The organization was looking for association marketing support and holistic digital marketing for executing their mission while also promoting the dozens of events they host each year.

Event Marketing

WBAI hosts dozens of events each year, with an annual event attendance of 2,500+ attendees. Our team works closely with the event co-chairs to develop materials needed for promotion of the event as well as materials needed at the event. For example, we create sponsorship kits, digital and print invitations, ads, posters, event signage, programs, event-branded name tags, and custom email graphics.
