Yup, that was one of our favorite tweets after Monday night’s #FutureofPR launch party at PRSA International, where CEO Peter Granat announced the news that Cision and Vocus were officially merged under one brand, Cision. With the newly merged company, our clients can look forward to benefits like a premium edition of Help a Reporter Out (HARO) and PRWeb, as well as new social media tools with the acquisition of Visible Technologies.
We were very excited to share the news at PRSA, but by far the best part of this announcement came from your reactions on social. We’ve compiled some of our favorites here. Thanks so much to all the great support and love from our PR community!
"The #FutureofPR is here as @Cision & @Vocus join forces. http://t.co/cgxuCLoVvo" Cision is an amazing resource; two is better than one. #PR
