Back before the IABC/DC Metro chapter existed, pro communicators in the DMV often found themselves silently singing the Rolling Stones lyric, “I can’t get no satisfaction.” They had nowhere to go. Other organizations just didn’t provide the right fit, because many communicators don’t focus narrowly on public relations, marketing or advertising.
