Happy Beverly Hills Day!

Posted in Advertising, Advertising and Marketing Consultants, Branding, Company News, Internet Marketing, Los Angeles, Marketing, Public Relations, Quick Tips, Social Media on September 2, 2010 by 360creativeinc

Today is September 2, 10 or 90210. Beverly Hills has been a great home to us here at 360 Creative, Inc. The city is booming with commerce and the architecture and weather are beautiful. As a place of business we chose Beverly Hills because of its rich history and the city’s self branding. Beverly Hills is known throughout the world as one of the most wealthy and beautiful places in the world and their status as the “Golden Triangle” certainly is no mistake. The thought of the city conjures up images of golden signs, brick sidewalks and high-end stores such as Prada or St. John. So today we celebrate Beverly Hills, a beautiful city and home to 360 Creative, Inc.

We are happy to be located in Beverly Hills on Wilshire Boulevard. Call us to learn about the marketing, advertising and design services we offer. 310.461.3519

True, The Hurt Locker was one of the most critically acclaimed films of last year. But it did face Oscar competition from much bigger films, and it originally opened in June, several months before most Oscar contenders did, meaning it may not have been as top of mind come voting season. To its benefit however, the film was rolled out across the country all the way through Oscar season, and by never being shown in more than 500 theaters at a time, marketing could be more targeted, says Nancy Kirkpatrick, president of worldwide marketing for Summit. The campaign was primarily public relations driven, with a heavy emphasis on the film’s glowing reviews, to allow word of mouth to steadily grow as the film played in more and more theaters. But from an Oscar marketing standpoint…
