PR Newswire Launches New Brand Positioning and Campaign: 'Engage Opportunity Everywhere'

NEW YORK, Nov. 9, 2010 /PRNewswire/ -- PR Newswire (www.prnewswire.com) has introduced a new brand positioning and integrated marketing campaign, "Engage Opportunity Everywhere." Developed by New York-based AOR, Stein Rogan + Partners, the positioning and campaign are designed to generate awareness of and demand for PR Newswire's industry-leading Marketing, PR, IR and CSR solutions.

"For nearly 60 years, PR Newswire has led the commercial news release distribution industry through thought leadership, product innovation, customer service and an unparalleled breadth of services," states Rachel Meranus, vice president, Marketing & Communications, PR Newswire. "As we continue to anticipate our customers' needs and evolve our services to meet these needs, it became imperative that we implement brand positioning that reflects this evolution," she adds.

PR Newswire's new positioning and tagline, 'Engage Opportunity Everywhere' clearly articulates how PR Newswire enables organizations to engage audiences across all channels with the content formats these audiences are most apt to consume.

Meranus continued, "PR Newswire has become a leading provider of audience engagement and workflow solutions that enable marketers and communicators to better leverage multimedia content to intersect with and engage audiences across traditional, digital, social, search and mobile channels.  The new positioning and accompanying campaign assets perfectly illustrate this."

"The 'Engage Opportunity Everywhere' campaign brings the positioning to life by visually demonstrating how PR Newswire helps produce, optimize, target and distribute content to all key audiences – consumers, business decision makers, the media, bloggers, investors, influencers – across all channels," comments Tom Stein, Stein Rogan's President and Chief Creative Officer.

The campaign kicked off at the Public Relations Society of America (PRSA) International Conference on October 18 with an integrated marketing effort, including a significant mobile and social component.

In addition, the campaign has also rolled out across sites including Ad Age, BtoB Magazine, iMedia Connection, Chief Marketer, PRWeek and IR Magazine.

Campaign channels include digital display, search, social, multimedia content distribution, trade show marketing and e-direct.

"In today's hyper-fragmented world, PR Newswire is perfectly positioned to help marketing and communications professionals across disciplines engage audiences in richer and more impactful ways via dynamic, multichannel distribution of multimedia content. We're very excited to help tell this story with what we believe is a dynamic and engaging new campaign," Stein adds.
