Just do it? Coz I did it!

Despite uncertainties and disappointments, I did it! Overcomed my fear from performing well in PR. I just had to set my heart to it like what I have always been doing to whatever I want to do. Who said I cannot do PR? Well, for a new-comer I think, the results were pretty damn impressive! The media turnout was better than expected and entertaining them was a breeze. I had immediate recognition of being the guy that handled the account.

Compliment for the night:-

"If you did not tell me that you are just into your second month of PR, I would have thought that you have been doing this for ages....."

Reporter

Almost shed tears of joy when I heard that. There was a period that I was questioning myself and my abilities. At the deepest end of the pool, I made it single handedly with little supervision. Had almost no relevant media contacts, I thought I would not be able to get people interested in a party that seemed boring. But alas! I was proven wrong. The media showup was strong with many of them offering me stories even without my asking for one. They had so much confidence in me and the stories that I had interested them in. My product knowledge was not fluff. It was through reading and understanding the client's needs and wants.

Moving on, I wonder what lies ahead for me next week. I will just concentrate on preparing my leave and the post-event admin work.

Thank you all that came to the party and saw little of me. Very much appreciated. *Muacks*
