During the 2023 Session, we worked with the National Alliance on Mental Illness in Maryland (NAMI – MD), to deploy Advocacy Action Alerts, which enabled constituents to contact their legislators on key issues being considered before the General Assembly. We developed messaging and integrated an advocacy outreach system through five targeted campaigns.
The result: Over 2,900 emails were sent to Maryland General Assembly Members urging support of critical legislation that would impact mental health in the state.
For the second year, Compass PR coordinated branding and media relations for the Minority Business (MBE) Night in Annapolis. This year’s event attracted over 700 businesses from throughout the state and featured top state officials including special guest Governor Wes Moore. We developed the website, print and digital signage, program collateral, and facilitated media coverage.

On Tuesday, June 28, 2022, Maryland’s Montgomery County Black Chamber of Commerce hosted several Black and minority businesses for an emergency townhall to discuss contracting opportunities and MBE participation within the Montgomery County, Maryland government.
In a short marketing window, the Compass team served as the lead public relations arm for the townhall, providing the following services to make this gathering :
Our Compass PR team led the branding and marketing efforts for the 2022 MBE Night. Over 400 minority businesses joined in Annapolis on Thursday, April 28 for an evening centered around opportunities in procurement and capital.
The event featured a host of state legislators, state agency officials, panel discussions, and a presentation from the U.S. Small Business Administration. It was an honor to work on this event from start to finish.
Throughout the process, we established a brand identity, designed all marketing collateral, and developed an all-inclusive website (www.mbeannapolis.com), allowing attendees to register, access key event information, and view media from previous MBE Nights.
Every day we receive tons of emails. From breaking news to product launches to event reminders, we are constantly inundated with content from individuals or brands in hopes of us taking an action; However, that isn’t always the case because not all emails get seen!
So, what motivates us to click on an email when it arrives in our inbox?
The truth is that emails are only as good as the reader who views them. You could be offering the deal of a lifetime, but your messaging needs to grab your reader’s attention.
Compass PR is here to help with your email marketing with just 5 easy steps!
