I'm currently a Product Marketing Manager and thinking about transitioning into a PR role in tech. I have experience in Growth Marketing (mostly lifecycle) and I started my career in Influencer Marketing for a D2C agency.
I've been working in tech for close to four years now, two of those as a PMM. I love certain aspects of my job, but the more I read about the responsibilities of a PR specialist, the more I think it's something I'd actually want to do.
Problem is, whenever I try to find out what a day-to-day in PR looks like, I get mostly videos and posts from people in the beauty or fashion side of PR, which is super different to what I'd be responsible for.
I'd love to know what the day-to-day of a PR specialist looks like working in the tech industry - either in-house or agency side! I'm trying to understand if I am “romanticising“ PR a bit, or if it's actually something I'd enjoy doing day to day.
