PR , is process to pave the path for sales team , or we can say its pre -process #1 before sending our sales team .while the marketing communication is the parallel method which accompany the sales process step by step .we can not imagine sales without marketing communication (posters , flyers   , TV \\ Radio communications , Ad's ). but we can do sales business without PR.

The PR is a part of the marketing comunecations

To me, Marketing is more proactive while PR tends to be a bit more reactive. PR kicks in if there is news to report, a community that needs outreach, or a new product to promote. Marketing can help create responses that PR can then respond to. Marketing Communications to me seems more like a two-way conversation while marketing in particular can sometimes seem like the company sending information one-way to the audience.
