Branding is ultimately the way you differentiate your product from the competition. Whether you're selling a celebrity image, automobiles, or a financial service, your goal is to make your brand the most recognizable by the consumer. But there's much more to effective branding than a memorable slogan and ubiquitous advertising; public relations is becoming key to the entire strategy.

You’ve seen it all before. A malicious online rumor costs a company millions. A political sideshow derails the national news cycle and destroys a candidate. Some product or celebrity zooms from total obscurity to viral sensation. What you don’t know is that someone is responsible for all this. Usually, someone like me. I’m a media manipulator. In a world where blogs control and distort the news, my job is to control blogs - as much as any one person can.

PR is not what it used to be. Hiring experienced publicists, sending press releases, and pitching reporters at newspapers and magazines aren't worth the hassle, effort, capital, and resources given today's digital environment - where the Internet has become a necessity to make your mark online. Whether you're an established business or a wannabe personality, people need to know your story...who you are...what you do...why you rock.

Public relations has always been an essential part of doing business which is probably why you're shelling out big money to an outside PR firm. But the truth is that you don't need them. You already have all the necessary tools in-house to do as good a job as the so-called experts. Landing public relations coverage for yourself and your company is a powerful tool to help elevate your personal brand. PR is easier to generate, leverage, and is more effective than marketing. In other words, public relations is more critical than ever in growing your brand and your business.

Publisher's Summary
The Fundamentals of Public Relations: What It Is and How to Do It Well gives listeners a complete understanding of the essentials of the discipline and teaches them how to apply and practice them successfully. While many standard textbooks concentrate on explaining what public relations is, The Fundamentals of Public Relations also emphasizes how to conduct public relations and initiate successful public relations tactics.
After a brief introduction to the field the book moves to public relations research and the legal implications of public relations practice. Separate and distinct chapters are devoted to employee, media, community, consumer, and government relations.
Essential forms of communication are discussed in chapters on public relations writing and social media. The book concludes with an examination of the future of public relations and the role of tomorrow's practitioners.
The Fundamentals of Public Relations effectively combines an introduction to key concepts with a practical approach to successful implementation.

Good for startups, business owners
The audiobook was very instructive albeit the monotone and somewhat uninspiring narration. It provides a very good overview on what PR is and how to use it within your organization.
By listening to this audiobook you will learn:
+ Why is PR important for your business
+ What PR can do and cannot do / misconceptions
+ Who PR deals with
+ Your PR opportunities
+ What is the relationship between medias and PR - quite long and informative chapter
+ How should your PR behave
+ What skills is required for effective PR
+ Some useful rules to follow
I think the whole book lacks to understand its target audience and doesn't give enough examples, or at least real world business-related examples. It however remains an easy to understand book that covers the topic in-depth.
It's a great addition for those interested in startups books or for curious minds desiring to have a kick start in PR. I don't think the book would be a great for academics who already studied in that field - go with the marketing equivalent instead.
TL;DR; the book won't give you advanced mind-controlling techniques and ninja PR skills. Read it if you'd like to understand what's PR all about (the title says it all).
