    Alexi Paraschos Singer & Songwriter Pays Tribute to the Virtual Weddings of the Coronavirus Client Alexi Paraschos: Video Tribute to Virtual Weddings Year 2020 Scope of Work Brand Messaging Development, Public Relations Industry Entertainment Here's the Stitch (aka Situation) An album release during the beginning of the pandemic lockdown wasn't ideal, yet award-winning artist, Alexi Paraschos' music celebrated love in the midst of challenges. Called "blue-eyed soul for the 2ist century," Alexi Paraschos is an award-winning soul, R&B, and pop singer/songwriter based in Philadelphia. He is known for his smooth tenor voice paired with original, catchy melodies, which give him his unique and captivating sound. Inspired by a trip to his father's homeland of Greece in 2018, Alexi wanted to bring awareness to his project, "Love Odyssey" which pays homage to his Greek heritage, and his subsequent wedding engagement to his longtime partner. Our Approach In a 3-month "Love Odyssey" campaign we worked alongside influencer and social media marketing agency, DRTR Agency, to craft a compelling narrative that would not only make R&B fans aware of Alexi, but also listen to the album. To lead our strategy, we leveraged Alexi's existing accolades (i.e. awards, playing at SXSW Music Festival, and successfully kickstarting an East Coast Diner Tour) and notable album features (hip hop veteran, Jadakiss; Grammy-award winner, Chrisette Michele, Natalie Stewart from Floetry and more) to push the leading single, "Mine." Since the release was at the beginning of the pandemic lockdown which halted all performances, music videos and in-person opportunities to generate awareness, we suggested that Alexi (whose wedding was pushed back for the unforeseeable future), spotlight couples who had virtual weddings for the release of the single's video. Our Impact & Client Milestones In addition to a press release, our tailored pitches earned 7 placements on local, regional and national platforms (Estimated impressions: 38M+). 29% of coverage were music reviews, 57% were profiles or features highlighting Alexi's brand story The "Mine" music video featured 30 newlyweds representing sixteen states, six countries, and four continents. Notable media coverage: New York Times, Philadelphia Magazine, ThisIsRnB, and Soul Tracks. The story was also picked up by NECN (an NBC affiliate).

A native of New York’s Washington Heights, independent artist, Swelly, developed a love of music and hip-hop culture from his artistic peers, as well as growing up in Dyckman. Swelly’s music is rooted in his coined saying, “Tryna Get Right” (TGR)—a motto which represents the daily perseverance, built from the rough upbringing he and his loved ones faced. Prior to working with us, his grounded mentality and non-stop hustle granted him the opportunity to share the stage with the likes of French Montana, Lil Durk, Young Ma, and Jim Jones; and earn over a total of 1,000,000 Youtube views on music videos. When Swelly landed a feature with DJ Khaled's We The Best Music Group label signee and multi-platinum artist, Flipp Dinero, he knew it was an opportunity to reach new fans and indoctrinate them into the TGR community. So we went to work: So we went to work: So we went to work: Our Approach To ensure we presented Swelly's relatable story in the most effective and authetnic way, our collaboration started with an audit of his existing brand presence online and production of an elecontric press kit as well as other pitchable materials.

While there, he was able to share his experiences traveling back and forth to Willimantic, and pursue a music career despite adversity When Swelly signed to Roc Nation's independent distribution entity--Equity Distribution--a month into our collaboration, we leveraged the news to secure attendance at Super Bowl LIV weekend in Miami, Florida.

Specifically, BRVC worked on simplifying the recruitment process, streamlining onboarding, and fostering long-term alumni engagement. This was crucial for enhancing the museum's internship programs while supporting a high volume of applications and candidates. With nearly 1 million followers, viral moments, and cultivated influence, Tina Turtle has reached a pivotal point in her brand journey, that involves solidifying her as a fashion and lifestyle content creator. Our Approach BRVC worked with NMAAHC to evaluate their current systems, identify bottlenecks, and implement solutions that improved efficiency and scalability. Our services included project management, systems implementation, administrative assistance, and event planning. Auditing Current Systems: We started by auditing NMAAHC’s existing databases, resources, and workflows to gain familiarity with their program. We identified key bottlenecks and areas of improvement, especially in tracking internship applications and maintaining alumni connections. Creating SOPs and Workflows: To address the identified challenges, we created Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) to document best practices and ensure consistency. We also developed workflows using Asana, which streamlined communication, task management, and follow-ups. Additionally, we implemented a timelining system to ensure that the application process and intern onboarding remained on track. Implementing Systems: We leveraged automated tools to enhance data tracking, manage tasks efficiently, and ensure timely responses. These systems allowed NMAAHC to reduce manual effort while increasing the scalability of their processes Our Impact & Client Milestones Streamlined Recruitment: Through the implementation of efficient SOPs and workflows in Asana, we helped NMAAHC manage 1,300+ applications , reduce processing times, and ensure that candidate inquiries were promptly addressed. This led to record-high application volumes and reduced internal bottlenecks in the recruitment process. Improved Alumni Engagement: By reconnecting with 75+ alumni through surveys, newsletters, and networking events, we successfully launched a new alumni initiative. This kept alumni engaged and turned them into advocates for the program, further enhancing the museum's reputation and community connections. Efficient Onboarding: The redesigned onboarding process for over 60+ interns provided a structured, stress-free experience. By creating easy-to-follow workflows and helping with logistics like background checks and IT support, interns started their roles with confidence, and supervisors saved valuable time. Operational Efficiency & Future Planning: Our work laid the foundation for scalable growth in NMAAHC’s internship programs. With automated workflows, clearer processes, and a stronger alumni network, the museum is now better positioned to continue expanding its reach and improving participant experiences in future cycles.
