Coffee Binges And Tech Explosions: Our First Month In PR

As new Account Coordinators at HB Agency, Christine and Taylor put together a few key points they have learned so far about the world of PR and Marketing.

Welcome to the world of PR

All of these things are just part of the PR puzzle.

Stay tuned while we continue to learn how to put all the pieces together!
