7. There are events which fill a few
days of a life. Then there are
those in which a few days
change a lifetime.
We are no longer a broadcast society. 24/7 multi-platforms create
consistent messaging, engagement and long-term relationships.
Events, media and communities are all integrated to simultaneously
meet the goals of sponsors, hosts, speakers and audiences.
8. Media Platforms for your Message
As a media company rather than an agency, we welcome on-going
relationships with agencies who represent one or multiple clients that want to
reach our audiences. We work with your message and team to create ongoing
campaigns on our own networks, social media and traditional media.
• Cross-platform coverage enables much deeper coverage of a story, longer
lasting impact, and greater audience engagement.
• Event and initiative focused websites encourage and capture interactivity all
year round.
• Networks that enable hosts to have their own radio/video shows within our
broader reach with tremendous education and support for hosts.
• Webinars, hang-outs, live broadcast, or blog posts - we bring people to the
event and the event to the world…
9. Design for Life TV
A makeover show with purpose: Design for Life follows the successful traditional format of a new room from start to finish. But, every
beautiful solution also leads to independence and dignity for every winning homeowner while sharing each heart-breaking and inspiring
story. Specific solutions on every show meet the same needs for homes, public or commercial spaces that millions of others need and
want: design that works for everyone regardless of age, ability or lifestyle. Ongoing interactivity online, in person, in print, and in additional
videos enables the show and related communities to be a center for ongoing engagement. Each room and solution will include curated
Q&A’s, powerful personal narratives, how-to, DIY and tips to make spaces work for every audience-community member and those they
love. We have firm partnerships with non-profit organizations, both local and national, who will reach the greatest number impacted by
each need solved through the show and provide more interest to each episode.
The cast includes talent from well known network makeover shows of regular experts in their trade and known media design expert
appearances. (See our radio guests and online experts for examples.) Through online radio, video, pictures and social media, everyone will
get to know the family before the episode even starts taping. Each show will be supported with products, checklists, photos, interactions
and how-to information to help the educated consumer to making the difference of the cutting edge leaders in the industries. The shows
will also be supplemented by videos and episodes from design solutions in Gail’s own home; challenges she finds; and products she
recommends. Current examples are at www.DesignForLifeEvents.com and www.DemandDesign.net
Audience and support: We have proven reach to the 70 million Baby Boomers set to spend their $14 Trillion inheritance first on staying in
their homes. Simultaneously we reach the industries that serve them, parents of over half American children who are now identified with
“extra” special needs, caregivers, patients, health providers, design professionals and more. Grown out of grassroots demand, we chose
first to understand our audience-communities and learn their needs without outside funding. Just days before starting to tape, we are just
now responding to hundreds of requests from well known brands supplying products, installation and technical expertise. This is truly a
multi-platform, interactive show. The network show is only the hub for 24/7 ongoing interaction and solutions that integrates strong stories
with integrated brand and expert solutions in a way that meets audience demand.
10. Education
There is power in every voice. Some call it narrative learning. Our education
reaches far beyond the repetitive list of expert speakers presenting from the
podium to those listening in the room. After bringing together all the
stakeholders - we then learn from each other.
• Ongoing online education courses related to your event, organization or
initiative including CEUs to help your audiences year-round.
• Learning for all kinds of people from video to print to events.
• Speakers, roundtables, working groups, interactive experiences, the arts,
technology and more.
• Technology sites, apps, resources, books, etc.
• As people learn in different ways and times, we provide your message
across a wide range of formats to enable all of your audiences to gain from
your expertise.
11. Communities and Crowd-Sourcing
Our communities of practice share the same values and overlapping missions
of event hosts, participants and our media audiences. Senserit’s family has
hundreds of community leaders waiting for sponsorship for their thousands of
targeted members; in addition we create communities to reach sponsor
audience goals.
• Volunteer led communities from offline or using our online platforms that
engage with each other and value-add sponsors.
• Crowd-sourcing to identify speakers, guests, discussion topics, research,
scholarships, initiatives and more.
• Media sponsors to numerous national and regional non-profits, partnerships
with associations and institutions to provide media, community, events and
education.
12. Targeted Influencer Event
We personally select and co-ordinate high visibility competitive awards for free
travel, attendance and entertainment at your event for 20-25 highly influential
community leaders. Attendees have an incredible opportunity to connect,
learn, grow and teach.
• In exchange for these “once in a lifetime” opportunities, they write, speak,
promote and share about their experiences before, during and after the
event on their regular platforms using their unique voice.
• Influencers are introduced to your products and services directly and will
promote through blog posts, social media, badges and their established
online and in-person communities.
• Impact a leader, and you reach all the people who trust them.
• Amplify each message and experience to millions.
13. Amplify Your Convention
Whether a convention with tens of thousands of attendees, or a leadership
symposium, every exhibitor, speaker and association puts a tremendous
amount of resources into its success.
We enable this work to have much great reach and success by “in-convention”
services that draw attention to your booth or event throughout the entire year to the
days of the actual event:
• Live broadcasting, speakers and celebrities from your booth
• Vid-Dailies that get create digital highlights when people wake in the morning
• Booth design that creates interactive experiences
• Social Media working labs engage attendees and around the world
14. Collaboration
From the moment planning begins, we identify organizations, companies,
associations, and leaders who share common values, goals and interests. We
clearly identify these shared ideas and create aligned goals that a coalition can
support and work together towards.
Collaboration can begin around an event, a multi-platform media campaign or
a targeted community. Whether the project is the beginning of long term
research, initiatives or policy – the group that supports the clearly
communicated values works together in a spirit of collaboration, learning and
progress.
Creation of a coalition of collaborative public-private organizations to host a
multi stakeholder event. Full access to ongoing resources from speakers and
organizations for all participants.
15. Arts for Healing
As the arts can reach and connect wide ranges of people that other
formats can not, we engage artists in all platforms including music,
fine art, dance, performance and more. We create promoted events
with art and entertainment leaders that are active in causes that are
meaningful to your message and attract engagement with your
audiences.
These events can be live streamed, include speakers and
workshops, and often engage community children in the arts. A
Large evening activity will include performances, exhibits and an
interactive hall that is tied in with the cause.
16. Giving Back
We are social entrepreneurs ourselves and believe that doing good is good
business. Cause related marketing started by the gifting of the Statue of
Liberty in which different countries, private industry, generous patrons and an
inspired public came together to create a lasting icon in the United States. We
continue in that spirit.
At our events, interviews and publications, you are likely to see a broad reach
of inclusion such as: K-12 students, educators and parents; college
internships, the rebuilding of personal homes and public spaces; starting to fix
a problem by working in person and then creating a lasting set of relationships
in which everyone gains. Every valued sponsor at every event also sponsors
at least one full scholar who receives not only free admittance, but full travel,
accommodations and meals.
