LOWCOUNTRY MARCH LUNCHEON ANNOUNCEMENT
Setting ROI and Reinforcing the Value of Marketing
Now, more than ever, it is imperative to prove the effectiveness of your campaigns! So we’re pleased to bring a well-known Charleston marketing leader to address how to reinforce the value of marketing and public relations—before, during and after a campaign–Colleen Troy, president of Touchpoint Communications and founder of Brand-Aide in Charleston, S.C.
During 17 years as a PR practitioner, Colleen has yielded placements in The Wall Street Journal, New York Times, Fortune magazine and numerous international publications; she is a winner of the Bulldog Award for Media Relations, a three-time winner of South Carolina PRSA Mercury awards.
Most recently Colleen founded Brand-Aide, a non-profit organization that links freelance media professionals with businesses in need of their services. Prior to founding Brand-Aide and Touchpoint, Troy served as the public relations director at Rawle Murdy and director of public affairs at the NYU Stern School of Business.
Join us at our new luncheon location—Virginia’s on King—for a lively conversation as Colleen offers tips and strategies to help you developed effective campaigns with measurable results.
