They needed a partner who could handle everything—on-site coverage, quick-turn edits, and strategic integration into their website and future campaigns.
Our Approach
2A Marketing deployed a four-person multimedia team to Fort Worth for the full week of the convention (Tuesday morning – Friday afternoon). Each member played to their strengths:
- Chris Hagan – President of Sales & On-Camera Host
With a radio background and natural presence, Chris interviewed SAIA members and leadership, pulling out authentic stories and insights. - Alex Rausch – Account Manager & Digital Strategist
Coordinated the content flow, ensuring video and social aligned with SAIA’s broader marketing strategy and future ad campaigns. - Jill Frogge – Videographer & Account Manager
Captured stunning B-roll of sessions, networking, and the Fort Worth setting. Jill led the on-site editing, turning around polished recaps within hours. - Jon Dunn – Co-Founder & Website Director
Oversaw video direction, managed the technical workflow, and ensured deliverables were optimized for SAIA’s website and future digital use.
Execution
On-Site Coverage:
- Multiple cameras rolling daily across keynote sessions, workshops, networking events, and expo floor.

Rapid Social Media Recaps:

- Posted on SAIA’s social media channels each evening to maintain buzz and engagement throughout the convention.
Long-Term Content Development:
- Hours of high-quality B-roll archived for future campaigns.
- A planned auto-play background video for SAIA’s website.
- A teaser trailer for Nashville 2025 that will serve as the event’s primary promotional asset.
Results:
- Daily Engagement Spike: SAIA’s social channels saw higher-than-average impressions and shares with the daily recap posts.
- Positive Member Feedback : Attendees loved seeing themselves highlighted in recaps, which drove social sharing.
