This issue was taken up during the Naked Truth discussion the other night with a similar take coming from Seth Godin's blog this week.
The bottom line for entrepreneurs: Hiring a good PR firm is a paradox. The few that are worth having probably won't give you the time of day. Resorting to a lesser second choice nets you an over-extended firm that doesn't do justice to your message and sucks up valuable re$ources. I've found that a better compromise is to find a trusted independent operator with good contacts who can partner with you to selectively spread the word. In doing so, you keep closer tabs on the message while taking advantage of your PR agent's contacts.
