It’s been 3 weeks since a @ShopRiteStores delivery truck hit my car parked on the street and RAN . No note, no attempt to reach me. And my attempts to reach @ShopRiteStores have gone IGNORED. There were witnesses. Do better.
As someone who works in PR im appalled a brand like @ShopRiteStores wouldn’t even have the decency to at least acknowledge a customer and say they’re looking into this. As a business, respect goes a long way. And I was more than polite the first 2 weeks.

A peer in a PR group I’m part of broke down in tears.
Honestly, I could relate.
Our industry is tough.
Not just because:
- It doesn’t matter who you “know”
- Getting top-tier placements is an art + science
- You have to be scrappy, adaptable, and tenacious to succeed
But also because of client expectations.
This colleague got their client multiple top-tier placements.
But they were still unhappy and demanded more.
The problem:
Even the best PR firm on the planet can’t control what happens *after* you get placed.
They can get you in The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, TechCrunch —
But they can’t determine whether a client converts any of the interest from investors, business partners, and elite talent that follows.
If you’re working or plan to work with a PR firm…
Keep this in mind:
Behind every placement are human beings.
Who đź‘Ź worked their butts off đź‘Ź to get your company featured.
And the better you treat them—
The harder they’ll work for you next time.

Having to consistently perform when the odds are against you and rejection is almost certain.
That is PR.
A thread all my #Philly friends need in their life today. Thank you for your service @FarFarrAway may they fix them fast and the smell be minimal. 🫡

The PR industry should focus more on quality over quantity.
It's not about how many pitches you send, but how relevant and well-crafted they are.
