The goal of automotive media relations is to create awareness and credibility for your company by having the media report on your products, objectives, and accomplishments.
Automotive media relations builds your brand, and unlike advertising it doesn’t involve paying publications for exposure. This builds credibility as when the media places your product and press releases, writes about your company or products, or uses your products in videos, the viewers will generally see it as news rather than promotion and that builds credibility.
