Alzheimer's Project: Appreciation Day

Happy hump day! I know these images have already been featured on the blog, but I wrote a blog post for The Pod Advertising found here and wanted to share it with you guys! Don't forget to check out all the hard work I've been doing and if you haven't already please "like" The Pod Advertising on Facebook!

  
PS: I am currently booking sessions for Thanksgiving break and early December, if you'd like a slot email me (or call me - whatever you prefer).

Last year, The Pod helped to rebrand Alzheimer’s Project, a local non-profit organization based in Tallahassee, Florida. The goal of Alzheimer’s Project is to provide support for families dealing with Alzheimer’s Disease or related dementias in the Big Bend. They do this through support groups, respite care, referrals, counseling and education. And all their services are FREE.

Each year Alzheimer’s Project holds “Caregiver Appreciation Day.” This special event honors caregivers with the opportunity to take time for themselves and relax. Local service providers offer manicures, legal advice, eye exams, massages, and make-up. Lunch is also provided. And did we mention it is all free?

“Caregiver Appreciation Day” is one of Alzheimer’s Project’s signature events. Not only does it pay tribute to the tireless efforts of caregivers, but this event also perfectly aligns with their overall mission to support families dealing with Alzheimer’s. They consistently earn valuable media coverage, and the photos from the event serve the organization year-round for publicity purposes.
 
Are you maximizing all the promotional opportunities when you host an event? One of the most effective assets you can leverage from an event costs little to nothing: candid photography. Smiling, happy faces are a powerful way to tell your story, so don’t miss the chance to stock up on digital images for marketing purposes.

 Also, don’t just stockpile the photos; use them liberally! Photos make nearly any report or presentation more interesting, and social media fans love sharing images. The news media also appreciates press releases with ready-to-publish photos, especially for use online.  Best of all, your website will come alive with your brand story with every new snapshot.

*******Need help? The Pod offers a range services from event photography to commercial advertising photos to corporate portraits.



What do you guys think? Good, right? XOXO Julia
