ThisWeekinPRTakes - issue 46

Happy Friday!

There’s a ton going on with 2025 wrap ups and 2026 kickoffs, let’s dive right in! There were a lot of great takes this week (see below), but none really stood out as a Take of the Week. Of course, if you write or see a great take, please send it to me via LinkedIn and I’ll consider it for the following week.

I couldn’t think of a great image for this week’s post, so go Pats!

Chuckle of the Week:
For those in internal comms, Victoria’s post probably resonates and hopefully brings a smile to your face.

A message from Reportable:
Do you have mountains of data from 2025 and limited time to pull your KPIs into a report for clients/leadership? Reportable can work with your pulled articles and curate a custom report to include sentiment, share of voice, key message pull through or other metrics that matter the most.

Think of them like an experienced, on call account coordinator; and TWiPRT readers will see a 10% discount for any engagement in January.

Set up a call here to learn more.

The Rest of the Takes:
- David pleads us to stop saying, “PR is dead”
- We all love predictions! Are they harder to pitch or write? Adam gave his his top ten PR/Comms predictions for 2025.
- Does the amount of press coverage determine when you should have a Wikipedia page? William dives in to give us the answer. 
- Allison wrote about how tech may change, but pitching may not.
- We all hear TechCrunch, Tier One, etc., and Justin tells why we should be thinking more about customers.
- I wonder if Elise was excited or thrilled to write this post?
- Dustin wrote about PR and media relationships

That’s it for this week’s takes, thanks for reading.
