Each campaign reflects a strategic approach to storytelling that connects with audiences and drives results.
REQ partnered with Day of AI to transform a mission around AI literacy into a national conversation. In just 30 days, our team launched a coordinated podcast campaign reaching educators, school leaders, and parents, supported by ongoing top-tier coverage and thought leadership placements in leading education publications. These efforts drove visibility and momentum ahead of the America’s Youth AI Festival at MIT while positioning AI education as urgent and accessible.
For CivicPlus, REQ executed a multi-channel thought leadership program focused on key verticals including web accessibility and resident engagement. Through a 12-part blog series, podcast outreach, research promotion, and customer storytelling, the campaign elevated CivicPlus’ voice while showcasing real-world impact across communities.
Alongside the Wolters Kluwer ELM Solutions team, REQ led a data-driven thought leadership campaign that translated complex legal insights into compelling, industry-relevant narratives. By tailoring content to key audiences and amplifying it through strategic channels, the campaign strengthened brand authority and drove engagement across the legal technology space.
A Win for Our Clients and Teams
The Communicator Awards receive entries from agencies and organizations around the globe, making this recognition especially meaningful. These wins reflect the strength of REQ’s client partnerships and the expertise of the teams behind each campaign, building on momentum seen across the company’s latest news and updates.
Congratulations to our teams and clients on this well-deserved achievement.
