What is the importance of a public relations plan to public relations practice?

Answer:

You know how the saying goes that there are no stupid questions? Well, I'm sorry, but this is a stupid question. A plan is imperative to the decision to expend resources on a program, project or campaign. A plan implies that there is an objective, and you have a game plan to reach it. If you don't have that, there's not much point to PR.
