Music and PR meeting recap

Evan Bailey, operations manager of The Tannery and assistant professor in the Public Relations sequence at Kent State University, spoke to a packed PRSSA Kent meeting Wednesday evening.

Music in the PR industry was the night's topic. Bailey works with entertainment companies to create promotional materials for the concert industry.

Bailey gave students insight on working within the field.

"If you don't like checking your email every two minutes, don't go into the PR music and entertainment industry," Bailey warned.

Bailey clued students in on how the industry works.

"PR professionals must work closely with management and record labels."

The next PRSSA Kent meeting is October 24, with Chris Sledzik from Marcus Thomas LLC speaking about becoming a young PR pro.
