Marketing, Critical Path
Getting the word out about a company or event or placing the focus on a specific personality requires a well-thought-out marketing campaign. This begins with the creation of a critical path, which Communications MJC oversees according to the client’s precise needs.

Internal Communications
Many companies produce their own internal publications to keep employees fully informed. In conjunction with management, Communications MJC will determine the best formula to meet individual needs.

• Being comfortable in a media interview situation does not come naturally to most people. The Communications MJC seminar will enable you to better understand and interact with the media, both press and electronic by demystifying how the media communicate.

• There is a tremendous need for those individuals who serve as the main spokespersons for organizations to have a better understanding of the media. Being prepared to deal with the media is a vital asset.

• Do you know what to say and how to say it? We’ll equip you with the necessary tools to respond concisely and eloquently to media inquiries.

• For your target audience, we encourage the attendance of secretaries and executive assistants, along with your organization’s spokespersons. Our experience has shown that these employees can contribute significantly to the overall media strategy.
