Rhode Island Creative Magazine's Success Results in Expanded Editions
and Launch of Multi-Platform Sponsorship Opportunities
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Providence, RI – August 21, 2014 – Rhode Island Creative Magazine (RICM), the only
e-publication and multimedia company that connects the creative arts industry and professionals to other business sectors and the public is expanding the number of editions and launching new multi-platform sponsorship opportunities. RICM also announces the expansion of its popular “inspirational speakers” series that features discussions with distinguished creative arts and business professionals, and the ramp up of its student-centered advising program to local schools and colleges and universities.
Founded by graphic artist Kimberly Sherman Leon in 2012 to promote Rhode Island’s creative arts professionals, RICM has become a catalyst for raising awareness of the economic value of the creative arts industry to the state and the springboard of expanded interest and understanding of the abundance of talent and creative energy in the local area. Hundreds of creative arts professionals, business leaders, corporate executives, students and teachers, and other individuals from all walks of life subscribe to the e-magazine, which has realized significant growth in new subscribers with the release of each edition. In addition, there has been a consistent influx of unique visitors to its accompanied website, www.ricreativemag.com. These platforms and the expansion of its social media networks have resulted in an integrated marketing structure that offers multimedia and multi-platform exposure and reach for businesses seeking to attract new customers.
“What began as my passion to share the unique attributes of our state’s creative arts industry, has turned into a thriving business and movement,” said Ms. Sherman-Leon, President of RICM. “Our multiple digital platforms now include business leaders seeking to expand their advertising dollar and opportunities, and have connected freelancers with their next job, while promoting educational events for industry veterans and students. We have reinvented and advanced the knowledge and influence of the creative arts in our community and everyday lives using a combination of digital and traditional media. In turn, our success has resulted in deepening our market reach and strengthening the appreciation and enjoyment the public receives through the creative arts.”
Each monthly issue features information for entrepreneurs, business owners and consumers, and showcases designers, artists, printers, writers, brand and marketing experts and digital specialists. In addition, new advertising opportunities include digital ad placement in the monthly e-magazine and on its website, calendar sponsorship, premiere center spread and editorial opportunity, as well as marketing opportunities across the company’s digital and traditional platforms, including its e-newsletters, social media sites and in-person events and speaking engagements.
