Catalyst Communications partnered with Historic Ellicott City, Inc. to promote its 35th Decorator Showhouse, Valhalla, through an integrated marketing and communications campaign designed to build awareness and drive attendance.
Our team developed a cohesive collection of creative materials, including event invitations, postcards, signage, a comprehensive program booklet, print advertisements, social media graphics and promotional videos. Catalyst also created engaging organic social media content highlighting participating designers, special events and Showhouse features, while managing targeted paid social media campaigns, coordinating regional print advertising placements and providing public relations and media outreach support.
Together, these efforts helped showcase the historic property, highlight participating designers and special events, and extend the Showhouse's reach throughout the region.
Why do we rely on Catalyst Communications for our design work? Their team listens, understands our objectives, and translates our thoughts into tangible, useable concepts and strategies—patiently, accurately, on time, and on budget. They’re not just an agency—they’re our business partner.”
