Guilford County Case Study Digital Tactics Image5

The Guilford County Division of Public Health has the mission to protect, promote, and enhance the health and well-being of all people and the environment in Guilford County, NC to promote the vision of “Healthy people living in a healthy community.” In the years following the COVID-19 pandemic, they needed to keep parents and students aware of the importance of the vaccine to prioritize safety in and out of school.

THE CHALLENGE

Following the COVID-19 pandemic, the Guilford County Division of Public Health needed to ensure that families knew the importance of getting students vaccinated to support public health across the community.

The Guilford County team learned about Stratagon’s history of working with local businesses and non-profits, so they engaged with us to build the strategy and implementation of a 3-month campaign that would reach the right audiences. Their focus was specifically on students in schools where exposure was more common as they returned to school, and they wanted to influence parents across the county.

STRATEGIC ACTIONS

Driving Specific Engagement through a Multi-Channel Approach

Because the audience had varying levels of web accessibility, we developed a strategy that would cast a wide net while still using specific targeting based on the channel. Channels included billboards in prominent local areas, flyers in school folders, video ads (CTV and Hulu), digital display ads (Meta and Programmatic), and organic social content to drive the message home. Tactics including geotargeting, relatable imagery, and approachable wording drew in audiences to take action. The “Keep Kids Healthy In and Out of School” messaging in English and Spanish helped bring clarity to parents, and the ads provided simple ways to schedule a free vaccine appointment.
