The first quar­ter of 2022 has pro­vid­ed Bell­mont Part­ners with the oppor­tu­ni­ty to work on many mean­ing­ful projects – some con­tin­u­ing long-time part­ner­ships and oth­ers kick­ing off new rela­tion­ships. From icon­ic des­ti­na­tions to local­ly made sal­sa to health­care and more, our team is excit­ed to have wel­comed the fol­low­ing new clients aboard in Q1. Mall of...Read More

We’re thrilled to intro­duce Bell­mont Part­ners’ new dig­i­tal strate­gist, Sarah Schiltz.

As our dig­i­tal strate­gist, Sarah is work­ing across all our indus­try prac­tice groups, serv­ing as a trust­ed resource...Read More

In the last few years, we’ve noticed a sig­nif­i­cant increase of exec­u­tives and lead­ers request­ing our assis­tance with LinkedIn – from pol­ish­ing up their pres­ence on the plat­form to devel­op­ing con­tent for them to help engage with their con­nec­tions and fol­low­ers more deeply. LinkedIn, like all social media plat­forms, is con­stant­ly evolv­ing, and we often find...Read More

Through­out the past few years, while many sum­mer pro­grams have had to push pause on pro­gram­ming, Three­Six­ty Jour­nal­ism, hasn’t stopped mov­ing. This non­prof­it mul­ti­me­dia pro­gram for high school­ers “trains and sup­ports the next gen­er­a­tion of diverse thinkers, com­mu­ni­ca­tors, and lead­ers.” And they know that espe­cial­ly in today’s world, a com­mit­ment to dis­trib­ute the truth is...Read More

Oh, we got trou­ble. Or at least we have for the past two years as COVID has impact­ed near­ly every aspect of all our lives. But as always, a sil­ver lin­ing is start­ing to become clear. Or in this case, I guess, a brass lin­ing – com­plete with 76 trom­bones lead­ing the big parade, with 110...Read More

We all intu­itive­ly know the pow­er of a good sto­ry. It’s what makes us lean in at a par­ty, binge just *one* more episode, or scroll a lit­tle deep­er on someone’s social feed. As humans, we’re fas­ci­nat­ed by oth­er people’s lives and expe­ri­ences, whether dif­fer­ent or sim­i­lar to our own. As mar­keters and com­mu­ni­ca­tors, there’s...Read More

Dur­ing my near­ly 14-year career as a jour­nal­ist, I received my fair share of pitch­es from pub­lic rela­tions agen­cies that high­light­ed the good aspects of a com­pa­ny, prod­uct or orga­ni­za­tion. Some were help­ful. I craft­ed numer­ous sto­ries sparked by an idea from a pitch or report­ed time­ly news from infor­ma­tion gath­ered from these pro­fes­sion­als; how­ev­er,...Read More

The hos­pi­tal­i­ty and ser­vice indus­try took – and con­tin­ues to take – a mas­sive blow due to the pan­dem­ic. Cre­ativ­i­ty and inno­va­tion have been the name of the game for stay­ing afloat amid man­dates and ill­ness. For FINNEGANS Brew Co. – one of the very first craft brew­eries in the Twin Cities – those con­cepts...Read More

I’ve nev­er been a big fan of rodents, but when they come bear­ing com­pli­ments, that’s anoth­er story. When I opened my email last week I was greet­ed with a delight­ful sur­prise: a mes­sage from Lau­ra Numeroff, cre­ator of the beloved “If You Give a Mouse a Cook­ie” books. You remem­ber them: the New York Times-best­selling children’s...Read More

The begin­ning of a new year can be a lot. We’re com­ing off a break, it’s the start of new projects and pri­or­i­ties, and it’s cold. While most of these things are excit­ing (sor­ry, cold weath­er – not you), it can also take its toll giv­en the cir­cum­stances of the past two years. The good...Read More
