new orleansFSC Interactive has landed consolidated social media duties for the New Orleans Convention and Visitors Bureau and New Orleans Tourism Marketing Corp., following a review.

The $300K account came after the two tourism entities decided to combine their social media efforts (and respective accounts) and held an RFP process through August and September for social media consulting and services to complement its PR and advertising efforts.

New Orleans-based FSC has worked with both organizations and beat out firms from across the country for the assignment targeting leisure and business travelers, as well as meeting planners.

NOTMC president and CEO Mark Romig said FSC pitched a plan that allows close collaboration between the two marketing organizations.

Deveney Communications (PR), Communify, 360i and Spears Consulting round out New Orleans' agency roster, which helps cultivate a $7B impact and support 33K hospitality jobs.
