What we’ve been up to lately

The students at CBA are just like students at every other private or public middle school or high school … except when they aren’t. Like when its time to put on the uniform and get serious about the day’s studies. Or time to march in formation at a Veterans Day parade. Or when the National Anthem is played before a game.

Since partnering with POSTMKTG, CBA has seen a 42% increase in enrollment , raised $10 million across two successful capital campaigns, introduced a new annual giving day which raised an astounding $604,000 in 16 hours in 2023, redesigned its bi-annual magazine, revised and relaunched its website (twice!), added several scholarship programs and reengaged its alumni and supporter network.

The history of women in education since the mid-nineteenth century has been lovingly preserved in a temperature-controlled archive at Academy of the Holy Names in Albany, New York. But folders, photos, racks of uniforms and shelves of yearbooks don’t, by themselves, tell a story.

For the story, AHN turned to POSTMKTG.

With a command to “bring home the dome,” on May 12, 2023, CBA shattered its BronationDay record, raising more than $605,000 in just 16 hours and putting a big fat exclamation point at the end of its 2-year, $4,000,000 capital campaign.

Though the pandemic is waning, with inflation up, too many New Yorkers are still struggling to feed their families. This video, part of an ongoing print, PR and social media campaign, was produced on behalf of Feeding New York State to boost community awareness and engagement, and encourage viewers to sign a petition asking government officials to support continued full funding of hunger relief programs.

It’s a balance. We’re in business. And for the most part that means trading services for a fee. But occasionally we’ll cross paths with an amazing organization doing amazing work that just needs a little help building a professional website.

Recently, we adopted two: The Underground Railroad Education Center and the Joshua Project of Schoharie County.

The girls are back in their full TikTok-inspired glory in POSTMKTG’s latest “Be You! Be Anything!” promotional campaign on behalf of Academy of the Holy Names. Four brand new social media-friendly spots, which will also air on TV, because, well, that still sometimes make sense.

POSTMKTG client Feeding New York State wanted to record a recent drive-thru pantry which took place within sight of New York’s Capitol building to highlight the ongoing need for state-funded support. Conceived, produced and edited in 7 days, the campaign made its appeal while the ground was still frozen.

The College Experience is an experience not just for its students, who get to live the college life, begin careers and gain the skills necessary to live independently, but also, and maybe more so, for the parents of students. In a series of unscripted testimonials, POSTMKTG helped TCE parents tell their stories. Stories of pride. Stories of surprise. Stories of wonder at the independent people their previously very dependent children have become.

1.2 billion pounds of produce goes to waste every year in New York State. But can anyone imagine 1.2 billion? Using old school cel animation, we produced this charming video which will serve as the centerpiece of an annual campaign focused on moving more produce to the tables of hungry people.
