This includes positioning their CEO as a credible voice for the Jewish community, someone the media could turn to for insight. In addition, we develop and manage its social media strategy, handling content and community engagement across their social channels.

It played off their “Pizza Well Done” tagline and gave the brand a smart, cost-effective way to build goodwill and spark community engagement around every store opening. The results? The brand grew to more than 60 locations across Florida and the Northeast, with consistent, standout media coverage including USA Today and CNBC, and enough momentum to attract two separate private equity buyers.

Bove Development

The Agricultural Reserve in western Palm Beach County has long served as a protected zone for South Florida’s farming history. As farmers sold their properties, the Palm Beach County Board of County Commissioners drafted a Master Plan to ensure a proper development mix, but loopholes kept the plan from becoming reality. When Commissioners agreed to revise the area’s zoning, Bove Development prepared the first Ag Reserve’s multifamily housing land use application and we worked alongside their leadership and experts to secure a favorable vote. We crafted a compelling narrative and created collateral to garner community and stakeholder support, collecting 130+ letters and public comment cards. Our efforts helped secure approval for the first multifamily housing project in the Agricultural Reserve and was featured on the front page of the Palm Beach Post.

Aventura Mall

We led the national PR program for Turnberry’s Aventura Mall, the 2nd most visited shopping center in the United States for 15 years. We guided the communications programs through two major expansions, including the addition of a 315,000 square-foot, three-level wing that includes a standalone Apple store, 93-foot-tall Aventura Slide Tower, food hall, and a rooftop events venue. Our comprehensive efforts have included developing unique media angles to promote the mall’s events, retailers and promotions within South Florida’s saturated media and retail market, as well as highlighting the center’s growth and continued success to major media, including a New York Times feature story.

Alosant

Since its 2017 inception, Alosant has quickly established itself as a PropTech industry leader and powers apps for 70+ master-planned communities (MPC), including more than a dozen of the nation’s top 50 MPCs. In early 2021, Alosant retained O&G to support its next growth phase, increase its footprint among existing clients, launch new technologies, drive awareness, and capture an even greater market share. We landed a feature story in Urban Land Institute that profiled the company’s growth and several of its clients, as well as work collaboratively with Alosant Founder/CEO April LaMon, establishing her as a thought leader through blog writing and social content creation. In 2021, we branded and launched a new vertical, Alosant Azul Prospect Experience™, and this fall created the Alosant Innovator Series podcast, featuring LaMon as host interviewing developers, tech experts and other real estate leaders.
