SITUATION:
The Woodruff Arts Center in Atlanta initiated a $110M Transformation Campaign, constructing a new $32M state-of-the-art theater. Facing nearly a million dollars in sales tax on building materials, the non-profit sought legislation for a tax exemption. Situated in Midtown Atlanta, garnering support from legislators in rural Georgia posed challenges due to the perception of benefiting the “big city.”
ANALYSIS:
In a strategic move, The Woodruff Arts Center enlisted Alexander Babbage for a data-backed analysis to fuel their legislative push. Utilizing TruTrade, Babbage compellingly demonstrated that residents from over 90% of Georgia’s counties had visited The Woodruff within the last 12 months. The findings were presented through impactful visual aids, maps, and data, reinforcing the strength of their case.
RESULTS:
Georgia Legislature, recognizing the positive impact on constituents, passed House Bill 265, exempting the Woodruff Arts Center from sales tax on Alliance Theatre renovations, vital for budget adherence.
