5 things PR pros should do this summer

Both are dedicated times when you stop each year to focus on clearing out the clutter and reorganizing.

While it’s hard to slow down in the PR world, summer can be the ideal time to take a break and clean up the shop. Add it to your Outlook calendar and tackle those things that will make life easier.

To ensure it’s manageable, focus on a few simple items. In one week, for example, you can accomplish five core tasks that can help make your job easier.

1. Sort through your contacts. Make sure contact information is up-to-date and eliminate duplicates in Outlook.

2. Renew your memberships. Professional development is a must and is also a great resource. Check your memberships to make sure they are current.
