The PR Apprentice

ASSIGNMENT #3

1. Event Plan: As you know, GovLoop celebrates its one year anniversary this summer. An event will be implemented, so we need a plan! Please work together to create a single plan – PR professionals must work as a team, so get your heads together and start brainstorming.

  • What’ll you need? Well…date, time, location, detailed timeline, creative ideas, strategic partnerships, budget, assigned tasks, event layout/map, invites (who and how) and more!
  • This event will take place the week of June 15, 2009, in Washington, D.C.

2. News Release on “Award Wins”: No teamwork on this one. GovLoop was recently honored, and we need to spread the word. Please draft a news release to include the facts e-mailed to you this week.

Remember a few things:

  • Inverted pyramid
  • News appeal
  • Factual accuracy
  • AP Stylishness

* The next boardroom meeting will be held Tuesday, June 2, at 10 a.m.
