How Nielsen McAllister helped

The Background

Tower Cold Chain provides passive temperature-controlled containers to the pharmaceutical and life science industries. With an increased demand for pharmaceutical logistics thanks to the international COVID vaccination rollout, Tower approached Nielsen McAllister to support its accelerated growth, and raise awareness of the company in the pharmaceutical, logistics and airline sectors.

The Solution

Press Releases

Working with both our existing contacts and broadening our media relationships further, we leveraged Tower’s press exposure in regional, business and trade publications.

A new HQ opening, product launches, award wins and facility expansions to name a few of the press releases we wrote and issued.

Other support included securing many magazine articles, delivering topical and engaging thought-leadership copy on pharmaceutical logistics.

 

Social Media

We started a regular content stream on Tower’s LinkedIn and Twitter channels, delivering graphic design, engaging copy and hashtag analysis.

In addition, we designed and delivered multiple sponsored campaigns, targeting carefully researched audience to build awareness, drive website traffic, and generate leads.

We also produced a Google Display Network ads campaign, targeting specific locations and demographics with CPC marketing.

 

Awards

Other support includes producing stand-out copy for awards submissions, including Tower’s Queen’s Award entry for International Trade – which they won in May 2022!

This win led to Tower’s CEO, Niall Balfour, being interviewed on BBC Radio Berkshire.

 

Events

Nielsen McAllister also orchestrated Tower Cold Chain’s media and stakeholders’ event, to mark the official opening of the Tower UK Headquarters.

We successfully invited a group of journalists to attend the event, as well as securing the presence honorary VIP, COP26 President and Reading West MP, Alok Sharma.
