COMMENT

One Response to “Announcing PR Daily’s 2022 Nonprofit Communications Awards finalists”

    Ronald N Levy says:

    These people are winners now. One who is named a PR Daily Awards finalist is a winner.

    It’s not just glory but money. Common sense is that if a PR expert or firm is needed to guide nonprofit communications, it makes sense to choose from among the finalists.

    Candidates for communications work sound alike and when you’ve had presentations from enough of them may even start to look alike. The same self-deprecating humor, the same earnest admiration for your cause. But a candidate selected by PR Daily as a finalist is a candidate who has been vetted and acclaimed by experts.

    It’s like a great university bringing you in to give a graduation speech and giving you an honorary degree. Universities may know better than most people who the great ones are, and so do the educators of PR Daily. Also in PR, one can call for a look at the entry that led to a finalist designation and then judge partly from looking at the entry.

    We look online for ratings of restaurants and doctors by raters we don’t know, and it’s even more of a recommendation to see a top rating from PRD.

    Congratulations to the finalists. As ye have toiled, so may ye benefit.
