Our Work
We don’t sell products, we enhance missions, and we know communities are stronger when our clients are successful. We’ve been in your shoes, and we believe the personalized experience we provide sets us apart. No project is too small, no idea is too bright, and no purpose or problem is too big. We would love the opportunity to meet you and start working together.
Our team collaborates with a curated list of strategic partners to create a comprehensive suite of high-quality websites, videos, and digital/print materials. With their support, Powers Solutions is a full-service communications and public relations firm.
Employee culture was a significant area of opportunity when our work started. After conducting multiple surveys and feedback sessions, we helped create an educator advisory group that guides the Superintendent and the leadership team and ensures teachers and staff understand important decisions and processes clearly. This work led to a compensation assessment and redesign that resulted in a collaborative model for teachers and the district to develop a competitive system rivaling the top districts in the region. As a result, all MMSD teachers and staff received salary increases, and the group was given the autonomy to make decisions regarding future hires, benefits contributions, maternity/paternity leave, and more.
Education
Case Study: Millington Municipal Schools
Millington Municipal Schools is a public school district in Tennessee that serves approximately 2,600 students from Pre-K to grade 12. Our team has worked closely with the district's leadership to establish its first strategic communication plan, improve perception among key stakeholders, and strengthen relationships with the Board of Education. In general, our team supports the daily communication operations of the district by serving as thought partners and advisors, sourcing and drafting content for various channels, such as newsletters, social media, and presentations for the Superintendent and leadership team, providing crisis communication assistance, and marketing the district through video production, advertising, and community engagement.

Nonprofit
Case Study: Memphis Symphony Orchestra
The Memphis Symphony Orchestra is a professional orchestra that employs over 80 musicians and arts professionals in the Mid-South region. They offer a variety of subscription concerts, such as Masterworks, Classic Accents, and Pops, as well as multiple special concerts throughout the year. Powers Solutions conducted a communications audit, interviewing key stakeholders and evaluating their communications platforms, methods, and materials. As a result, we helped launch the We Play for Memphis campaign to showcase the beautiful connection to the community through music and the dedicated musicians who contribute to the city in multiple ways. We also managed the website design process in collaboration with our strategic partner, Vandyink. The redesigned website is more accessible and user-friendly for their followers, making highlighting their concerts and musicians easier. Additionally, we supported the team in their day-to-day communications operations and promotional activities for the season.

Community
Case Study: More For Memphis
More For Memphis is a collaboration of over 300 partners who have come together to enhance social and economic progress in Memphis and Shelby County. Individuals from the community, non-profit organizations, businesses, and public entities work collaboratively to identify the problems and sustainable solutions that will turn a shared vision for a flourishing community into a reality. Our team is responsible for managing all the internal and external channels, such as the website, social media accounts, and internal/external newsletters. Given the magnitude of this endeavor, it was crucial to create various digital and print materials and key messages that all participants could easily access to explain the initiative to the broader community. Our team has established a close working relationship with the project management team and partners by sourcing and drafting content, supporting the execution of events/meetings, and participating in critical conversations as thought partners and advisors.
