Kleber & Associates Named Agency of Record for Marketing and Communications by Both Gama Sonic and the Marble Institute of America + the Building Stone Institute
ATLANTA, GA (PRWEB) July 28, 2016 -- As the economy re-gains traction for construction and housing starts, two national companies have named Atlanta-based Kleber & Associates (K&A) as their marketing agency of record across multiple marketing services. The selection from GAMA SONIC coupled with the Marble Institute of America (MIA) + the Building Stone Institute (BSI) follow a competitive agency review initiated in 2015. K&A will lead public and media relations, marketing campaigns, web services, and digital media for both companies in 2016.
As of one the select few independent marketing agencies serving the housing and building industry, K&A is well-suited to help increase brand and product awareness through integrated marketing initiatives and public and media relations counsel for MIA+BSI and GAMA SONIC.
"The goal of MIA+BSI is to present educational, authentic, and compelling assertions for the use of natural stone," said MIA+BSI, CEO Jim Hieb. "The Kleber team has more than 30 years of experience working with our target audience and the media, which made them a great fit to assist in our rebranding, content development, and media relations efforts."
MIA + BSI, the Natural Stone Institute, recently combined in January to form a two-year joint venture. In February, MIA + BSI hired K&A to position their branding as the world’s premier natural stone association. Now operating as a consolidated organization, MIA + BSI will focus on a natural stone promotional campaign, a strategic marketing plan and launching a new web site, http://www.usenaturalstone.com, which K&A has launched.
“The experts at K&A will greatly strengthen our brand name to reach customers seeking energy-efficient solar lighting,” said Itay Parness, vice president of sales and marketing for Gama Sonic. “The agency has been building relationships for more than 30 years with editors whose publications reach builders, remodelers and homeowners, so their insight is unparalleled.”
GAMA SONIC is one of the largest companies manufacturing solar lighting and is seeking to expand its product reach among various target audiences. The company has appointed K&A to manage its national public relations and social media disciplines effective immediately.
“It is an honor to be representing two fast growing brands. MIA + BSI have a rich story to tell for the natural stone industry and will revolutionize the marketplace, and GAMA SONIC is a global powerhouse for producing energy efficient lighting solutions. We couldn’t be more thrilled to help these respectable companies flourish,” said Steve Kleber, founder and principle of K&A.
