PR - what does this acronym mean to you?

How big of a splash you can do with it? The size of a splash from the meteorite that killed off the dinosaurs in the Mexican Gulf 66 million years ago? Or barely noticeable?

"As you develop relationships then the journalists will start reaching out to you and you have a back-and-forth dialog" Brought to you by Business Of Apps App industry marketplace Insights App Growth videos App Data App Events A message from App Promotion Summit Discounted ticket prices are currently available on all of our 2024 summits https://apppromotionsummit.com/ London - 25 Apr 2024 NYC - 27 Jun 2024 San Francisco - 26 Sep 2024 Berlin - 5 Dec 2024
