I overheard Keleigh the other day, explaining to a client the difference between the branding, marketing and advertising products and services provided here at beachdog.com, and Public Relations, which we leave to specialists in PR. The terminology of the industry can be confusing, so I thought I’d share a little something I found on the internet which I think explains it well.
Cheers!
