Violet PR

?? Challenge: ArtPride New Jersey sought to amplify the state’s arts and culture sector by launching a completely redesigned JerseyArts.com. Despite the arts’ significant economic impact—generating over $532 million annually and supporting nearly 10,000 jobs—many New Jerseyans were unaware of its full scope. ?? Solution: Violet PR was enlisted to drive media coverage and public engagement, positioning the new JerseyArts.com as the state's go-to resource for arts and culture. Our 4-week campaign leveraged a compelling, data-driven media strategy focused on securing media interviews with ArtPride leadership to emphasize the role of the arts in job creation, tourism, and community enrichment. ?? Results: The campaign generated coverage across broadcast, written, and podcast formats in prominent New Jersey news outlets, including MY9 NJ, NJBIZ, NJ Spotlight News, New Jersey Business, and the New Jersey Morning Show, among others. ??
