PRSA 2017 International Conference

PRSA 2017 International Conference to Feature Volume PR’s Science Communication

Reading Time: 3 minutes

Denver, Colorado (August 10, 2017) – Understanding how people’s brains are hard wired to react to (and interact with) brand, product and corporate communication messages is the key to creating PR and marketing campaigns that generate results.

That’s the core message Elizabeth Edwards, founder and president of Volume PR, will deliver during a professional development session scheduled for the Public Relations Society of America’s 2017 International Conference Oct. 8-10 in Boston. The session, “The Science of Communication: How to Read Your Customer’s Mind,” will be held on the conference’s final day, Tuesday, Oct. 10 from 8:00 to 9:00 a.m., before the morning keynote by digital marketing expert, Jay Baer.

“Today we are bombarded with messages nearly everywhere we go,” Edwards said. “Our phones are constantly notifying us of some new information, we watch TV screens filled with on-screen graphics and even get promotional offers while we’re pumping gas. It’s more important than ever that the messages we deliver really resonate with audiences.”

Edwards’ PR firm, Volume PR, has used proven scientific principles based on behavioral and cognitive science to craft award-winning, attention-grabbing communication programs since the firm was founded in 2001. During the professional development session, Edwards will share real-world examples from the firm’s roster of clients, including top Fortune 500 brands and technology start-ups.
