"Since 1903, the Dallas Museum of Art has provided a home for some of the world's most important and impressive works of art in their global collection, and now the public has access to them for free. The most fitting donation we could make to support this amazing institution is by providing our services and expertise to help raise further awareness for it," said Sam Bloom, GM Interactive at Camelot Communications. "Partnering with Kenshoo, whose technology we rely on for advanced audience targeting capabilities, was a natural fit as they're a like-minded philanthropic company."
In January 2013, the Dallas Museum of Art returned to free general admission and launched DMA Friends, the first free U.S. museum membership program in the nation, which currently has more than 64,000 members. Camelot Communications will focus campaign efforts on powerful social channels including Facebook and Twitter to increase attention for specific exhibitions in advance of weekend planning activities.
Camelot will utilize Kenshoo Social, an advanced platform to automate the creation, management and optimization of highly-targeted social marketing campaigns in real time, to quickly and easily create and target campaign elements around the special exhibits. Kenshoo's sophisticated tools allow Camelot to target local Dallas-area residents by demographics and interest, ensuring ads target the most relevant consumers to increase the likelihood of interaction.
"Those familiar with Kenshoo know that art and innovation are core components of what we do every day," said Ted Krantz, chief revenue officer for Kenshoo. "Putting our industry-leading technology in the hands of the experts at Camelot, it is quite rewarding to see the impressive results we were able to generate on behalf of Dallas Museum of Art."
"We are incredibly grateful for the opportunity to partner with Camelot and Kenshoo, two companies with strategies that closely align with the goals of our institution. We thank them for generously donating their time, services, expertise and technology to help raise awareness of the DMA's many exciting exhibitions and programs," said Rob Stein, Deputy Director of the Dallas Museum of Art. "When we returned to our free general admission policy and launched DMA Friends, it was with the intent of increasing access to all that we have to offer the North Texas community and Camelot and Kenshoo's efforts have played a vital role in helping us to accomplish this."
