The solution

 

To increase ShareFile’s backlink profile, and drive brand awareness in the US, we created a PR campaign which evaluated and highlighted which cities in America were the best for women to achieve business success. The campaign was based on the following data:

  • % of women-owned businesses
  • % of executive jobs held by women
  • Women’s wages as % of men’s
  • Women’s buying power rank.

The results

 

Links from top sites such as:

  • Bizjournals (DA93), Inc. (DA92), Mayland.gov (DA91), Miami Herald (DA91), SmallBizTrends (DA83), Virgin.com (DA82), SmallBizDaily (DA58).
