Monday Morning PR Minute ⏱️

Your weekly dose of PR inspiration

| Read time: 1 minute |

Hi Reader,

I was on a call last week with someone who spent years in corporate comms before moving to the nonprofit side. She came over because she wanted her work to be more meaningful. And she's good at this - she knows what a real communications strategy looks like and how the pieces are supposed to fit together.

The problem is she's running all of it with just one other person.

This Week’s Quick PR Tip: Find Support That Shares The Thinking, Not Just The Tasks

When you've seen how PR and comms work with real resources behind them, doing it without those resources isn't just hard - it's a specific kind of exhausting. You're not guessing about what needs to happen. You see every gap, every missed opportunity, every shortcut you're forced to take because there aren't enough hours or hands.

That awareness is a strength, but it becomes a weight when you're the only one holding it.

If that's where you are, the answer isn't doing more with less. It's finding someone who can brainstorm with you, pressure-test your ideas, and carry part of the load that lives in your head. That's what we do at Orapin - and watching someone's shoulders finally drop because they're not carrying it alone anymore is one of the best parts of this work.

To having the support you need,

Rhiannon
