Tough Love with the Omniscient Pablo Pistachio
Dear Pablo,
We had a news conference the other day, and though my boss had something important to say, he didn't get quoted as much as the other company on the platform.
Publisher's Letter
Welcome to the sixth issue of the magazine too ornery to die, the magazine for CEOs, marketing specialists, advertising mavens, public relations executives and anyone else with the God-given talent to move product and services.
Selling the story an important part of marketing
Often the success of a marketing campaign fails because the public relations support effort is not successful in bringing a corporate change or new product the public attention needed.

The Six Fatal Mistakes
Having owned or worked at public relations agencies for 25 years, I have never been on the client’s side of the table. I have noticed certain characteristics, however, that would drive me to distraction (or out the door) if I were a client.
