Securing High-Profile Local Coverage: aKrewe on Great Day Louisiana

Great Day Louisiana Press Interview | New Orleans, 2025

The Goal

When aKrewe planned to close out year three of successfully connecting New Orleans' entrepreneurs, we knew we needed a big media win. Our goal was simple: get the city talking, drive ticket sales, and celebrate aKrewe's status as one of the region's leading business connectors.

The Challenge: A Crowded Market

The local media landscape is competitive, and we had to create a captivating feature story for the final networking event (held December 4th at the New Orleans Jazz Museum). We knew this was a great opportunity to generate high-value exposure for aKrewe's incredible event partners: the New Orleans Jazz Museum, Rise Psychotherapy and Family Support Services, Crescent City Chiropractic Center, and Bayou St. Nick.

Our Strategy and Results

We targeted an Emmy-award-winning local morning show to maximize awareness and ROI.

  • Successfully positioned Founder & CEO, Kristen Dufauchard, as the go-to expert on local entrepreneurship and intentional networking.

  • Provided targeted message refinement to ensure the CEO's core message about facilitating genuine business connections.

  • Delivered with aKrewe's mission and community-focused initiative with confidence, inspiring viewers to take action.

  • Secured the interview slot on WWL-TV's Great Day Louisiana with host Malik Mingo, strategically framing the event as the highly anticipated conclusion of a successful three-year-long event series.
