Propaganda: Propaganda is the manipulation of symbols to transmit accepted attitudes and skills. It
describes political application of publicity and advertising, also on a large scale, to the end of selling an
idea cause or candidate or all three.

Campaigns: These consist of concerted, single-purpose publicity programme, usually on a more or less
elaborate scale, employing coordinated publicity through a variety of media, aimed, at a number of
targets, but focussed on specific objectives. A campaign objective may be the election of a candidate,
the promotion of political cause or issue, the reaching of a sales goal, or the raising of a quota of funds.
Lobbying: It entails the exertion of influence, smooth and measured pressure on other, exercise of
persuasion cum-pressure. In essence, it means a group putting its points of view forward in an attempt
to win the other groups support.

Special events: Arranging and managing press conferences, convention exhibits, open houses,
anniversary celebrations, fund-raising events, special observances, contests, and award programmes.
