Challenge
Star Staffing is an award-winning women-owned & operated firm and a highly respected leader in the employment industry in Northern California. Already known in the North Bay area, these tech-savvy entrepreneurs wanted to make some noise as they broke into a new market in greater Sacramento, CA, Napa, Modesto, Lodi & Fairfield areas with new offices. The goal being to be known so that each time they approached a business Star would be immediately trusted and well-received.
Fast forward – we continue to get press that ensures their reputation proceeds them – before they enter a room the company name is immediately trusted.
Strategy
Our goal was to make a big splash introducing Star and excite the public about their unique brand and presence. We made use of their talents, including the book written by the CEO about her journey to success, the fact that they were a female owned and run business with a young fresh take on the staffing industry and use of technology. All those aspects proved extremely effective in getting INK to tell the story of these powerhouse businesswomen from the North Bay.
We established new media relationships for them for an ongoing dialogue about their work and brand strength that continues today.
