Working in PR is challenging. You have to put out fires every day, you have to bring in new clients, while keeping up with what’s happening in the industry. Not to add continuously learning.

Maybe challenging is not the right word. I’ll have to think of another one, more appropriate.

When I was in college, taking PR and communications classes, I could not wait to finish school and go out into the world and practice what I learned. I felt like I was wasting time in school, and there was so much to be done.

Imagine my surprise when I did go out into the world and realized what I learned in my communications classes had nothing to do with real life.

I could not apply one thing. Everything I learned was obsolete, outdated.

What a “nice” way to start your career, isn’t it?

By the way, that was way before the internet ruled our lives. You know, those times when we used cord phone ☎️ and and fax.📠

I still remember how baffled I was. I could not understand how it was possible to spend so many years in school, only to find out I had to start from scratch, knowledge-wise when I joined the work force.

All those communications books I read and studied for my exams did not help me in my day job.

My professors weren’t around to walk me through or “hold my hand.”

There wasn’t a guide I could read to know how and where to start. There wasn’t a book I could go to when I dealt with a particular situation.

I had to learn everything step by step.

But that was then. Now we have the internet and social media and countless resources.

I would say, these days we have the opposite problem, too much information. Now you don’t know what to choose.

And here is where Answers for Modern Communicators comes in.

A Guide for Business Communication

You may say, well that’s another book from thousands out there on PR and communications.

Or, when do I find the time to read yet another book?

And you may be right, it is a book on PR and communications. And yes, you already are busy as it is, without the need to add more on your “plate.”

But let me ask you this, when you look back at your career five years from now, what do you think your thoughts will be?

“I wish I were less busy” or “I wish I had the answers to the right questions to help that client, get that promotion, or land that new account?”

We are all busy, whether you work in PR or not. We live in a fast-paced world and it’s not slowing down anytime soon.

Wouldn’t you want to a have a solid partner by your side, a mentor to answer your most pressing questions and guide you and your career in PR?

Look at Answers for Modern Communicators as a companion in your journey in PR. It has answers for your most pressing questions, but also the wisdom and experience of the best of the best.

It’s not enough to read this book once. You have to read it over and over again. You will come back to it for each question you have and you know what, the answers will always be there, waiting for you.
