Influx Marketing was approached by Jesse White, The Illinois Secretary of State, and Ann Jhin, the CEO of Jinny Beauty Supply which is the largest multicultural and ethnic beauty supply distributor in the world, to produce a media alert and public relations campaign.
- Customer: Jesse White
- Company: Illinois Secretary of State
- Industry: Civic, State & Local Government
Client Mission Critical Deliverables
The following media outlets must cover the event:
- NBC & ABC
- Media attended the event remotely with onsite reporters. (Weekend event on Saturday)
- Media alert and PR campaign with a minimum reach of of 1 million
The opportunity for Influx was to showcase our ability to deliver the requested media plus more, especially since this was a Saturday event and they were requesting onsite remote coverage during non-standard business hours.
Why Jesse & Ann Chose Influx Marketing
At Influx, we pride ourselves on our relationships with our clients as well as the results we produce for them. This ultimately puts us at the top of our clients’ referral lists and this PR project was not any different. We were given this as a referral to Mr. White from a former Influx PR Client. They referred us because of the results they needed in a very short period of time. We had approximately a week and a half from project start to completion, to finish the job.
