Ryoyo Electro Corporation 様 Partnering with novice PR team members to support internal and media relationship building and self-sufficiency CUEBIC Inc. 様 View Other Cases FAQ 01 What does a PR company do?

Public relations activities refer to the process of communicating information about a company’s or organization’s values, principles, products, and services through various means. 02 I don’t understand the difference between advertising and PR. Advertising and public relations (PR) both aim to promote companies and organizations and disseminate information, but their methods and approaches differ. Advertising involves purchasing paid media space in newspapers, magazines, television, radio, and on the web to promote a company’s own products and services. With advertising, there’s a lot of freedom in the message content and format, and a strategic approach is crucial to reach the target audience. While advertising can incur significant costs, if done well, it can appeal to a large number of people in a short period. 03 What services does NWC offer?
