O'Reilly DePalma produces a launch event for Porcher Solutions at Grande Central Showroom in New York.
The Porcher brand had an opportunity to launch a smart new collection of smaller-sized luxury bathroom fixtures and furniture at the chic midtown Manhattan showroom of its channel partner, Grande Central Showrooms of New York.
Porcher worked with O’Reilly DePalma to invite architects, designers and media attendance to the Grande Central Showroom at 56th Street. In collaboration with Wendy Silverstein & Associates, O’Reilly DePalma managed the event planning, connecting the client to the right influencers in the New York design community.
Final attendance exceeded the expectations of the showroom and more than doubled the attendance success metric the client set as a goal.
Client quote: “The attendance was not only great in quantity, but even better in quality. They genuinely liked what they saw and had a good time.”
