Carbon Footie Case Study - Public Relations Campaign Perth


Perth-based Carbon Footie have married financial savings with environmental advocacy by becoming leading Energy Efficiency Specialists in green consulting and energy saving.

Here is a case study on what they are doing.

The marketing strategy was to leverage the installation of a 30 kilowatt solar system into greater visibility and credibility especially amongst potential prospects in sporting clubs.

"Journalists want direct links to images, video and audio content for their stories, with no big emails and no cumbersome digging around," was a key message to come out of the PR industry's national conference being held in Adelaide.

So here is a quick case study on how we provided all this for Carbon Footie's CEO Paul Connell.

The event was the launch of a 30 kilowatt solar panel system for the Osborne Park Bowling Club.
