Event Production Network (EPN)
EPN’s Thought Leadership Delivers Business Opportunities
Challenge
The Event Production Network (EPN) (formerly RSN), the North American standard for premier live event staging companies, needed a marketing strategy to position the association as a thought leader, expanding its reach and generating business opportunities for members.
Solutions
CMA positioned EPN as a resource for event planners through its thought leadership strategy, which included blogs and media relations to direct prospects, event and meeting planners, driving prospects down the sales funnel to members’ websites. Instead of telling the world that EPN member companies represent the best of the best in the industry, CMA created platforms where the nation could see for themselves why they are premier live event production companies.
RESULTS
In 12 months, CMA helped EPN move its prospects down the sales funnel:
- EPN’s blogs drove 2,049 prospects to 2,189 pageviews
- Prospects invested nearly 104 hours consuming EPN content
- 2:41 minutes on average spent reading blogs
- 762 visits to member sites generated through the website
Through targeted media relations with top-tier industry publications, EPN was positioned as a thought leader, building credibility for its members. Thirty-five placements garnered 350,000 impressions with top mentions including:
- Successful Meetings
- NorthStar Meetings
- Associations, Conventions & Facilities
