Los Angeles, CA - The Los Angeles County Economic Development Corporation (LAEDC) and the World Trade Center Los Angeles-Long Beach (WTCA LA-LB) have chosen MAYO Communications as its agency of record for 2009-2010.
The nonprofit organization first hired MAYO during the 10-day lockout of the LA/LB Longshoreman's dispute, for an economic impact media campaign, which earned MAYO Communications the prestigious "Best Media Placement” PRism Award from Public Relations Society of America (PRSA). The lockout cost the country $5 billion. Later an LAEDC Wal-Mart Study (on the economic impact of 40 superstores coming to California) and media campaign earned MAYO “Best Education Campaign, PRSA,” a study on the economic impact of 40 superstores coming to California.
"MAYO brings a world of experience and difference in managing our media," said Jack Kyser, founding economist for the LAEDC’s Kyser Center for Economic Research. Kyser is the voice of the LA County economy and he authors and contributes to studies on a variety of topics from Hollywood runaway TV/film production and manufacturing studies to fashion trends, and the impacts of the technology and aerospace industries.
