and the technical word is: placements

What should you look for in a PR agency? In the end, PR firms are judged by the press mentions, also known as \"placements,\" that they can get for their clients. As a prospective client, you should, too. Evaluate not only where the client was placed but also what kind of placement they received, e.g. article vs. quote vs. mention. Don\'t be turned off by placements in publications you might not be familiar with; this may have in fact met the client\'s objectives.
