1
INTRODUCTION
Meet with the client to become acquainted with the executives and staff involved, and to learn more about their product/services.

RESEARCH
Interview key executives and staff to determine the desired goals and client deliverables. Then evaluate PR strategies, plans, and time frames to achieve these deliverables.

RECOMMONDATIONS
Outline high-level recommendations and realistic, achievable deliverables for the client. The client retains BIPR and agrees to the frequency of interim progress reports.
