Your Story Made Here Launch

POST BY MATT KELLEY

On Monday, October 1st, the Your Story Made Here campaign launched. YSMH is a continuation of the Northeast Indiana Regional Partnership‘s Made Here communications campaign, a comprehensive strategy to deliver on the Partnership’s mission to develop, attract and retain talent.

Most people are familiar with the develop side of that mission, conveyed through the Talent Made Here campaign (yes, the one with Curtis). Your Story Made Here delivers on the attract & retain portion of the mission.

With a robust website, shareable, link-laden website and a baker’s dozen web videos, YSMH puts the spotlight on quality of life assets all across the region, from rock climbs to rock bands, from bull rides to block parties. These events and happenings are presented through interviews with real people, on-location. There are no scripts—just passionate people talking about the things that enrich their lives in Northeast Indiana.

We worked with our good friends at Red Tide Productions on video production. Their work is stunning, and their sense of adventure is just right. And this is rather important: Matt would like to note that they were fun to hang out with all summer.

So we hope you’ll check out the site, read every word, and watch every video. We hope you’ll share it with your friends and your family, and we hope you’ll use it when you talk to people about the great opportunities that are all around us.

This was a real gig, but it was also a true labor of love, and we all feel lucky to have been the Partnership’s partner in telling these stories.
