BRIEF FOR PR & COMMS CREATIVE INDUSTRIES VISIBILITY WORK
Campaign title: Consultant to suggest
Timescale: To run on and offline from Feb 2019-Jan 2020.
Background: Science City York (SCY) has launched the Creative Industries strategy 2019-2024, and as part of this work lack of visibility both locally and nationally/internationally has been identified as a real barrier to growth.
Strategy : With this in mind SCY have embarked on a piece of work to alleviate this. The work will consist of a collaboration between a local film maker and a PR and Comms consultant to work together to showcase 12 businesses in the city over the coming year. Content should include newsworthy activities e.g. cutting edge innovation, awards, new products and services etc. Businesses will be identified by SCY through a crowdsourcing approach. Once a suitable business is identified, the will be the responsibility of the PR and Comms person and film person to produce film footage and a good news story to distribute through industry recognised channels. Each business will have their content produced over the month and once signed off, will be distributed to the appropriate industry recognised channels locally, nationally and internationally as well as on the SCY website and YouTube channel.. Measures will need to be put in place to understand any increase in sales, clients, visibility from the businesses and these are measures the PR and Comms consultant will need to help identify.
Messages: The overall message we are trying to achieve is that York is a hotbed of innovation and high quality creativity as well as being a beautiful heritage rich city. Businesses prosper here and it is a great place to bring your business, to do business and to get good clients. York is inspiring, culturally rich and a great place to develop ideas. York is a great place to have your head office and bring clients to. There is a wealth of young talent to grow your business.
We would like to communicate the traditional York messages – iconic beautiful city – but with a high tech innovation twist demonstrating the city’s vibrancy and strong creative industries sector.
Target audience: There are a few diverse audiences we need to target: (i) creative businesses in London and other larger creative cities i.e. Manchester, Liverpool. (ii) People who have worked in larger cities and now want to start a creative business in a place which is family friendly. (iii) Students so they know the businesses exist before they move away after graduation. (iv) National policy makers such as NESTA, Cabinet Office, AHRC, Innovate UK so they are aware of our vibrant creative sector and finally (v) customers/clients who might be interested in using the services of our local creative businesses.
