AI: We want to know what you think!

Spring 2023

We want to know what you think about AI!

Everyone is talking about AI these days, especially as it relates to business. Leonard & Finco Public Relations, Inc. is conducting this brief three question survey to determine how area organizations and businesses view AI as well as when or if you’re incorporating its use into your operations. All responses will be confidential; reported out in aggregate.

Survey

Are you prepared if you get a call from the media?

Prepping for a media interview takes a bit of improv:

You’ve generated the media interest in doing a story on you or your company and now it’s time to prepare. This includes having great visuals and a set of well thought out talking points that conveys your message. Now it’s time to rehearse! A great way to be ready for an interview is to brainstorm ideas with your team and flush out messaging that may not work anymore.

After you develop the talking points with you team, practice a few rounds of interview Improv with them. This will help finalize your messages and possibly identify any questions that may pose a challenge. Learn how to play here.

Guide to Interview Prep

Congratulations, you’ve secured an interview with a media outlet to promote a new service your company offers! That’s great, but that’s only the start for creating a successful outcome.

Now, it’s time to prepare for the interview. Just because you think you know everything about your service doesn’t mean you should walk into an interview without being properly prepared. Review our interview guide to be ready for any future interviews.
