A PR a vállalati marketingkommunikáció speciális területe. Feledata, hogy megszerezze és megtartsa azoknak az embereknek a megértését, megbecsülését amelyeknek véleménye befolyásolja a vállalat vagy szervezrt helyzetét. Értékeli a közvélemény magatartását, hogy a vezetés a politikáját ehhez igazítsa, és így nyílvános megértést és támogatást nyerjen a maga számára. A PR-ba befektetett kiadások nem adnak el közvetlenül, céljuk tájékoztatni, bizalmat ébreszteni, jó hírnévre szert tenni. Korunkban a piacon élesebb a verseny, a termelők jobban függésbe kerülnek a vevőiktől, gyorsabb az infoáramlás, nagyobb szerephez jutott a közvélemény. Ez arra késztette a marketingszakembereket, hogy keressék a közvéleménnyel a kapcsolatot, beszéljenek és beszéltessenek a válalatról, termékeikről etc

PR is a special area in a company’s marketing communication. Its task is to gain and preserve the understanding and appreciation of those people whose opinions influence the position of the company or organisation. It assesses the conduct of the public opinion so that the management can adjust its policy to it, and in this way it can gain public acceptance and support. Money invested in PR does not sell directly because its objective is to inform, inspire confidence, and acquire good reputation. Today competition has become more fierce, producers are more dependent on their clients, information flows more quickly, and public opinion has gained more ground. This made marketers to seek the relationship with the public opinion, talk ad make others talk about the company and its products.
