Hanser & Associates Spotlighted Among America’s Leading PR Firms
Iowa Firm Featured on PR Web Site
DES MOINES (August 13, 2004) – Hanser & Associates is profiled this month on www.prfirms.org, the Web site of New York-based Council of Public Relations Firms, a trade association representing 100 of America’s leading public relations firms. Des Moines-based Hanser & Associates is a Council member and one of Iowa’s leading PR firm.
“Featuring our firm is a big honor for the practice of public relations in the Midwest,” said Ronald Hanser, APR, president and principal of Hanser & Associates.
“First do the right thing, and then talk about it – that is the basis of sound public relations,” Hanser says in the site’s Member Profile.
Hanser also authored a brief article regarding reputation management in the online Member Spotlight. He comments, in part, upon The Wall Street Journal editor Ronald J. Alsop’s new book about Corporate Reputation, describing how the book presents a convincing argument for building and maintaining reputation as a top management priority.
“The book’s lessons distilled: Do the Right Thing for key constituents, especially customers, and all other laws of managing corporate reputation pretty much fall into place,” Hanser said.
