Catherine Campbell, founder
I am a brand and public relations expert with nearly 20 years serving as a strategic partner for exceptional brands in food, hospitality, arts & culture.
OFTB is my second agency. Prior to OFTB, I owned Campbell Public Relations, a boutique marketing and communications agency, for six years, which represented brands in food, beverage and retail including James Beard Award and IACP-nominated thought leaders and restaurants. I also served as head of marketing for nationally-beloved brands such as East Fork and WILDSAM.
One For The Books is not only my goal for each client, but a nod to my background, where I earned a graduate degree in creative writing while studying consumer psychology and marketing behavior. As a result, I build client campaigns using a strong storytelling framework that will draw customers in, help them understand the brand and care deeply about the remarkable people behind it. In a world that is racing to the bottom to get a cheap and fast click, I pause to ask, How can we fully build a brand world that will create lifelong loyal fans?
Work with OFTB
I run an intentionally small PR & brand storytelling studio based in Asheville, serving a national clientele.
