The Denver Athletic Club

In partnership with Jamieson Mae Communications

JamiesonMae Communications is a premier marketing firm founded and operated by women with extensive experience in the private club sector. They were in need of an in-house social media manager for The Denver Athletic Club.

The Denver Athletic Club is one of the oldest and largest private city clubs in the United States. Dating back to 1884, it’s a historical landmark located in the heart of downtown Denver. Membership offers something for everyone: fitness, childcare, networking, social events and a stunning coworking space.

A black lamppost with white globe lights and a small portion of the sidewalk are also in the scene.

the problem

The Denver Athletic Club has a long history and extremely passionate, active members but their online platforms were not highlighting what makes them special.
Their tagline is “a club for your whole life” but their content lacked variety and professional photography to properly showcase their member experience.

We developed a strategy centered on brand building, highlighting the member experience, and showcasing state-of-the-art facilities. A key focus of their messaging highlights their rich history in Downtown Denver and the extensive amenities that make it a club for life. At the same time, we’ve elevated their professional presence through high-quality photography and videography, ensuring a polished and compelling brand image.
