Situation
Penta was retained by an entertainment-focused generative AI startup ('the client') to help launch their company. Even with an innovative suite of products, the client needed to identify a brand and positioning that would appeal to customers unfamiliar with artificial intelligence — even as it distinguished them from competitors in a crowded marketplace.
Following their successful launch, the client retained Penta to support it through a series of partnership announcements in Hollywood and beyond.
Our Approach
Penta conducted extensive competitive research to inform branding ahead of the client's launch.
Following the launch, Penta developed and implemented a comprehensive communications strategy, including:
- Weekly media pitching
- Quarterly report on the state of generative AI
- Regular appearances by leadership at events and conferences
- Social media content for LinkedIn, Twitter and Instagram
Impact
For the client’s launch and subsequent partnership announcements, Penta:
- Shaped and earned media coverage in outlets such as Axios and the LA Times, helping to expand user base by 2.5+ million
- Drafted two installments of a widely-read quarterly AI intelligence report
- Vetted and amplified founder appearances at three speaking engagements
- Developed an organic social media strategy that has helped the company and its founders become recognized voices on LinkedIn
