Here's an oft-asked question in corporate boardrooms and executive retreats: "How much should we spend on PR?"The real answer depends on the ROI of your PR efforts.
- What is your SEO worth? Look in your web analytics to see what your conversions from SEO are valued at.
- What is word of mouth worth to you?
- What is the value of your email list and added subscribers?
- What is increased PPC CTR worth?
- What is new website traffic worth?
- What about conversions from social media?
- What are inbound links and the traffic they bring worth?
Sum up all of the different marketing metrics that PR impacts and their respective returns on investment (which is a lot more work than a simple sentence might indicate, but it's so important to do). Then spend until you hit diminishing returns that no longer justify increasing expenditures beyond that point. For example, if the first X dollars spent on PR brings in X + 25% in value, it'd make sense to continue increasing your spend - after all, you're making money. Increase that until you start to approach break-even territory, then maintain the spending there and watch it carefully.Obviously, this strategy breaks down fairly swiftly if you don't know what the ROI of your PR is. Invest the time, energy, and resources in determining that first if you don't already have at least some sense of what the impact has been!

What’s a Rich Text element?
The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.

Static and dynamic content editing
A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!
How to customize formatting for each rich text
Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.
