Our RPRS friend Alyssa Parker, Director of Communications at BBB of Eastern North Carolina, Inc., reached out last week to share these two awards opportunities with our membership. We believe all of our member organizations deserve as many opportunities as possible to celebrate their great work, so check out the two award categories now open for entries and if you win, please let us know so we can share in recognizing your organization, too!

As you’re sitting around the dinner table during the holidays, you’ll likely be faced with the question that many PR professionals get from their loved ones: “So…what is it exactly that you do?” Now I know we have our usual spiel to describe the immense […]
Invisible Brands: Switching up our Monthly Lunches
We know getting away from the office in the middle of the day can be hard, so what better way to switch up our lunch meetings than meet up for wine after work? We had so much fun sipping wine, eating pizza, and chatting with our guest speaker, Chris Martin, VP of Creative at G&S […]
