Book Review of The Power of PR by Nicola J Rowley


Rating:⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐-(5/5)

The Power of PR is a non-fictional book embodied by Nicola J Rowley. In this book, she rightly poses PR as a process that involves engaging an audience that would buy into an idea and possibly finance it. This tenet allows them to share in her failures and joys and thus forges a form of emotional connection with the readers.

The book firmly highlights the importance of PR in accelerating business growth. In PR, the more people know about your brand, the greater the selling proficiency. 


Fundamental principles implied in this book are: Never be afraid to reveal the power and talent of your brand. Never conceal yourself behind marketing rhetoric. Be assertive about your brand, and constantly represent the best way possible. After all, if no one knows about you, how will they look for you? 


Be bold about who you are and what you can offer so prospects can come looking for you. Don’t underestimate the importance of knowing your ideal clients. It is on this note that the author, Nicola, shares a free workbook to help those who have identified who they want to be aiming business communications at, as well as a free goal-setting workbook. This workbook aims to help readers get crystal clear on both business objectives and communications objectives. 


PR is like a trail of breadcrumbs because it takes time to see tangible results. Therefore one must ensure that whatever one goes for must first align with them, their brand, and their values. 


The book exposes readers to the types of earned PR, the advantages and usage of different situations to promote maximum performance, and the proper answers to the questions that would allow you to navigate the media to your benefit. 


Nicola also discusses the dos and don’ts of personal PR. These days many individuals try to gain publicity by the portrayal of false living, especially while garnishing their professional profile. Unfortunately, this rot has become the new normal. Nicola instructs readers to capitalize on an adept brand strategist that understands your idea and can effectively tell your story in a manner that is true and captures the true intent of your business. She also shares tips on building your biography, winning ideal and high-speaking clients, and making strategic moves to get more clients.


The content of this book, in my opinion, is worth far more than the asking price. The book offers a straightforward guide for strategic storytelling for any brand. The author has provided answers to every query bothering your brand. She offers practical solutions based on her own experiences and recommendations from industry experts. Indeed, this book's title accurately describes its subject matter. This book is the go-to to strengthen your PR skill.
