Here's another way to tell: Pay-for-play sales pitches are often made directly to the CEO's office, rather than to the company's PR contact. It's usually easier and faster for a reporter to reach the PR contact than the CEO, but the PR pro may act as a gatekeeper. They have a better chance of selling an ego-stroking executive profile without interference from the PR pro. Great post, Cori.
