IBM Bromont was celebrating its 50th anniversary. They originally asked for a 2-minute sizzle but were looking for it to do a lot of hard work. Ultimately, they wanted to use video content to promote, celebrate the anniversary, and continually educate audiences about IBM Bromont.
From the initial intake, we heard they had several objectives. They wanted PR to publicize the event, garner internal and external audience excitement, and educate. An aging workforce meant their recruitment was dwindling. They were currently using stock imagery for communications, and their sales team needed content. They were also hosting an in-person event for the 50th anniversary.
We applied an innovative Content Systems method. It allowed them to economically tell their story through a suite of assets and achieve their business objectives.
