We build brands.

We boost brands.

We bang the drum for brands.

What We Do

Media Relations/Crisis Comms

We put clients in front of the camera and above the fold to capture headlines and earned media coverage to position companies and messages. And, when that red phone rings and crisis is on the other line — we are ready to act and provide the strategic counsel.

Social Media + Influencers

We know the recipe to build social content and engaging strategies. Be it creative themes or influencer programs, we generate the content that connects.

Content Creation

We bring the writing skills to craft the content pieces that spark up blogs, drive internal communications, spice up marketing collateral and more.

Community Outreach

We help clients engage with the communities they serve by creating colorful PR community programs that demonstrate a brand’s goodwill — which results in positive earned media coverage and content apertures.

Video Production

We have the chops to do video work from the concept to the copy writing to completion — creating vibrant motion pieces that resonate across all screens.

Events + Activations

We have the expertise to plan, produce, execute and staff creative activations to bring together employees, partners and more to celebrate special happenings.

What We’ve Done

  • Cracking Open a New Brand.

    For Eggland’s Best premium brand Born Free Eggs, OSP created a brand engagement recipe by forging partnerships with local chefs who starred in elevated dinner experiences featuring delicious dishes. These events brought to the table influencers and foodie friends to taste, create and promote the brand in key markets. To add more flavor, OSP led a series of motion video shoots to cook up dozens of videos for digital distribution.

  • Tooling Up Students for Careers in the Trades.

    For Northern Tool + Equipment, OSP connected the company with career and technical education programs across the country to demonstrate its support for the skilled trades. Through a series of in-class events, OSP brought in media coverage to spotlight professional-grade tools donations. Capping it off, OSP celebrated the schools and students through customized video pieces to tell the stories.

  • Growing Downtown St. Paul for Good.

    For the Saint Paul Downtown Alliance, OSP established an inviting activation program to welcome people to the city through a robust blend of special events — almost 350 in one year — along with a collection of videos to introduce viewers to the faces and places of Saint Paul.

  • Creating the Craft Beer Boom

    OSP harnessed the power of earned media and craft beer lovers to ignite the “Surly Bill,” which overturned a near 80-year-old law — and gave breweries the right to serve their beer where they brew it. The new law resulted in the creation of hundreds of craft breweries and taprooms across the state.

  • Uniting for Soccer

    OSP launched the dynamic Minnesota United brand by bringing communities together for the brand announcement, which included mayors from both Minneapolis and Saint Paul, and celebrating the new team in company of the vibrant and diverse Midtown Global Market, the location for the press conference.

  • LL Flooring PROfiles

    For long-time client LL Flooring, OSP has created various initiatives to target and engage the ‘Pro’ consumer, a key and growing segment. This has included helping to facilitate podcast guest segments, producing videos of profiles and projects, and fostering partnerships with trade organizations and spotlighting them. Within this program, OSP has also done many content captures of Pros at work at various installations and builds to share a detailed story of the products and services at work.
