How a business is perceived in the eyes of the public will always play a critically important role in mapping its future.  Even in the case of non-profit organisations and businesses that do not work directly with the public, maintaining strong and positive public relations is of pivotal importance. To build a glowing reputation with the public is to establish long-term strength and viability as a business. To fall out of favour with the public in general is to cast aspersions on the future of the business in general. Organisations the world over rely on the skills of exquisitely-competent PR professionals to monitor, analyse and ultimately control public opinion to protect and promote brand-reputation.
