A targeted media strategy drove 2.55M+ impressions and key coverage—boosting awareness of the nonprofit’s campus expansion.

The Situation

Orange County Music and Dance (OCMD) wanted to spread the news about its campus expansion that would enable it to serve twice its current student body. This was important to share with prospective students/families as well as the performing arts and philanthropic communities in OC.

The Solution

OCMD enlisted Idea Hall to support with media outreach as the lease was officially approved on March 26 by the Irvine City Council. Following the approval, Idea Hall pitched key local media alongside leading music and real estate publications.
