O&U LinkedIn Share Comment 📰 Pay-to-play or earned media? O&U CEO Colleen Lerro Gallagher dives into the pros and cons of each in this week’s Association Insights. From guaranteed visibility to the trust earned media brings, understanding these differences can help you shape an effective media strategy. Which approach has worked best for your association? Join the discussion below! #AssociationInsights #EarnedMedia #PayToPlay #PRStrategy #OnWrdUpWrd #Communications
In today’s media landscape, understanding the difference between pay-to-play and earned media is essential. In this week’s Association Insights, I explore these two approaches and when to use each for your association’s goals. 💸 Pay-to-play means paying for guaranteed placement, like sponsored articles or native ads. It offers visibility and control over your message, but is always labeled as paid content, letting readers know it’s advertising. 📰 Earned media is true editorial coverage. When journalists choose to cover your story because of its merit, it’s seen as unbiased and credible, often carrying more weight with audiences. Trust is a major factor—earned media is vetted by editors and journalists, while pay-to-play is helpful for visibility but doesn’t always have the same impact. Both approaches have their place, and knowing when to use each can help maximize your media strategy. 💬 How does your association approach media coverage?
