S.D. Professionals Forms Exclusive Partnership With Award-Winning Film Distributor Abramorama

S.D. Professionals brings innovation and expertise to independent film marketing efforts.

S.D. Professionals, LLC has formed an exclusive partnership with Abramorama, a leading global distribution partner for documentary and niche independent films. Abramorama's brand of event cinema and screenings, using both theaters and alternative venues, has made them an industry leader. As a trusted partner known for developing innovative marketing strategies, SD Pros will provide our expertise to maximize reach, engagement and viewership for Abramorama’s films.

This new partnership developed following the tremendous successes of “Goodnight With Dolly” and “The Library That Dolly Built,” two projects that teamed Abramorama with SD Pros in 2020. “Goodnight With Dolly,” a ten-week web series, garnered over 13 million views and went on to win four Telly Awards, while over one million viewers tuned in to the worldwide virtual premiere of “The Library That Dolly Built,” a documentary giving an in-depth look at Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library.

Providing films with the viewership they deserve.

As Abramorama’s exclusive partner, SD Pros will focus its efforts on audience engineering and marketing strategy, as well as the creation and/or optimization of film websites. Working closely with the Abraorama, SD Pros will create and execute marketing strategies to raise awareness among key affinity audiences, generating buzz around each film’s release while promoting attendance to premieres and screenings, whether traditional or virtual theatrical and global online premieres. We will also provide web support for existing film sites, whether created in WordPress, Squarespace or custom-built or create an entirely new website tailored to the unique needs of each film. S.D. Professionals President Jacob Timmons shared,

“In this new world we all find ourselves living in, the opportunity to put amazing films in front of millions of people who connect to those films is in our hands. We just have to make it happen, and that’s the most exciting part of this journey!”

From designing promotional assets to strategizing social media content, there are so many facets that go into a marketing campaign for any film, and virtual film premieres have even more factors to consider. Starting from the trailer premiere, we increase viewership, followers and engagement through targeted digital ads. Leading up to each film’s premiere, we drive box office and/or virtual release sales through geo-targeted ads for each theatrical market. Additionally, we create and monitor Facebook premiere events. And, through custom-designed subscriber journeys, we build subscriber lists and promote each film with a targeted, effective subscriber campaign. For each film that Abramorama acquires, SD Pros offers all of these services and more.

SD Pros is proud to provide our expertise to Abramorama in this new partnership, developing innovative marketing solutions that deliver impressive results.
