But how exactly do you implement a marketing campaign successfully during a pandemic?
These are extraordinary times and every marketer is thinking on how to adapt their marketing strategies to the reality we’re living in today. Social distancing is rising online interaction and people are spending more time on social media and accessing web-based resources to stay productive and positive.
However, promoting a campaign is more than just releasing an article or posting a few tweets, especially at a time when every communication channel is dominated by a global phenomenon. It is a systematic, repeatable process which engages its audience continuously throughout the duration of the campaign. Affluence PR employs an integrated marketing approach in order to reach out to its targeted audience successfully and generate the target leads before the closing of submissions:
1) Public Relations – press releases for awareness in key publications relevant to the 2021 Zayed Sustainability Prize.
2) Influencer Marketing – tap influencers in the sustainability field to provide reviews to the 2021 Zayed Sustainability Prize.
3) Partnership Marketing – tap key leaders and partners in the sustainability business and financial communities for the Zayed Sustainability Prize within the identified key audiences/markets, and relevant educational institutions for student participation within the identified markets.
4) Email Marketing – Outreach to previous entrants in Asian countries to sustain their involvement to the 2021 Zayed Sustainability Prize. Outreach to new candidates to submit applications before the closing date.
In addition to the integrated strategies, Affluence PR has identified the core metrics and milestones for the campaign in order to track progress versus targets and ensure the achievement of goals. For example, the target submissions for the seven (7) countries is 100, Affluence PR’s target outreach is 30 per country. Milestones give everyone a better sense of what to check if performance isn’t lining up with expectations.
