    OUR EXPERTISE

    Media Relations

    Media is the mother of all influencers and to quote Marshall McLuhan, “The Medium is the message”. As a platform for convergence of the most influential of influencers, media exercises immense power over public opinion.

    The Indian media landscape is staggeringly diverse. With a whopping 90,000 registered newspapers published in 40 languages, and over 700 TV news channels, we present a unique market for media consumption. Over 90 per cent of media consumption is in regional languages; of the 10 largest circulated newspapers, only one is English.

    It only gets more complex when we factor in the explosion in digital media and the rise of online bloggers, editors, and activist-influencers. Media is directly connected to the socio-political landscape of a country and ours presents precarious changes. Be it the corporatisation of media houses, paid news, ownerships increasingly concentrated with business houses and political entities, or a general lack of rigour combined with slow legal redressal, the media dynamic exhibits unique challenges.

    As a PR firm with expertise in media relations, communications & PR, Adfactors PR is in the business of influencing the influencers. Navigating such a media environment requires local knowledge, expertise, relationships, and a sound engagement capability.
