Women Run the Cities / MNCREW

Surging ahead in a crowded race for participants.

Background

With a desire to increase race registration, MNCrew engaged Activated Growth to assist with marketing and PR. The goal was to spark new interest in the female-only race and halt a recent decline in participation.

Challenge

Increase event participation in a very competitive, niche race industry.

Solution

Activated Growth performed an analysis on past participants to better understand them and how returned to race in the following years. With that insight, we developed marketing and PR recommendations and helped manage the successful implementation in coordination with the WRTC marketing team.
