Welcome to episode #8 of For Immediate Release. This week’s panel includes Howard Greenstein, chief operating officer and co-founder of DomainSkate; Francine Hardaway, cofounder of Stealthmode Partners; and Mark Story, communication counsel and social media lead for the National Cancer Institute.

On this week’s show, we shared our views on the follow topics:

  • A joint study from the PR Council and the Association of National Advertisers found that CMOs believe brand narrative and social strategies — including content marketing, brand journalism, and social media — all belong under the jurisdiction of marketing or advertising departments. PR? That’s for crisis management and executive communication.
  • The possibility of an startup from outside their industries suddenly presenting them with significant competition is the number one thing keeping CEOs awake at night. Call it the uber-ization of business.
  • Can spotlighting employees in a company’s social media accounts help make employees happier?
  • Reports indicate Facebook will introduce Notify this week. The app will deliver updates when new content is published by Facebook partners. What red flags does Notify wave?
  • Chief Digital Officers aren’t, for the most part, officers, and it’s not likely the position will exist for the long-term.
  • One of the panelists in a canceled SxSW panel wrote that she had raised the security issue several times before event organizers took the actions we reported in episode 7 of FIR. What went wrong? And what can people do about being harassed online?
  • UNICEF swapped ads for a call to action in an effort to defeat ad-blocking. What else can companies do to get their advertising into online publications without having them blocked at the browser?
