“Forward Theater has been a great investment for us. All advertising creates name recognition and awareness but being perceived as providing support to an organization that is very popular with our target demographic creates a halo effect that makes this a very effective form of outreach. In addition, our client appreciation events featuring Forward Theater productions have been more successful than we had hoped. The notes and comments we get tell us how much the clients appreciate and remember this gesture and sharing the experience with them creates a bond that goes far beyond what we could achieve though conventional client gifts costing far more.”
