Case Study: Travel Costa Mesa levels up PR efficiency and media monitoring with Muck Rack

Travel Costa Mesa saves days of PR time with Muck Rack

Travel Costa Mesa, a destination marketing organization for Costa Mesa, California, faced the challenge of promoting its city despite being overshadowed by larger neighboring tourist destinations. As a one-person PR department, their manager spent an excessive amount of time manually searching for current journalist contact information, which was inefficient and hindered their outreach efforts. The organization needed a better way to manage its public relations to compete effectively.

The solution was implementing Muck Rack's PR platform. Using its comprehensive and always up-to-date media database, the team could easily find and pitch relevant journalists, saving days of previously wasted research time. Muck Rack's media monitoring tools also allowed them to track global coverage of a viral story and accurately measure PR impact. This enabled the small team to operate competitively, prove the value of their work with robust reports, and significantly increase their efficiency.
