Cli­mate change is one of the biggest and most urgent chal­lenges of our time, and we need every­one to do what they can to address it. Our envi­ron­ment affects every aspect of life, from our food, to bio­di­ver­si­ty, weath­er pat­terns and more, and every­thing we do indi­vid­u­al­ly con­tributes to what kind of world we live...Read More

No mat­ter your indus­try or what you’ve achieved in your career, know that you can always ben­e­fit from hav­ing a men­tor. And like­ly, some­one else could ben­e­fit from hav­ing you as a men­tor as well. But why? Why is men­tor­ing so valu­able? And how do you find a men­tor or become one? Read on, and...Read More

As we mark one year since the start of the pan­dem­ic – and a very event­ful news year – we want­ed to take time to reflect on what has changed and what has remained the same when it comes to jour­nal­ism and media rela­tions. We reached out to some friends in the media – WCCO-TV...Read More

We’ve spent the last year help­ing our clients spot­light all the ways they’ve piv­ot­ed their oper­a­tions and inno­vat­ed to meet the needs of our new world. One client that has been rec­og­nized for the many ways they’ve sup­port­ed the indus­try and local and glob­al com­mu­ni­ty this past year has been Digi-Key Elec­tron­ics. Right away when...Read More

One of my favorite things about work­ing at an agency is the vari­ety – from the amount and type of clients I get to work with on a week­ly basis, to the range of skills I get to flex. One day I can be coor­di­nat­ing sto­ries about a university’s inno­v­a­tive pro­gram with local media and...Read More

Curios­i­ty is a trait all of us here at Bell­mont Part­ners share, which bodes well as we often take deep dives into many dif­fer­ent indus­tries and orga­ni­za­tions for our work. Beyond our dai­ly learn­ings at the (home) office, we also enjoy immers­ing our­selves in read­ing to learn some­thing new, find an escape, and work to...Read More

For near­ly a year, COVID-19 has changed the world, from the way we live, work and trav­el, to how we enter­tain and cel­e­brate events. And the biggest sport­ing and pop-cul­ture event of the year, Super Bowl LV, was no exception. In Sep­tem­ber 2020, Bell­mont Part­ners and our part­ner Cahill Com­mu­ni­ca­tions kicked off plan­ning with GENY­OUth, the...Read More

The COVID-19 pan­dem­ic has forced com­pa­nies of all sizes to reassess their oper­a­tions, includ­ing how a pub­lic rela­tions or com­mu­ni­ca­tions agency fits into the mix, and tak­ing a hard, hon­est look at the val­ue a rela­tion­ship with an agency provides. For Bell­mont Part­ners, the past 10 months have rein­forced much of what we already knew to...Read More

Good­bye (and in many ways, good rid­dance!) to 2020 – and hel­lo, 2021! The chal­lenges that came our way in 2020 may have cre­at­ed some chaos and con­fu­sion, but they also pro­vid­ed oppor­tu­ni­ties and shed light on areas that could use fine-tuning. The start of a new year is the per­fect time to take a...Read More

The tra­di­tion of New Year’s res­o­lu­tions dates back thou­sands of years, and while many aspects have changed, the core phi­los­o­phy of self-improve­ment has remained the same. Most goals and res­o­lu­tions for 2020 quick­ly turned to sim­ply mak­ing it through, but we are look­ing to 2021 with cau­tious opti­mism and hope. Each year Bell­mont Part­ners sets agency...Read More
