But nobody likes to hear that they’re doing it wrong—even if they are actually doing it wrong. So instead of telling you everything you’re doing wrong, I thought I would sweeten the deal.

PR! It’s powerful. It’s magical. It’s mandatory. For everyone. But wait—is it? No matter what your colleagues or favorite websites tell you, PR isn’t always a must-have —not for every business at every stage. For some very young companies, it can be a waste of money. For others, it can be the move that makes the company happen. Let’s take a look at how to determine when a PR investment is a smart decision and when it’s premature.

When I first got started blogging, I would get really hyped up when people shared my posts on social media. "Look! People are tweeting out my blog post!" I'd tell my roommates giddily, holding up an open palm for what I thought was a well-deserved high-five. And then, something happened. One of my blog posts totally blew up on social compared to my average post.

Landing Pages are the spice of life. Or at the very least, the spice of a good online conversion. In addition to writing a great headline and having a great offer, you'll need some great imagery to complete your landing page. After all, a picture says a thousand words. But what if you need to get a great image and you don't have a graphic design on hand to bang one out?

In the B2B marketing toolkit, white papers can be a powerful option for reaching decision-makers and experts, presenting them with interesting information that improves their perception of your organization's competence and thought leadership. That said, a poorly executed whitepaper will not only be unable to influence your desired audience but will also come with significant costs that other assets won't incur.

Pretty much every website has a “Contact Us” page these days. The most sparse pages might only provide a mailing address and phone number, while other companies go out of their way to create special user portals, live chat, or exhaustive directories to help their audience. Among these, it’s not too uncommon to find social media links offered as a means of communication, with implicit promises of fast response and personalized interaction.

We've all fallen victim to a boring presentation at one point or another. You know what I'm talking about. where the presentation has no structure, the presenter is basically reading straight off of text-heavy slides, the graphs are confusing, and there's some weird stuff going on with the color scheme. Presentations like that are boring, and chances are, you'll walk out of the room without remembering a thing.

Every so often, I’ll hear someone disparage the wisdom of majoring in English or history. “What a useless degree,” they’ll exclaim. Better, I guess, to major in engineering or accounting, both of which – I agree – are fine choices for future employment. The disparaging of English and history is quickly followed by what’s wrongly believed to be a truism about the job market: “an English or history degree won’t get you hired.” In other wo
