Low-cost PR: celebrate a milestone

For a large government company, we’re planning a year of low-budget tactics to announce their 45th anniversary. Our theme will focus on the world as it was when they were founded in 1964. We’ll research the world as it was when they were founded and publize their many contributions to our region—we’ll use public relations to get the word out to the media and the rest of the world. A rubber stamp will cost about $30 to produce—we’ll use it to imprint a 45th anniversary logo on their mailing envelopes and collateral. A special Web page, newsletters, an open house and a series of internal events will round out the PR plan.

PR and marketing have been the focus of my career for the past 30 years. As an ad agency client during the early years, I got to experience a birds-eye view of agencies and the experience wasn't always a good one. When Ideaworks opened in 1995, we were determined to break the mold, and after 15 years, more than 300 awards and hundreds of client referrals, I think we're starting to get there.
