Why build relationships with the media?

Three simple reasons:

1. Building a positive media profile can increase sales and improve communications with key stakeholders.
2. Sound relationships with the media can prevent misconceptions and establish your organization as an expert in its field.
3. With a sound reputation as an industry expert, you will be the one that the media chooses to call for comment when stories pertaining to your industry break.

SCS will make sure that you are prepared to comment. Our experts understand the news process and how to make your story newsworthy.

Are you prepared to respond to a crisis?

1. What would you do if your company’s president suffered a fatal heart attack days before the company issued an IPO on the stock exchange?
2. What if the president is incapacitated for an extended period?
3. How would you communicate with your key stakeholders in the event of extreme weather conditions (i.e. multiple hurricanes, tornadoes, ice storms, etc.)?
4. Are you prepared to communicate with employees, customers and clients in a 9/11 type situation?
5. Can you respond to allegations of impropriety?
6. Do you know how to get information to those that need it during a health emergency?

If you are having trouble answering any of these questions, SCS can help your organization to develop a crisis communication plan that gets your message to the audiences that need to hear it.

So…What is a Communication Audit?

1. Does information flow smoothly between management and employees?
2. Are your key messages reaching the right people?
3. Is the right message being transmitted?
4. Does the media used to transmit the message suit the intended audience?

Don’t know the answers? SCS can help you identify existing strengths and provide you with recommendations to enhance the delivery of your company’s key messages. This will increase customer satisfaction thereby positively impacting the bottom line.

Why Plan?

Planning is a forward thinking process that allows individuals and organizations to anticipate changes in their internal and external environments. Planning helps to prepare your organization to respond to changes when they occur.

In helping you develop a communication plan, SCS can:
