Goal

The ongoing goal of many non-profit is to provide education awareness on their area of focus and provide a reason to donate to support the research initiatives. When tasked with the responsibility of developing a digital marketing campaign most non profits want awareness and donation growth with existing and new donor registrations. Omni-marketing channels including direct mail and other media placements, typically leverage true stories of care givers and patients and their desire to overcome an illness. Focussing on the human face on the cause, and demonstrate the real impact of how Canadians are giving to support the finding of a cure.

Challenge

Non profits deal with sensitive topics and require awareness to grow the educational perspective of their cause. From personal beliefs, to just a simple lack of knowledge on the subject matter, these challenges have led to static giving to a cause. Non profits hope to address these issues, and break down the stigma surrounding a disease through storytelling. Real patient stories create an emotional reaction and support from donors. The marketing initiative can give donors a chance to win a dinner for two, flights and hotel room for two nights to meet a top researcher.

Strategy

By using digital marketing together with print and direct mail and creating an omni-channel initiative would further the goal of the organization. Driving online engagement from all channels in order to increase the number of overall donors. A plan to tap into audience members throughout various stages of “awareness” of the cause, and create an omni-channel campaign that would cater to each of them and permit them to donate from any platform. Channels would be used to target different segments of the Canadian donor base to support giving. Campaigns can target individuals who were only slightly familiar with cause but not engaged with it, to advocates who regularly participate within the organization. Creating a sharing contest for engagement with a prize to meet a researcher can increase donations by 10% or more over a the 6-12 month campaign period. The AIIM Social campaign platform can used to measure the results from impressions through to donations. Some tools will help determine the impact of influencers who shared on social media to organically amplify results. Creative omni channel campaigns using tagging and our proprietary software can transform and take the pain out of analytics.
