Public Relations people are designers. They design and set trends that should be followed. They influence the way people perceive organisations and brands. PR designers make their audience feel comfortable buying inexpensive clothes at PEP, Ackermans even though some of their clothing is wear and tear. On the other hand, some feel comfortable buy very expensive brands like Gucci and Louis Vuitton even though on the side of the road, an imitation is sold that looks exactly like the real makoya.
PR people are designers and create images that eventually will become a reality. These people are very futuristic and everything is about building long-term relationships. Others merely view us as dreamers as everything is not about here and now.
What people don't understand and realise is that designers are needed in this world. They have a vision and make things happen. In an organisation, these are the people who foresee a crisis before it occurs. Crisis prevention is better than crisis management.
Yep we set trends, but yet we easily fall for things like V-day and spend loads money.....
