Training Services
Part of what we do at Abraham PR is teach. We can do and teach. Really. From teaching blogging courses at the Writer's Center to on-site academic lectures, one of our primary goals is mindshare.
Online Publicity Services
Traditionally, a publicist is a person whose job is to generate and manage publicity for a public figure, especially a celebrity, or for a work such as a book or movie. Publicists usually work at large companies handling multiple clients.
Social Network Profiles are Not Fancy Personal Home Pages
Creating a space for your members to “show off” or “express themselves” is less important than giving members to interact. They crave connection and will pursue any perceived connection such as shared interests, hometowns, movies, orientation, or schools.
The Blogroll
A blogroll is a collection of links to other blogs. Blogrolls are found on most blogs. Blogrolling is the original and most-respected service, although any link list is commonly referred to as a “blogroll”.
People are Already Talking About You
The Internet is neither a place nor a destination. One cannot broadcast to the Internet and there is very little correlation between throwing money at online advertising and building brand equity online.
Consulting Services
The following menu may look expansive, but it isn't. We're a new media marketing and new media PR firm -- with well over a decade of experience in web strategy and emergent technology.
Online Reputation Management and Crisis Response
You can’t control online conversation unless you participate. You’ll never be able to control what's being said about you online like you can with Main Stream Media (the press, TV, magazine, etc). Don’t even try.
About Abraham Harrison LLC
Traditional advertising, public relations, and marketing agencies are spending a lot of money and poaching a lot of talent to convince you they get how to reach folks online, but they don't. They're putting lipstick on a pig. Madison Avenue doesn't get it, 50-year-old firms don't get it, and your local PR shop doesn't get it either.
A Spirited Loop of Central Park is 7.22 Miles of Running

Encrypting your emails is a stupid idea for privacy freaks
If you think that saying "bomb" in your email is a bad idea, try passing an encrypted message.
Lucy Kellaway is an Examplar Bicycle Commuter
Brava, Ms. Kellaway, for doing a much better job of evangelizing pedal bike commuting.
I Commuted to Work on My Bike this Morning
The weather was ideal, the road conditions swift, and the en-suite shower at Edelman DC amazingly convenient.
Smart new book teaches teens that sex is not an obligation
Most young men and women (boys and girls) have sex because they feel developmentally obligated to, not because they're ready.
Search engine optimization (SEO) works like a champ
I collected all of my personal blog articles to-date on Search Engine Optimization (SEO) and have been handing them out to folks who still believe that SEO is snake oil and I thought I would share them with you, too, since most of you students of blogging actually want your words, your passion, and your voice to be heard.
David Gelles Infected by the Purple Prose
David Gelles used to be such a brilliant writer. Sadly, past tense.
Beautiful Night for a Ride and a Walk

Washington is Revenge of the Nerds
Washington men are only interested in possessing the women who spurned them in high school and college.
Juggling glass balls and rubber balls
I love to hear Phil Lader talk about the work-life balance in terms of juggling rubber balls and glass balls, glass balls being family, health, friends and spirit, and irreplaceable.
Make your invisible graphics-intensive or flash site highly visible to google
Chances are that your corporate website is beautiful and expensive. Beautiful websites tend to be rich in graphics, images, photos, and Flash content. They also tend to be shallow with few pages and very little copy. Sites like this are almost impossible for Google to find. If Google can't find you then neither can your customer. Until now. This article helps you turn your invisible corporate website into a high-profile and highly-effective medium for communication. This article is designed to help you turn your stealth website into a big, loud, impressive, bomber of a website with plenty of payload capacity, the payload being your company, your message, your products, your services, and your story.
Purina one is role model for word-of-mouth marketing
I listen to both the Glen Beck Program and Jack Diamond Morning Show and one thing they both have in common is that both Jack and Glen spontaneously wax poetic about their dogs.
