Mistakes happen − it’s part of life.  But in PR, editors can be unforgiving and client account errors are more than taboo.  That said, while mishaps happen, we want to know how you’ve avoided them − or if you’ve had a mishap, how did you recover?  Divulge your tips, successes, and stories, and you could be one of two lucky readers to win a Harry & David gift basket!

What do you think are the most common communication mishaps in PR?  What new tools are in place to avoid these errors?   What is your advice to other PR professionals who may make the same mistakes?  Let Harry & David reward your triumph with a basket filled with fall treats.

Winners will be posted on October 28.   To enter the giveaway, post a comment or send your entries to us at thedecoder@prsourcecode.com.
