Marketing & PR Campaigns:

Over the past nine years, Ananda Leeke’s passion for blogging and work as a blogger and social media influencer have deepened her understanding of how important bloggers and social media can be to the advertising, marketing, and public relations  efforts of companies and organizations. As a result, Leeke became a blogger ambassador for Macy’s Heart of Haiti campaign in 2010, and currently serves in this position. In 2011, she became the first Heart of Haiti blogger ambassador to travel to Haiti to meet Haitian artisans.

That same year, she tapped into her power as a social media influencer and served as a conference ambassador for the Blogalicious Weekend Conference.  In 2012, she used her social media influence to participate in the online book party for author Marney K. Makridakis’ new book, Creating Time and to promote President Barack Obama’s Re-Election campaign. Her current partnership with the Everywhere and Everywhere Society allows her to blog about special events sponsored by Macy’s and other brands.

Through her Digital Sisterhood Network (DSN), she has partnered with SheWrites.com on the She Writers DC Meet Ups, CiviliNation on the Digital Civility & Securitiy Initiative, and United 4 Equality’s ERA 2015 Awareness Campaign. She has utilized her DSN social media influence and platform to promote her interests in blogger self-care and wellness, feminism, peer mentoring, and social media women leaders. In addition, she has worked with The Eiland Group, Everywhere, Shootie Girl, Susan G. Komen for the Cure, and Violet Boutique on Digital Sisterhood Month event sponsorship, and established media partnerships that support the Blogalicious Weekend Conference and DigitalunDivided.com’s #FOCUS100 Pitch Bootcamp and Symposium. Her current DSN partnership with AARP’s Kitchen Cabinet Blogger #CareSupport Campaign allows her to support women caregivers.
