Background  One month before the International Security and Safety Fair of Spain, FAL SECURITY BOOTS (Spanish leading company in professional boots for firefighters, police, army and the industry) decided to change communication agency.  They started to look for a new agency to help them in their attendance to the top fair of the year.  FAL had very precise PR objectives.  The main goal was to get coverage in the Spanish top prime time TV news the first day of the exhibition.  Their claim for the exhibition was: FAL HAS SUPERPOWERS May, 2010 Project of the Year – LUCA COMUNICACIÓN CORPORATIVA

The Strategy  Create a show to capture the interest of TV Crews at the booth.  Must be attractive, simple and short: Superbadguys vs Firefighters with FAL boots.  Motivate TV heads to place visit to FAL stand in their agendas for individual recordings.  Coordinate internal client team with the agency support for TVs staff attendance and their special requirements.

Our proposal  Organize the show to take place 4 times a day.  Disseminate a press release with the new products and the show taking place during the exhibition.  Record the show and send a video press release to the top TVs.  Edit a clip (1 minute) for TVs web portals.  Coordinate with the Exhibition Press Officer the TV staff arrivals to the show and coverage.  Achieve that the TVs staffs record the show and interview the FAL CEO.

Conclusions  If you are going to a fair and want to capture TV news interest think about preparing a good show.  The price of the show can be a small proportion of the return you can get in TV coverage.  The crisis is over!. Don’t sell good PR cheap unless you have a lot of spare time or want to experiment something! May, 2010 Project of the Year – LUCA COMUNICACIÓN CORPORATIVA
