NEW YORK, Oct. 31, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- One of the major themes to come out of the PRSA 2013 International Conference is the evolution and impact of measurable insights on communications practices.  Successful communications programs have always started and ended with the audience, but now PR efforts can be – and need to be – linked to real business outcomes.

In a new post on the Beyond PR blog, PR Newswire’s Sara Skerik, Vice President of Content Marketing, discusses her takeaways from the conference, which include the links between pitching, strategy and measurement, and the influences of social media, content marketing and digital marketing on PR.

Ms. Skerik also spoke at the conference, addressing Newsworthiness: New Context & Opportunities for PR. During her session, Ms. Skerik highlighted how the forces of the “always on” consumer and changing newsroom operations are presenting PR professionals with new opportunities to interact with their target audiences. Her presentation also ran through ideas on how to identify the “newsmakers” at an organization, and the relevant, “newsworthy” content that will engage audiences.
