Douglas Simon President & CEO of D S Simon Productions had a conversation with Steve Momorella about TEKGroup International’s findings from their Social Media News Survey and how a company can enhance their outreach with social media tools. Steve was present at the Bulldog Media Relations Summit in NYC on June 28th.
Some of Steve VlogViews:
“75% of the people that we interviewed said after they learn of a story on a social media news outlet, they then go to the corporate website or online news room.”
“We found that most organizations should have an online newsroom, if not for the kind of the traditional use, which is to access the media its really to have a central headquarters of all your information.”
“People make the mistake of they write a great story, they put out a press release and they sit back and wait for people to come and they’re not aggressive in pushing their message out. That’s one of the biggest mistakes is you have a great story but no one knows about it.”
D Simon Productions partnered with Bulldog Media Relations Summit, which was held June 28 and 29th in NYC.

Douglas Simon President & CEO of D S Simon Productions had a conversation with Lauren Dewhirst, the newest member of the D S Simon Productions Team about her experience, philosophy and approach in her new role as VP, Director Midwest operations at D S Simon Productions.
Some of Lauren’s VlogViews:
“During the hiring process, I learned D S Simon Productions is an innovative, integrated, content creation company with distribution across all platforms, anything from TV to radio and Internet. I didn’t realize that Internet Media Tours, Viral Video, Media Placement and Video Press Junkets were such an important part of what we do. But, most important was the fact that we are at the forefront of where our industry is going. That was really important for me.”
“I’ve worked with some of the CMO and Chief Communications Officers at great companies and have been at the table with them outlining what their goals are for the coming years. I’m excited to help them strategize, plan and execute broadcast PR initiatives to help them achieve their goals.”
