Organizations hire public relations experts to position themselves strongly in the minds of target audiences, investors, stakeholders, employees and all others associated with it. Public relations activities are designed specially to create a strong brand image.

Public relations experts develop and design various interesting and creative stories about their organization and products and pitch it to various media people. Organizations bank on their relations with media channels to enhance the reputation of their brand.
Following are the tools used in media relations:
Press kits include written material about the organization and its top people.
Audio releases or video releases are prerecorded messages distributed to various media channels.
Small local newspapers accept articles written by organizations when they do not have sufficient articles or stories to publish. Such releases are called as matte releases.
Public relations experts promote their organization and its products/services through online press rooms.

Newsletters are nothing but publications which are distributed on a regular basis (monthly, quarterly) among target audiences.

Newsletters should include information about the organization, interview from key people, product information, testimonials from clients and so on.
Public relations experts organize special events, gatherings, parties, to target their customers and promote their organization and its products among them. People from media are also invited for coverage.

It is really essential for employers to stay in constant touch with employees and keep them abreast with the latest developments and happenings within the organization. Management or public relations experts should circulate latest events, new product launches among employees through emails, circulars, notices or simply communicating with them.
Public relations experts engage in various social and charitable activities to publicize their organization and its products. Organizations distribute products among target audiences to create a goodwill of their organization.
