Success Story

Advertising and Brand Project Management

A large hospitality and lodging company contacted McKinley Marketing Partners when it found its brand advertising department short-staffed.

This department was responsible for creating and implementing advertising strategies for the company’s five mid-scale brands, and other marketing programs covering all ten brands in the United States.

Solution

Throughout the life of the project, the IMM:

  • Helped to establish new brand identities for five brands and ensured that those identities were reflected consistently in advertising materials across all channels
  • Established a central repository with guidelines for accepted language and images pertaining to each brand
  • Created reference materials including guidelines for the legal use of marks and specific language for each brand
  • Collected and classified online and offline artwork by brand, date, and channel to enable simple access
  • Worked with brand managers, web content managers, and advertising partners to expand partnerships and opportunities for online promotions and cross-promotions

Ultimately, the IMM was able to develop more cohesive, consistent brand identities throughout a multi-platform advertising program.  

Through her efforts, she created a streamlined, faster process for creating artwork by using simplified procedures, documenting guidelines, and organizing databases of previously created materials.
