The Pitch: Advertising and marketing news for 4.28.20

 

The Martin Agency launched a new campaign for Virginia Tourism Corp. The campaign includes a video filled with “reverse postcard”-style images of state tourism destinations telling viewers that they wish they were there. The video is being pushed out via Virginia Tourism’s social channels and on in-state TV with help from Virginia Association of Broadcasters.

The campaign includes a downloadable toolkit in which local businesses can create their own content and reminders for patrons. Creative Director Adam Stockton led the agency’s efforts, which used existing library footage and photography and was completed in days with zero dollars spent on sourcing assets.

Martin also launched a new campaign for UPS. Called #ThanksForDelivering, the campaign encourages messages of gratitude between delivery companies providing vital services and their customers amid the virus pandemic. 

The Hodges Partnership hired Hannah Robinson as an account coordinator. She was previously a media relations coordinator at JMU, her alma mater. The PR firm also hired Julia Surber as an account executive. She was previously with Golden Word.
