business book that gives you what you want so succinctly
