Preston Argus Portfolio
How has Preston Argus helped other organizations?
Strategic and Operational Planning
A science museum believed that the more revenue could be earned from facility rentals. After analyzing feedback, we determined that potential renters were concerned about the potential "icky" artifacts that could spoil their guests' experience. Preston Argus created a video to showcase how the section of the museum used for facility rentals lacked "ickiness."
A cemetery was fundraising to restore art murals in its columbarium. The fundraising committee realized the need for a public marketing campaign to supplement the private fundraising efforts. Preston Argus identified potential media sources who would be interested in the story, wrote and disseminated press releases, and designed a campaign brochure.
A federally funded research center wanted to create an electronic document management system that equaled or surpassed systems used by its peers. Preston Argus conducted a benchmarking survey of those peers and developed three archives models and an evaluation process to help the research center select the model best suited to its customers.
Examples of our MuseOps analytical models are also available - no registration is required.
