Crisis Management PR Agency London

Crisis PR Agency

A public relations crisis can take several forms, from humiliating executive scandals to a flood of negative online reviews. Unfortunately, no organization is immune to a PR crisis, and when one happens, businesses are often thrown into a panic. As the media becomes more curious and provocative, the pressure to act—and act quickly—intensifies. The need for a crisis PR agency has, therefore, never been greater.

What Counts as a PR Crisis?

Any business is at risk of failing victim to a PR crisis. According to PwC’s Global Crisis 2019 report, almost seven out of ten leaders have faced at least one business PR crisis in the last five years, with an average of three PR crises. However, according to a Deloitte report, the majority of businesses do not have a strategy in place to prepare them to respond effectively to unexpected events and have not considered working with a PR crisis agency. A public relations disaster can manifest itself in a variety of ways. A product that has been released to the public must be recalled. A company board member makes an offhand remark that enrages the public, resulting in a social media outburst and negative online reviews. A company’s image is tainted when two workers make offensive remarks outside of work. As you would suspect, a significant part of crisis management involves taking proactive action in circumstances that might not appear to be a catastrophe at first glance but may easily develop into a crisis. How you approach these situations reveals a lot about your business and can even decide your brand’s long-term success. A good PR crisis agency knows how to help, and to help fast.

A PR crisis is described as any negative publicity that has a negative effect on your company and your ability to function at peak capacity. Since crises are often volatile and difficult to manage, you must ensure adequate preparation and training, as well as establish a protocol for your team as part of a comprehensive crisis management plan. Having a strategy in place will help avoid and minimize the consequences of a crisis striking your organization when you least expect it.

The first few hours of a crisis are critical, and recovery can be difficult if you don’t have a plan in place that helps you to respond quickly.

Cancel culture is not only real, but it’s growing in leaps and bounds right now. Anyone can fall victim to it too, even companies and individuals that have been previously been admired and respected for years.

There are some easy ways to help you determine if your firm is facing a full on PR crisis. Any and all press about you is negative, social media comments – often across all channels – are largely negative too. Sales decrease, and/or employees begin to jump ship. In a nutshell you lose control of the narrative about your brand.
