The PESO Framework | Ep #41
Manage episode 390558668 series 3375214
The value of the PESO for your health communication work may be far greater than you think… if you’re talking about the PESO Model created by public relations professional by Gini Dietrich. In this episode, we unpack the four types of media in the acronym PESO—paid, earned, shared, and owned—and the role each one plays in an effective communication strategy. We’ll also talk about why the rationale behind your media choices should include more than just cost, especially if you need to build audience trust. This is the first episode in a brief series on media relations in public health communication. Over the next few episodes, we will focus on practical steps to gain earned media, which is sometimes the forgotten stepchild of media use in public health, but could be one of the most important and effective pieces of your communication toolkit.
