It was another successful quarter for Articulation Agency and K. Brunini Jewels. We are honored to announce that K. Brunini Jewels was named the Women’s Jewelry Association’s (WJA) Fine Jewelry Designer of the Year. Katey Brunini and her team accepted the honor in July at the WJA’s 28th Annual Awards of Excellence Gala in New York City. Katey began her acceptance speech by thanking “the entire industry for this accolade” and warning them, “this is just the beginning and there are many exciting things to come.” Articulation supplemented the jewelry design company’s success through the development of an interactive flipbook—compiling all press features into a visually stimulating electronic book and distributing it to important industry contacts. Both KBJ and Articulation look forward to another quarter of much success and creativity.

Articulation recently completed a campaign of press and promotional materials supporting CORNUTI, an exhibit designed to bring together four different artistic mediums. The event, hosted by the Lux Art Institute, celebrated K. Brunini Jewels’ unique designs, and featured another Articulation client, singer-songwriter Marc Robillard, a performance art fire dancer, and Lux artist-in-residence Timothy Horn. The team employed design, copywriting, and online and social marketing efforts as part of a cross-client promotional strategy to generate awareness and anticipation for the event. The affair, which occurred in late summer, was overwhelming success.

In the third quarter, Articulation revisited a production client’s website, updating the site for the company’s recent work creating and populating a press section to accommodate the ongoing string of media coverage. 2 Roosters Media, an award-winning television and film production company, recently completed work on Surviving the Cut, a new Discovery Channel program documenting the intense training of military Special Forces. The company reached out to Articulation for an effective solution to archive and showcase the trailer for their new show as well as promoting their press coverage, including magazine, newspaper and web articles and reviews. In addition, the team updated the home page and productions page to reflect the client’s recent successes.

As social-media evolves to become a must for nearly any marketing plan, it is important to assess your firm’s strategies. In a recent project for an emerging singer-songwriter, Articulation created and leveraged a strong presence on several social networking sites to drive traffic to his website and to other profiles, to gain exposure and listeners, and interact with fans. With most sites now linking to each other through easy-to-use applications, you gain a complex web of avenues to reach your target market, allowing you to engage in ongoing conversations with frequent touches. While Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn are the most common networks, industry-specific communities offer unique audiences, while media-sharing sites like Youtube and Flickr, blogs and forums can be equally effective tools in a multi-tier marketing scheme.

Spurred by their recent giveaway of a free bag of chips for the signing up of new fans, SunChips Facebook page gained nearly 200,000 fans in a matter of days. Following up the efforts with a free song download for all fans and a promise of more giveaways in the near future, the company is set to gain a significant following on the ubiquitous social networking site which could translate to real-life profits. PandaExpress, Baja Fresh, T.G.I. Friday’s, 1-800-Flowers.com, The Children’s Place, and many other companies have also begun using giveaways as a means to expand their fan base, promote their offerings, and build brand awareness. As with any strategy, it is important to assess whether the strengths of your company’s offerings can be effectively conveyed through this type of method before including it in your marketing plan. When executed appropriately, a fan giveaway can be an excellent marketing resource as well as true testament to your product.

Email marketing has certainly emerged as one of the most cost effective ways to keep in touch with both customers and prospective customers. It is also a great avenue for extending brand recognition and emails should be carefully designed, written, and strategically sent. Yet, bounced and unopened emails can result in a waste of time and resources for a campaign. While there is no perfect solution, it certainly pays to develop and maintain your emailing list through creative integrated third party opt-in lists that can be placed on your site and marketed to your target audience. Although convincing people to give you their email address can be one of the most creatively exhausting components of a campaign, it often proves to be quicker and more efficient than other methods of communication. In addition, email can result in higher return of responses and click-throughs and it is easily tracked and measured. Opt in lists serve as a powerful access tool to your client base and as a way to support your branding efforts.
