Marketing & Communications
The Office of Marketing & Communications acts as a superhighway that connects the City of Miami Beach with residents, community groups, our many visitors and the media. The office takes the pulse of city stakeholders to fulfill our role as internal marketing agency and the communications engine for all city departments.
Marketing & Communications has a toolkit that includes press releases, social media across multiple platforms, email newsletters tailored to curated audiences, print publications, television, direct mail, text alerts, personal interactions with community groups, crisis communications and out-of-home advertising to include billboards, bus shelters and trolley wraps. We produce thousands of creative content pieces each year. The office is not tasked with promoting tourism and hospitality, since those initiatives are contracted to the Greater Miami Convention & Visitors Bureau, but nevertheless plays an important role in disseminating information regarding events that have a strong tourism component.
