We Know City Government Marketing

Kelley & Associates developed the design of promotional materials to commemorate the City of Bartlett’s 150 Year Anniversary. This included a logo, mug, street pole flag banner, City Hall outdoor banner, popup banner stand, stickers, rack card and social media graphics. 

The City of Bartlett’s brand refresh included a new tagline, brand guidelines, updated icons, wordmarks, banners, signs, stickers, buttons, window clings, vehicle magnets and a tradeshow display backdrop. This campaign encourages all Bartlett residents to be proud of their hometown.

Kelley & Associates provided a new brand for the City of Bartlett’s Parks and Recreation Department. 

The City of Bartlett publishes an Information & Activities Guide twice a year to highlight the City’s programs, activities, special events and more. Kelley & Associates has worked on the design and development of these issues since 2012.

 
 
I have worked directly with Christi Kelley and her team on numerous projects for the City of Bartlett, and their work has been an integral part of our efforts to showcase Bartlett’s business attractions and residential amenities. Kelley & Associates developed our logo, which perfectly embodies our community’s small-town spirit and thriving economic growth. The K&A team continuously pursues ways to stay at the forefront of innovation, and their staff is well versed at integrating dynamic print design with new media technology including web applications and social media. Christi and her team continue to exceed my expectations, and I recommend them with enthusiasm.
— Debbie Gelineau, Director of Community Relations, City of Bartlett, TN
 
 

Kelley & Associates implemented a marketing campaign to teach Germantown, Tennessee residents to recycle the right way. The campaign included magnets, banners, brochures, postcards, print ads, social media graphics and a PowerPoint presentation — as well as an animated video.

We also hired recycling inspectors to lead a 10-week curbside education program to help residents recycle responsibly. Known as “feet on the street,” they inspected carts left out for pickup, leaving behind either a “Superstar” tag or an “Oops” to remind residents what belongs inside.

Providing copywriting and design services, Kelley & Associates produced the City of Germantown’s Residents’ Guide to Trash, Recycling & Yard Waste Brochure.

Kelley & Associates crafted Bartlett Insights, an ongoing magazine that seamlessly blends local news coverage with insightful business features.
