PR Knowledge Zone

Ever wanted to know more about PR and social media? Well, because we're nice people (honestly) and because we constantly get requests from PR professionals asking where they can find useful stuff, we thought we would produce a PR Knowledge Zone.

We don't pretend this is an all-encompassing library, but we reckon it's a pretty good collection of PR information.

So please feel free to browse and download the stuff below. If you want to send us reports to add onto this page, do get in touch. The content rules are that the reports have to be interesting, robust and free (for our readers).
