Weeks ahead of the event, Agency Entourage cultivated an online following of attendees and industry-related people. Agency Entourage heightened Allegiance Capital’s profile by working with the onsight videographer to interview keynote speakers at the conference (like Ben Stein), establishing a hashtag on Twitter, interacting live from the event with attendees, live blogging during presentations, and shooting and uploading YouTube videos during the event.

The “Beyond the Podium” campaign made it possible for Allegiance Capital to discuss news and forecasts of the industry with individuals at TX ACG Capital Connection, as well as those who were unable to attend the event in person.
