Business Communication and 25 Years of PR Evolution: ITBC Communication Reportillustration: Bing AI

Over the last 25 years, communication has undergone a true revolution, driven by the development of broadband Internet and mobile telephony. According to the report "(R)evolution in Business Communication: 25 Years of Change," prepared by SW Research for ITBC Communication, these two factors have significantly altered how companies connect with customers and partners. Internet access has made information transfer instantaneous, while mobile telephony has made communication an indispensable part of daily life.

This approach has become the new standard in many industries," emphasizes Beata Lewandowska, CEO of ITBC Communication, as quoted by Newseria. –. As much as 75% of survey respondents believe that quick brand response to customer needs is essential today. For instance, in e-commerce, companies can offer products to customers even before they finish their searches, thanks to data analysis and instant communication.


Strategies for Crisis Resilience


The report indicates that communication strategies not only support a company’s image but also enhance its resilience during crises. 68% of respondents believe that proper planning in this area helps companies better handle economic downturns. A notable example is brands’ actions during the COVID-19 pandemic, where swift and thoughtful messaging helped maintain customer trust despite market uncertainties.

Findings from the report highlight that communication strategies should align with a company’s long-term goals. In industries such as technology and pharmaceuticals, consistent messaging builds brand credibility and minimizes the risk of losing trust in challenging times.

Beata Lewandowska notes: "Technology facilitates operations, but the foundation of communication remains the values that build human relationships."
