Obstacle
The Tysons Community Alliance (TCA) launched in 2023 to elevate Tysons, Virginia, and increase awareness of the area's growth, opportunities, and economic success. As a newly formed nonprofit, TCA needed a strategic communications plan to guide its communications program and build a strong foundation for its brand, messaging, marketing, and events.


Approach
After developing a strategic plan tailored to the needs of the organization, KGL led public relations and communications efforts. This included developing consistent messaging, securing media coverage, and coordinating closely with stakeholders, partners, and local businesses to amplify impact. Our team led integrated marketing campaigns to position Tysons as a vibrant, connected destination, combining digital strategies with traditional outreach to maximize reach and engagement. We designed and executed a robust events and activation program that helped define Tysons’ identity, including the launch of signature events such as the Mixed Market and Copa Tysons, driving foot traffic, supporting local businesses, and creating high-impact community experiences. KGL developed and launched an innovative economic development tool to support local businesses that enabled seamless, secure, and mobile-friendly transactions.
Results
Our strategies established a recognizable identity for the Tysons Community Alliance and increased awareness of the organization throughout the community. Website traffic, social media followers, and overall engagement grew consistently. Signature events continue to expand each year, attracting larger audiences and extending their reach. The community engagement program also grew to more than 200 members.
