The modern PR playbook?

Find a cultural/trending moment. Identify where the conversation lives. And quickly execute to inject your brand/product into the conversation.

That’s what 7-Eleven did and drove tens of millions in earned media…

So, let’s get some context:

Now the most impressive part is how fast 7-Eleven executed.

Here’s the timeline:

So, within two weeks, 7-Eleven:

What was the key?

7-Eleven saw the opportunity. Went all in. Executed fast as sh*t. Made the partnership happen.

All while the window of relevance was still open.

So, How Do You Execute The Modern PR Playbook?

Don’t start the conversation. Join it.

Don’t wait to craft the perfect campaign. Speed and creativity trump perfection.

So, quick takeaways:

  • Every day that goes by, the window for relevancy closes a little

  • When the stars align, speed and creativity are everything

  • Write/craft the headline then write the story or create the content

  • The best ideas start with “What if we…”

  • The answer is almost always “you should”

The only negative part? I didn’t buy a chain in time. Damn.

Do you have all the SEO tools you need?

In my household, my fiancee is the designated handywoman.

When pictures need to be hung, chairs need to be fixed, and cribs need to be assembled, she’s my gal.

But if her toolbox was missing its hammer and nails, we’d be screwed.

Ahrefs released a new free tool to improve your website’s SEO performance, monitor backlinks, and see keywords that bring you traffic – Ahrefs Webmaster Tools.

This is the best SEO tool out there. You absolutely need it in your toolkit.

Ahrefs Webmaster Tools will give you a “holistic view” of how your site is performing in search, as well as provide actionable insights, tips, and strategies.
