SBPR CORP. GOES CHIC WITH MARTINIQUE Strategic partnership yields sub-contract to handle
PR for Martinique Promotion Bureau/CMT USA
FORT LAUDERDALE, FL –
(March 7, 2007) – SBPR Corp.,
a South Florida-based PR agency specializing in travel
and lifestyle communications, has added the Martinique
Promotion Bureau/CMT USA to its growing roster of
clients. SBPR will provide publicity and media
relations services for an initial 12-month period to
help bolster U.S. visitor arrivals to the French
Caribbean paradise.
The
new client win is the by-product of a strategic
partnership struck in February 2006 between SBPR and The
MAAC Group, a Boston-based marketing consulting firm led
by 20-year travel industry veteran Melanie Alexander.
Under terms of the partnership, PR services offered by
SBPR are marketed to The Maac Group clients, like the
Martinique Promotion Bureau. Similarly, SBPR Corp.
clients can take advantage of business development,
sales, marketing and consulting services offered by The
Maac Group.
“We
couldn’t be more pleased to be partnering with our
friends at SBPR Corp. to raise Martinique’s profile
among U.S. travelers,” said Alexander. “New nonstop
service from Atlanta on Delta has combined with new
American Eagle service from San Juan to make Martinique
more accessible from the U.S. than ever. Together with
SBPR and the tremendous team at the Martinique Promotion
Bureau, we’re developing several creative initiatives to
grow U.S. visitor arrivals to record levels.”

sales-driven business solutions for corporations
