Mango Media is on the move! The past few months have been a whirlwind of activity. We've been out and about, connecting with the community and attending key events. We can't wait to share some exciting updates!
Chamber Events
Our community's Chamber of Commerce is buzzing, and Mango Media PR is right in the thick of it! From ribbon cuttings to empowering women's leadership events, we've been there, soaking up the energy and celebrating local business wins.
Career Women's Luncheon
The recent Women's Career Luncheon was a force to be reckoned with! Surrounded by incredible, inspiring businesswomen in our community, we learned more about how to show up as our most authentic selves and truly thrive.
Not only did Mango Media walk away with an awesome door prize, but we also had the invaluable opportunity to connect with other local Women Leaders. This event was a true game-changer, and we can't wait to attend again next year!
Chamber Coffee at Citizens Bank
We finally got a chance to peek inside the brand new Citizens Bank at the Chamber Coffee event! It was more than just a cup of joe – it was an opportunity to meet the friendly staff and experience the beautiful new building firsthand.
Ribbon Cutting at AlyCo Boutique and Roo+Co
The cutest thing to hit Lawrenceburg Square is the brand new boutique we discovered at a recent Chamber event! Not only did we get a sneak peek at their adorable wares, but the the gathering also gave us a chance to reconnect with fellow members and friends. Talk about a win-win!
Chamber Coffee at A Kid's Place, Child Advocacy Center
The Chamber Coffee at A Kid's Place wasn't your average networking event. It was a heartwarming display of community support for a vital cause: protecting our most vulnerable. A Kid's Place provides a lifeline to abused children, offering them the resources and care they need to heal after trauma.
Seeing the community rally around this incredible organization was truly inspiring. A Kid's Place deserves all the support we can give. Head over to their Facebook page to learn how you can donate or get involved and be a hero for a child in need!
Summertown High school
We had an amazing double-dose of Summertown High School spirit recently!
First, we spent the morning talking to their Virtual Enterprise students about the realities of owning your own business and how to get started in the digital field. The fun didn't end there, that experience was followed by another first for us, having a shadow for the day! Halle joined us for the Kid's Place Chamber event, followed by several hours working at Co-Work Coffee, a yummy lunch at Pat's Cafe, and then an afternoon visiting clients.
Thank you for these opportunities to work with these students!
Client events and meetings
Coldwell Banker Southern Realty
Meetings, Lunches, and Award Ceremonies, Oh My!
Our partnership with Coldwell Banker Southern Realty has been a masterclass in collaboration. Together, we've crafted impactful videos, attended industry-shaping events, and held countless conversations that have driven real results. We're incredibly thankful for this journey of shared growth, month after month!
Lawrenceburg Technical College
Over the past few months, we've been on a whirlwind ride with Lawrenceburg Technical College! From electrifying events to show-stopping commercials, we've partnered with LTC to showcase their incredible new building as well as their awesome educators and students! Lawrenceburg is, and always will be, a stronger community because of this powerhouse of education. After all, there's nothing quite like the power of continued learning, and LTC embodies that spirit perfectly.
5090 South The Furniture Store
Forget your typical furniture store. 5090 South is an experience! We partnered with this Chattanooga treasure to create captivating content that reflects its unique vibe. With live music from an in-house venue, a putting green to test your golf skills, and a massive collection of furniture. Every corner bursts with character and history, making 5090 South an adventure in itself. Needless to say, working on this project was a privilege!
We talk more about our trip to Chattanooga in our February Blog post, linked below!
Supporting Local Businesses
Breakfast at Make It Sweet
Craving a breakfast that sparks pure joy? Look no further than Make It Sweet!
We've partnered with them to bring their delightful treats to countless work events, and let me tell you, they disappear faster than you can say "birthday macarons" (which, by the way, are the best in town!). But Make It Sweet isn't just about the sugary delights. They also boast the flakiest, most buttery croissants you'll ever have, perfectly paired with delicious coffee from Rockin' Coffee Co., a local roaster! Make It Sweet truly lives up to its name – it's a breakfast experience that will leave you singing!
Lunch at Society American Nosherie
A long time favorite, Society has always been a go-to lunch spot for the Mango Team. Whether we are refueling or need a space for meeting, Society always has us covered! They have an amazing plant-based burger and make sure you get your tator-tots with honey hot sauce! No trip downtown is complete without stopping by this gem.
Lunch at Deb-O's Pizza
Deb-o's Pizza recently impressed us with its commitment to customer satisfaction. While they initially lacked a dairy-free cheese option, the owners listened attentively to our request. Within three days, they had added this dairy-free alternative to their menu specifically to accommodate our dietary needs. This level of responsiveness and customization is truly commendable, and it ensures Deb-o's will remain at the top of our "lunch favorites" list!
A few of our other favorite lunch spots;
(Plant Based options available at all)
-Pat's Cafe is a long time favorite of ours, we've been going for years!
-1819, beautiful ambiance and tasty food, what more do you need?!
-Daydream Diner is a new favorite, with a beyond burger you can customize with countless yummy toppings!
-Oishi, when we're in the mood for Sushi we always visit this tiny place in the Kroger Plaza!
-El Azteca Mexican Restaurant, delicious, reliable, and fast!
On a Personal Note
Dauphin Island
Over Spring Break we took our kiddos to Dauphin Island to enjoy a little R&R. It was the perfect place for a quiet family vacation. We ate lots of yummy food and enjoyed the beautiful beaches, even if it was a bit too cold for most of us to get in the water.
Our downtime, usually reserved for cozy evenings at The Carriage Wine Bar in Florence, took a delightful seaside twist at their Dauphin Island location. We sipped on perfectly chilled glasses with an incredible sunset view! It was pure bliss, a family beach vacation seasoned with a touch of grown-up indulgence.
A few other island highlights from our family trip:
-The Bird Sanctuary is beautiful and offers walking trails to enjoy a morning hike. Beware of the Alligators!
-Lighthouse Bakery, yummy baked treats and good coffee!
-Pirate's Bar and Grill, we loved it so much we ate here twice!
-The USS Alabama in Mobile, historic fun for the entire family! Ocean breezes while to wander the enormous ship! We were there for over 2 hours and everyone in our family wanted to stay longer!
