Brown Mackie College - Indianapolis Selects Synergy Marketing Group as Agency of Record

Local Public Relations Firm Tapped for New Market Launch Due to Success with The Art Institute of Indianapolis

Indianapolis, IN, October 12, 2007 --(PR.com)-- Brown Mackie College – Indianapolis, owned by Pittsburgh-based Education Management LLC (EDMC), recently selected Synergy Marketing Group, Inc. as its agency of record. This is the second Education Management school launch Synergy has supported. The agency is responsible for leading Brown Mackie’s public relations efforts to introduce the school, its leadership and its educational programs to the Indianapolis region.

Synergy was selected as Brown Mackie College – Indianapolis’ agency of record because of its success in launching The Art Institute of Indianapolis in 2005, also owned by Education Management. Synergy has continued providing public relations and marketing services to The Art Institute of Indianapolis since its opening.

“Synergy is a proven performer,” stated Jacquelyn Muller, vice president of public relations for EDMC. “We’ve been impressed with the agency since it helped us launch The Art Institute of Indianapolis. That new school opening was such an important success, in large part due to Synergy’s strategic planning, community relationships, publicity accomplishments and tireless efforts. When we were planning the Brown Mackie College launch in Indianapolis, we immediately called upon Synergy to join the team. The agency has set a very high standard for our new school launches nationwide and we’re excited to see how Synergy tops its own successes.”

As Brown Mackie College – Indianapolis’ agency, Synergy’s role includes public relations, community relations and government relations. Synergy is also helping Brown Mackie’s executive team build relationships with local business leaders in the health care, legal, technology and criminal justice sectors. In addition, Synergy is planning and managing the school’s grand opening which is slated for early 2008. The VIP event will be held at the school’s new 25,000 square-foot, downtown campus which is currently under construction.

“We have a long history and great rapport with Education Management’s corporate executives and The Art Institute of Indianapolis leadership team,” commented Amy Zucker, president and founder of Synergy. “We understand Education Management’s vision and standards for introducing new schools into the marketplace, and we have a solid blueprint for helping Brown Mackie College establish itself as contributing corporate citizen. We plan to apply the same proven processes and leverage the community relationships that made The Art Institute of Indianapolis’ launch a success to quickly position Brown Mackie College as a well-known and well-respected pillar of the Indianapolis community.”
