Task: In an Advertising course, I was given the objective to complete any advertising aspect that supports increasing Disney's target audience's health and wellness without focusing on revenue, sales, or partnerships.
Method: I chose to develop a media strategy and present the information in an executive summary for the objective. I began my strategy development by conducting in-depth secondary research on Disney's past CSR campaigns/ efforts, the target audience, and beneficial healthy habits. I focused on the audience's needs, values, behavioral trends, general demographics, media habits, and reasoning behind why certain CSR campaigns succeeded or failed in the past. Using this research, I then prioritized developing methods that would successfully connect with the audience and support the campaign goal.
Result: Based on my research insights into the audience's values and behavioral habits, I was able to create a media strategy that unified the client's goals and audience. The strategy, in summary, was to release a cooking show that promotes healthy eating using popular Disney characters and special episodes to be streamed through Disney+ for children and parents to enjoy together. This was supported by parents valuing spending quality time as a family, children's most-watched platform being Disney+, and parents needing time and entertainment for their children while preparing meals.
Task: In a Research & Consumers course, I was asked to choose a brand of interest to complete primary & secondary audience research, research analysis, and a S.W.O.T. analysis for an overall strategy outline to improve any aspect of the chosen brand.
Method: I first began by completing secondary research on the audience and company. I used this information to create in-depth interview questions and used peers within the target audience to complete interviews. After audience research, I completed the S.W.O.T. analysis using secondary research methods and personal experience. I then took all research insights for analysis and application to the company to identify opportunities and threats I could use for my strategy. From this, I identified that Free People's social media engagement was low, but with a strong brand identity. I found that many people from the target audience were not loyal to the brand due to high prices without justification. And I identified competitor threats capitalizing on the quality of products with lower prices.
Result: From my analysis, I identified furthering brand loyalty, increasing sales, and increasing consumer motivation as my main strategy goals. For these goals, I developed a creative strategy emphasizing social media engagement and campaign concepts that highlighted product quality.
