Positioning an Energy Giant as the Ecofriendly Leader
Xcel needed to raise awareness of its extensive environmental commitment among key stakeholders.
Insight
Although Xcel had a legacy of environmental commitment, their efforts were under-reported in the media. To get ahead of a proposed clean-power plan from the EPA, Xcel called on Padilla to create and implement a media relations and communications plan.
Idea
We assisted Xcel with announcing its corporate responsibility report – a report that didn’t just meet the EPA’s proposal but exceeded it.
Impact
In less than three weeks following the announcement, message-rich stories appeared in targeted regional and national print and broadcast media outlets.
