Omolawyer the PR
Who is a PR? What do they do? And why are they so unrecognised? Omolawyer to tell us that.
What is your name?
My name is Owoeye Korede.. People mostly refer to me as Omolawyer
What school do you attend?
I attend the University of Lagos Tell us what you do
I am a publicist / promoter by profession.. (and I love my job)
What's that all about?
Being a promoter or publicist basically means having the full capacity or ability to promote, push or publicise a person or his or her brand to their target audience. Sadly , Digital Marketers, Social Media influencer, Brand Builders and Content Creators are easily mixed up by the society
Is there a difference between a PR and an online promoter?
Uhm... That's a confusing question..
Digital marketers sell your brand to the crowd using digital means.. Social media influencer have the ability to trend stuff or put your stuff every where on the media.. Content creators are like the creative thinkers that can give you business plans and tactics.. Ideas and strategies.. Brand builders build a brand from the scratch and are faithful to that brand. So
they are all different..these are like the branches of publicity... Though we have people that can do all of the above but not every one can... Some have their strengths.
Can someone with a lot of followers on social media be termed a PR?
No... That dosent mean at all.. People with lots of followers and promote only on social media are digital marketers and social media influencer. These people do online promotions and can't perform offline(offline in terms of radio, TV etc)
Someone can have large followers on instagram but not on twitter hence his crowd is limited and his strength is on instagram. So large following doesn't exactly qualify one to be a Pr
