THE GEM THAT IS

  • This Charlotte, NC, modern art museum has a stunner of a building and “The Firebird” outside is the city’s Instagram star. But as Bechtler approached its 15-year anniversary, its story needed fresh eyes and its PR needed some love.

  • We quickly identified two areas where Bechtler Museum of Modern Art could shine and reach new audiences. First, we focused on LinkedIn, doing makeovers on the page and for the museum’s executive director. Then we developed a content calendar and strategy to attract those who work and live uptown and pass by this gem every day. Second, we identified the stories and storytellers Bechtler didn’t even know it had. We developed a strategy for communicating how the museum is evolving from the story of one prominent family’s gift to Charlotte to a cultural hub for living artists.

  • Bechtler’s LinkedIn followers increased by 30 percent in the first three months of partnering with By George. The page is consistently top for engagement and new followers compared with competitors. Bechtler’s executive director, curator and “The Firebird” have been featured by a number of outlets, including The Charlotte Ledger, The Charlotte Observer, CLTtoday, WBTV and more.

 FAQs

  • People often think marketing, advertising or social media planning are the same as public relations. They aren’t. Public relations is the overall strategy you build to develop long-lasting relationships with your internal teams, your community, the media and audiences far and wide. It’s about building awareness, communicating your mission, growing your brand and protecting your most precious asset: your reputation.

  • First, we’ll have meetings with your leadership and any internal marketing teams to form an initial plan. Then we’ll brainstorm stories and media placements. Don’t worry, we’ll train you and your teams on how to do great interviews. We’ll also discuss ways to get your brand noticed that you may have never thought about. If you need help boosting your LinkedIn presence, we can do that too.

  • Measuring success in PR is more art than science. But you’ll see a difference, sooner than you think. In addition to reports that put your wins in context, you’ll notice your events filled with people, your website and social media accounts getting more hits and people talking about your company and reaching out to you like never before. It’s a refresh for your brand.

DON’T KEEP YOUR STORIES WAITING.

It’s our passion, By George.
