Strategy
________________________________________________________________________________________

As we move forward with our partnership, I believe our best strategy will be communicating with the public
through radio advertisements and social media. These will be the most valuable methods, given that radio and
social media reaches a large audience and are the most cost effective.

Radio advertisements create positive results. The large audience helps reach most age group in a quick period of
time. The cost for a radio announcement is minimal, allowing us to remain in budget while reaching our goal.

Advertisements will run every morning Monday through Friday following rush hour, and also in the afternoon
right before rush hour. The timeslots will be between 7:30am-9:00am and 2:30pm-4:00pm. This is a prime time
DoSomething to have a radio advertisement. The advertisement will do a great job targeting teenagers. This
timeslot will air during the morning and afternoon school rides, because most 12-18 year olds students will be
arriving and leaving school near these times.

The New York radio stations in which we will distribute the DoSomething advertisements are iHeart Radio FM
104.9 and WNOW-FM 92.3. The reason for these two radio stations is because they target the audience of 12-
22 year olds. iHeart Radio FM 104.9 is Indie radio with over 5,000 listens, and WNOW-FM 92.3 categories
itself as Adult Contemporary, Pop, and Top 40 reaching over 4,600 listeners. Young listeners are more prone to
turn their car radio to these stations, rather than stations such as news, jazz, talk show, or classical music.

The radio advertisement will last for 20 seconds and will introduce DoSomething. CEO Nancy Lublin will be
the voice of company during the commercial. The commercial will be as follows:

Hi! This is Nancy Lublin from DoSomething, a non-profit organization. We want you and your friends to help
us make the world suck less! Through nationwide campaigns you and your school can get involved.
Participating is easy and fun! Visit our website dosomething.org to check out our current campaigns and see
how you can help! Be use to follow us on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram to stay in the loop.

The social media contest will consist of participants submitting an entry; individually or as a group. After
entering the contest the individual or group must participate in three or more current campaigns. During these
campaigns the participant(s) should add photos involving each of the campaigns to their social media accounts.
After completing the required campaign participation the individual or group must submit two essays. The first
essay is very short and simple; the only requirement is that the participant(s) describe their involvement with the
current campaigns. The second essay is a in depth explanation of the desired campaign. The essay should
include as many details of the plan and wanted outcome.

Target
________________________________________________________________________________________


As stated in the DoSomething website your target audience is teenagers. The goal of DoSomething is to get
teenagers more involved in their community through volunteering and engagement in national campaigns. We
want this audience to maneuver through the social media outlets as well.

Younger individuals are more accustom to social media. This audience is more likely to interact via Facebook,
Twitter, Instagram, or YouTube. Advertising DoSomething through a radio announcement will initially increase
the traffic to the website and the social media outlets. After viewing the outlets out of curiosity the targeted
audience will begin to follow the appropriate accounts. This will allow the contest to gain more attention. The
contest will allow one individual or group to create their own campaign on DoSomethings behalf.

The Plan
________________________________________________________________________________________

Situation
DoSomething, founded in 1993, has grown to have a large social media following. However being a nonprofit
there is always room for improvement. The organization needs to give your volunteers and followers an
incentive to interact with you and join your campaigns. To do this, you need to be more interactive on social
media and live campaigns.

You are currently one of the nations most successful nonprofit organizations. Using online surveys for current
members, volunteers, and followers you will be able to gain more feedback about their experience with and
knowledge of DoSomething to better expand the organization.

Objective
Increase national knowledge of organization
- Through commercials, radio announcements, and media placement
Develop a stronger social media interaction
- Establish interaction through contests on social media websites
Create additional campaigns throughout the year
- Increase by 25%

Audience
The two target audiences for DoSomething will be high school students, as well as, college and university
students. The first group will be New York individuals between the ages of 13 and 25, the second will be the
same description just a national focus.

Strategy
My strategy will be to conduct several online contests in which participants will apply for the chance to create
their own campaign, supporting the cause of their choice. These contests will take place via Facebook,
YouTube, Instagram, and Twitter. There will be a planned contest for every quarter of the year.

Additional to social media interaction I will develop an advertisement for multiple media outlets. These media
outlets include, but are not limited to; radio, television commercials, community events, billboards, and
television and movie placements.

Calendar
Carnival: Labor Day Weekend
Social Media Contest: November 1, 2014 through December 31, 2014
Buttons & Bumper Stickers: Beginning of fall & spring semester
Radio Advertisement: Two Weeks Quarterly
Newspaper/Online Advertisement: Advertisements will be assigned the first month of every semester

Budget
Based on my expectations I estimate to spend $500 on a radio advertisement in the area. Also, we estimate to
spend $500 on printing materials. For the promotional events I estimate to spend $2000 per event, totaling
$8000. Social media is inexpensive, so there will be minimum cost. The reward campaigns are expected to cost
between $250 and $500 each. Including staff compensation the total costs are estimated to be around $30,000.

Evaluation
Realistically I hope to increase your social media interaction and organizations total members by 20% within a
years time. In addition to a pre-campaign survey a post-campaign survey will be necessary to discover where
your organization stands.
