Who should attend Professional Public Relations Conference?
All major label and independent recording artists, managers, DJs, models, publicists, designers, journalists, record label CEOs and aspiring entrepreneurs.
Why should performing artists and major record labels be concerned with Professional Public Relations Conference?
Long gone are the days when major label recording companies actually train artists how to speak to the press, take time to prepare high-quality media kits and groom artists for success in front of the camera. Professional Public Relations Conference will teach artists the etiquette when speaking with reporters, journalists and TV hosts.
For the major and independent record labels, PPR is a service that we are proud to offer your company. We want to help ensure a return on the investment that you are making in your artist.
Does it matter to major labels if artists are featured in a magazine, newspaper or video show when seeking or maintaining a deal?
Of course; the job of any reporter/journalist is to find hot, new emerging trends. Editorial placement in respected publications signifies the artist’s growing awareness to a desired fan base. PPR will help you to use media coverage to maintain and establish your relevance to the entertainment industry.
Who are some entertainers to secure and maintain lucrative recording contracts, television and motion picture opportunities of advancement due to media coverage?
Rap artist Eminem (The Source Unsigned Hype), Hip Hop duo Mobb Deep (The Source Unsigned Hype), Asylum Records rap artist Tum-Tum (The Source Off the Radar), TV personality Miss New York (Flavor of Love), Asylum Records rap artist Big Tuck (The Source Off the Radar), rap artist Lil Flip (The Source Off the Radar), Asylum Records rap artist Paul Wall, Universal Records rap artist Chamillionaire (The Source Mic Check), Keyshia Cole, Jennifer Hudson (American Idol), Snoop Dogg, Notorious BIG (The Source Unsigned Hype), Interscope Records rap artist 50 Cent (The Source Unsigned Hype), Cash Money Records, Uncle Luke, NWA, Kanye West, Universal Records artist/ actor David Banner (XXL magazine feature/ The Source Mic Check), No Limit Records, Ludacris, T.I., Interscope Records/ Collipark Music artist Soulja Boy (Myspace.com), Mike Jones (The Source Off the Radar), just to name a few examples.
