When Canoe approached Green Olive Media, the concept had a large following of devoted fans in Atlanta and an established history of culinary excellence. However, the client wanted to expand its reach beyond Atlanta and garner national recognition. Green Olive Media set forth a cohesive marketing, event and public relations plan in order to further grow the restaurant. Green Olive Media saw the opportunity to set Canoe up for success via internal event execution,  marketing and public relations initiatives focusing on national and local outreach (a strategic mix of media relations, email and social media marketing, and specialty event programming), and email marketing.

Green Olive Media implemented robust communications strategies in local and regional markets nationwide to present Salata to as many key stakeholders and press representatives as possible to support grand openings, grow ​the consumer base, garner traditional and non-traditional media coverage, develop social media awareness by way of social media influencer engagement, create brand ambassadors and extend word-of-mouth reach that generated awareness, understanding and excitement for the brand.

Market integration began with research including the development of target press lists for local and regional outreach including media outlets and representatives as well as social media influencers; target lists of local dignitaries to solicit for ribbon cutting ceremony attendance and participation including but not limited to municipal groups (Mayors, City Council members, etc.), social groups (women’s leagues, etc.), business groups (Chambers of Commerce, Business Associations, etc.) and more; and nonprofits to solicit for brand building partnerships and community integration.

Green Olive Media drafted and distributed grand opening announcement press releases and media alerts, managed all press inquiries, and coordinated any requests for photos, interviews or on-site visits including complimentary meals and site tours.

Green Olive Media proposed, planned, coordinated and activated strategic brand-building events to support NROs including grand opening ribbon cutting ceremonies hosting area dignitaries and VIP parties hosting key press representatives, bloggers and social media influencers.

GOM coordinated and managed the runs-of-show in advance of the events and served as day-of, on-site operations managers.

On a national level, Green Olive Media proposed and coordinated opportunities for social media marketing campaigns in partnership with social media influencers, capitalizing on the unique value proposition of Salata as opposed to its competitors.
