Okay, so I have to do a report on a PR practitioner for my PR class.. makes sense, right? Well I'm having problems finding someone in the PR field to interview.. Is anyone here a practicing PR person?
If so can I maybe interview you?
(it'll take like 10 minutes on the phone) It's so easy, I just can't find anyone to talk to :(

Anyone? Please? haha..

Gyps or Twin might be the closest we have to a professional PR practitioner (if thats even a phrase). Don't know if they consider that a stretch or not, but thats the direction PR heads.

Okay cool, yeah I was thinking about doing Twin. Maybe I'll try and set up interviews with both of them. My professor isn't very helpful in finding people so he'll have to deal :mad:

Yup, my degree is PR, and that is one of the areas I do with PMS as well. You got my number! :)

Do you mean Public Relations or Pranking Retard? I fit the latter description. ;)

Good luck on the report!

I don't have a degree in PR, what I've learned I've learned through experience and Twin, but you can message me or call if you still need help.

okay thanks gypsy :) I think I'm going to try and do twin, just gotta figure out a good time to call her.
I don't think its what he "wants" but oh well, he didn't help much in my quest on finding someone else, so hopefully it'll work.. haha.

Try her around 12pm-5pm est or PM her for the best time to talk.

I don't see why he wouldn't accept her as your PR contact, she has a degree and proven experience in the field. Just show him all the PMS press online, including her EGM mention, Entertainment Weekly article, newspaper article, interview on G4 so on.

Here's our Wikipedia article, that may help: PMS Clan Wiki (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PMS_Clan)

yeah, its more like the questions he wants answered... idk. Here I'll show you:

-PR employment history
-College/Major
-What was your day on the job like yesterday?
-Do ethics play a role in PR, or what's your stand on that?
-What kinds of public opinion research do you do?
-What kinds of writing do you do?
-How much do you make (a range)?
-Do you like your job?

I think she definitely fits the profile for PR I just don't know if its exactly what he wants, I think it'll be ok tho.
