How many times have you heard someone complain about some inaccurate segment of a news article or radio or television story? Have you ever been upset about a news story and wanted to pick up the phone or write a letter to “demand a correction or retraction?” Do you have any idea about how to go about contacting the media when it comes to requests for corrections?

More Public Relations Advice from the PR Doctor
The reputation of a company or organization is an intangible asset, but it is an extremely important and valuable asset. Some people believe and have written that a good reputation is an organization's most priceless asset.

One may ask what can be done to establish a good reputation, keep that good reputation and when hit by a crisis, repair a damaged reputation?

Well, the “PR Doctor” researched the subject and was referred to a book entitled “The 18 Immutable Laws of Corporate Reputation.

Online business: Build a reputation
When someone is making a decision to do business with you, they want to know about your reputation. A well built reputation will inspire confidence in you. Your service or your product is part of your reputation. Standing behind your product or service helps build a reputation for your online business. Since many online businesses depend entirely on the internet for marketing purposes, your reputation matters.
Are You Building Your Personal Brand?
The term personal branding is relatively young, but the concept is nothing new. Before the advent of the social web and its many opportunities for personal branding we just called it our “reputation.” If you’re old enough to remember building your career before the Internet became social, our reputation followed us from job to job. We used personal referrals through the relationships we built to maintain our reputation. Our reputation was built by our achievements and the relationships we built throughout our career. Those relationships included our peers, bosses, subordinates, customers, trade association colleagues and people in our community.

Personal Branding: Why is it so important?
Whether you're working for an employer, in career transition or a small business owner, personal branding and reputation management is an important aspect of marketing yourself or your business. Perhaps it is the first step and the most important, to really learn who you are (apart from being associated with your company or business). Often, those in career transition and even small business owners realize the importance of having a solid reputation and large network and what that can do for them in terms of leads and opportunities. But many people have really thought about it nor have they invested the time into figuring out their personal brand. As much as we often hide behind them, we're not defined by our companies. We're defined by who we are and how we show up each and every day.
Just Say Yes for Success
Successful people commit to taking personal responsibility for creating their personal and professional success. You can demonstrate your personal commitment to your success by adopting the motto "Just Say Yes!!!" When people ask for your help, give it to them willingly and pleasantly. You'll gain a reputation as a team player -- someone who is willing to pitch in and do whatever it takes to get the job done. A "Just Say Yes!!!" attitude is rarer than you might think. Sunday's Dilbert cartoon illustrated this point perfectly. By saying yes -- and delivering, you will set yourself apart from others and demonstrate your commitment to your career and life success.
Your Reputation: A Dozen Ways to Protect It
Preserving our reputation ought to be a top priority for all professionals. We unwittingly do things on occasion that damage our precious reputation.

Personal Branding: Protecting Your Brand
Our personal lives are quickly becoming a huge set of data points. Naturally, businesses, large and small, are no exception to this reality. There’s really only one sure-fire solution to protecting your personal information, your reputation and even your personal brand – control your information!
The Power of Personal Notes
There are many things you can do to develop a great reputation, establish rapport with clients, colleagues and prospects, and get top-of-mind awareness in your target market--certainly too many things to list here. But few things are as effective (and inexpensive) in accomplishing all of those objectives as personal notes. As a devotee of personal notes, I've even been known to go so far as to call personal notes one of the three "magic bullets" of marketing.
Your Career, Your Responsibility - Individual Branding
Individual branding is critical if you want to progress your career - who’s in control of your reputation at work - you or your colleagues? If you don’t take a proactive approach to building your personal brand in the workplace, you’ll soon find that others do it for you. Whatever you want your reputation to be, you need to have a plan of action in place so that others perceive you in this way. If you sit back and do nothing your colleagues will either consciously or sub-consciously pigeon-hole you. And once you become known as a certain ‘type of person’ it’s difficult to change the way others think of you.
