<\/a><\/p>\n\u00a0 \u00a0 Sorry, but I’m not hanging around to log in because I can’t remember if I have a Fast\u00a0Company account. I’d have to dig around for my login name and password. If I don’t have one, I’d have to register. And that’s way too much trouble.<\/p>\n So instead, I’m criticizing the magazine and its dumb policy here.<\/p>\n Media outlets, by the way, seem to be the worst offenders. Many newspapers, which are dying<\/strong>, force the few visitors they have left to create an account before commenting at their blogs or websites. I’m a former newspaper editor. Before I left the business 17 years ago, I was appalled by the “screw you” attitude and awful customer service that permeates the industry.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n My Ideas for Publicizing Your Publicity<\/strong><\/p>\n Here’s what I would have written at the Fast Company blog. These ideas work for any PR campaign, not just B2B:<\/p>\n Those are my ideas. Add yours to the list. Or explain why you think media outlets and others have idiotic policies that make readers log in.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n My Special Report #13: How to Recycle Your Publicity<\/a>, has many more ideas on this topic.

That’s what happened to me just now when I read the article 10 Ways to Amplify a B2B PR Campaign<\/a>\u00a0by Wendy Marx at Fast Company’s blog. I love her list! She invited comments. And I had four more ideas I wanted to add.<\/p>\n\n
