She is adept at building content strategies for multi-channel marketing efforts, designing personalized campaigns that engage audiences at all stages of the journey — from unknown prospect to loyal subscriber.

Her approach to enhancing BroadwayHD’s content marketing would be straightforward.
At every touch point:

INVITE subscribers right onto the stage
TEASE them with the sights and sounds of the shows
ENTICE new subscribers with a free viewing, sign-on giveaway or contest
ROLL OUT value-added features for renewing or premium subscribers
BUILD communities of users
EXPAND and educate a new generation of audiences

Among suggested deliverables:

  • Previews and behind-the-scenes features on existing and upcoming shows.
  • Interviews with a whole host of theater professionals, from makeup artists to composers to producers.
  • Corporate materials for BroadwayHD, lifting the curtain on how founders Stewart F. Lane and Bonnie Comley snagged the deal of the century.
  • On-page web analysis and copywriting, with streamlined preview options, enhanced visual content and revitalized show synopses
  • Development of a rich base of related content (reviews, profiles, podcasts, etc.) for strategic shows — to feed website, newsletters, FB and e-blast campaigns.
  • Planning and implementation of value-added editorial features for premium subscribers
  • Redesign of the Subscribe page to be more benefits-centric
