AARP Services — seven years of creator infrastructure.

For over seven years, CURE has served as a member of the PR Agency-of-Record team for AARP Services (ASI). Our work engages adults 50+ and amplifies the lifestyle, healthcare, finance, and travel benefits AARP members access through the brand's national partnerships.

We don't just run influencer placements. We build the creator infrastructure: persona and theme strategy, creator selection by audience and ROI, contract negotiation, content production oversight, performance reporting, and the long-term creator relationships that make every subsequent campaign more efficient than the last.

We average 16.3 impressions earned for every $1 spent, significantly outperforming standard influencer marketing, which averages approximately 7–8 impressions per $1.

Shenandoah Valley Tourism Partnership.

CURE served as agency of record for the Shenandoah Valley Tourism Partnership for several years, running both paid digital and influencer programs. We partnered with three content creators to showcase the full breadth of the Valley — each focused on a different sub-region and set of destinations chosen to match their interests.

The creator program was one prong of a larger digital advertising strategy and a multi-year client relationship.

At this level of reach, most campaigns would expect a few hundred comments. Generating more than 900 indicates audience interaction that significantly outperforms standard benchmarks — content that didn't just reach audiences, it sparked meaningful engagement.
