		Frequently Asked Questions 
		  
		
			  | Q. What is PR 
			(Public Relations)? |  
		 
		  
		
			  | 
			 A. In 
			the United Kingdom, PR tends to have a single meaning of “Sales and 
			Promotion=PR”, but the original meaning is much more complex. It can 
			be defined as Public Relation (PR), which is the activity of a 
			company to build up good relations with those outside the company, 
			such as the general public, potential investors, the government and 
			providing consumers and potential employees with information about 
			your company through the mass media that it may not otherwise have 
			access to. “The act of building good relations between a person, 
			service, product and/or company and the community it serves.” This 
			is a workable definition of what a Public Relations company does. As 
			for a PR Company, like Carver Media Group, our activities are not 
			necessarily squeezed into our relationships to various segments of 
			the public, so a good definition of what we do is: “Constructing a 
			good network of mass media relations to further our clients’ goals.”

			  | Q. What 
			groups/individuals are given to be the object of PR activities? |  
		 
		  
		
			  | 
			 A. 
			They are the following: 
			Individuals: 
			Journalist, Stockholders/Investors, Employees/ Employees of 
			Incorporated Companies, General Consumer, Security Analyst, Interns 
			and Transitional Employees, Miscellaneous People, etc. 
			Groups: 
			Corporate ranking agency, Financial Institutions, Local Populace and 
			Local Societies, Pundits and Specialists, Countries and 
			Municipalities, ect.  |  
		 
		  
		
			  | Q. What is the 
			difference between PR Advertising and Public Announcements? |  
		 
		  
		
			  | 
			 A. An 
			easy explanation of the difference between advertising and Public 
			Relations is this: buying space in the newspaper or a magazine, 
			buying time on television or the radio, buying billboards or setting 
			up websites and other forms of media for the purpose of passing 
			information about a person, product , service or company is 
			“advertising.” With advertising, you can control the time, place and 
			cost of the enterprise to the liking of your group, especially given 
			the cost of large scale advertisement on television. Moreover, often 
			the effect of the advertisement is not seen through the cost that 
			was put into it because things are often seen subjectively and 
			one-sidedly. Basically, it is analyzed that it is not easy to relate 
			to the sales if the message is made neither to be repetitive nor to 
			be memorized in consumer's head. 
			PR: 
			It has been said, the strong point of PR is that it attempts the 
			integration of the corporate message through the use of print media 
			and the programs of the mass media. "Originating reliability from 
			objectivity". A lot of consumers tend to believe the content of the 
			advertisements and information unconditionally because he or she 
			takes the view that given information from an objective third party 
			named by the mass media, unlike an advertisement which is merely 
			picked up the press and mass media. Therefore, in the eyes of the 
			public, Public Relations can become a comparison to advertisements. 
			And that will cause a reaction from the general public and potential 
			customers. This means that the finished product will actually cost 
			less than an advertisements, once you add in the costs of 
			programming, space in print media, because you don’t have to worry 
			about those costs. However, the company cannot control the message 
			that it wishes to send, but while there are a lot of advantages, the 
			weakness in timing that will appear in the programming.  
			Paid publicity (Tie-Up Paid 
			PR): This is paid 
			publicity that has all the advantages of advertising and PR, and is 
			done more actively in foreign countries than it is in the United 
			Kingdom. The cost is lower than PR, the message is easily 
			transmitted and to some degree can be controlled better than it can 
			be through mass media transmission, this makes it a technique that 
			is widely used. If the faults are listed then the results are fewer 
			and it’s always a seller’s market.   |  
		 
		  
		
			  | Q. Other than mass 
			media relations, what other PR (Public Announcements) activities are 
			you involved in? |  
		 
		  
		
			  | 
			 A. 
			The Public Relations Department of any enterprise should do various 
			activities besides building excellent relations between their client 
			and the mass media; it should increase the number of positive 
			articles about the client. Generally, there is an activity of only 
			following through with a few little ideas, and this is part of the 
			abstract work of the Public Relations Department , each of these 
			types of activities can supported by Carver Media Group:  
			Making and delivery of Press 
			Releases, Coordination of Press Conferences, Making of In-House 
			Magazine (Group Reports), In-house Television Video Taping, Making 
			of Corporate Profile (Group Guides), Making of Annual Report for 
			Investors, Briefing Investors, Making of PR Papers and Magazines, 
			Environmental Reports, Making of Sustainability Reports, Creation 
			and Management of Web Site, Creation and Management of Intranet, 
			Planning and Management of various Visitations and events, Clipping 
			and Information, Accumulation for Newspaper, Magazine, and TV Media 
			The idea behind this is that it 
			completes the world of a single faceted engine in these areas in 
			order to raise them to the level of strategies and systems that 
			exist. These words were once only seen in economic magazines, and 
			Carver Media Group has PR that supports these themes: 
			Investors relations (IR), 
			Risk Management (Crisis-Management), Internal Corporate 
			Communications, Marketing PR, Corporate Branding PR, Leader 
			Communications PR.  |
