Starting a Movement
February 1, 2014
One of the things as PR pros we can do is for the audience is let them know when it’s safe to whoop, holler or applaud.

Often, we hesitate to spread the word and recommend something because it doesn’t feel safe to do so. It’s better to say nothing than it is to feel stupid.
Joining in on the standing ovation at the end of a Broadway play isn’t some sort of callow sellout. It’s actually a tradition that offers solace for the timid or uninitiated.
The trick in PR is to get to the tipping point.
