2.0 Target Audience Analysis

Campaign Focus:
Volunteering

Why we chose our target audience:


Many schools are encouraging their students to do volunteer work to give back
to the society. They need to earn points (eg. CIP, Life Skills) in order to
graduate. It will be a good idea to partner up with schools to encourage more
youths to participate in giving back to the society.

As for families, parents nowadays tend to focus more on teaching moral values
to their kids instead of using violence. Therefore, it will be a good idea for their
family bonding, and parents can use this opportunity to teach their children
values of giving back and be grateful.

Working Adults Families

Demographics - 25 - 50 years old - Female and male


- Female and male - Parents and
- Low - High income children, some
- Holds a part time or with elderly
full time job - Middle - High
income
- Majority holds a
full time job

Psychographics - Need time to rest - Parents want to


during the teach moral values
weekends to their children
- Wants to volunteer - Want to give back
but they are way to the society
too busy - Routine and
- Probably only free packed schedules
on weekends - Probably only free
on weekends

stories about them, increases
credibility
- Multiple partnerships

Opportunities: Threats:
- They are an intermediary - A lot of organisations doing
unlike most organisations volunteer work as well (Might

such as Instagram to appeal to - A lot of scamming cases
audience

volunteer and donate

Significant Findings:

According to National Volunteer and Philanthropy Centre (NVPC), volunteer


rates jumped from 18 per cent in 2014 to 35 per cent in 2016 based on the
survey showed.

singapore-almost-doubles-from-2014-to-2016-surve-8762174

- Proves our point that there are more people in Singapore willing to do
volunteering work.
- We can use our focus (volunteering) as our target audience.

Website link:
http://www.asiaone.com/singapore/singaporeans-open-wallets-and-their-
hearts-charity

- The idea of people are lacking of compassion as they don’t do charity is


declined, because studies showed that the number of people who are
willing to do charity is increasing every year.
- It is easier for us to get people to donate to charity as long as we are a
credible organisation, and we do not eliminate the donating money as
one of our strategy.

Website link:
http://www.straitstimes.com/singapore/spore-ranks-28th-in-world-giving-
index
- Proves that volunteering in Singapore is quite frequent as we are ranked
quite high among the other countries.
- Back our reason for selecting our focus.

“Volunteers” out there claiming they are from well-known organisations and
earn money

Website link:
http://www.straitstimes.com/singapore/fund-raising-scams-creating-
confusion

- When we are looking for volunteers to carry out the events that we are
going to do, we must make sure that they have something to verify
themselves as part of the organisation.

Two youths sentenced to probation, community service for charity scam


http://www.todayonline.com/singapore/two-youths-sentenced-probation-
community-service-charity-scam

- With more cases of scam, people are becoming more skeptical about
charities. Hence, we have to take this into consideration as we craft our
campaign so that it proves to be credible to the public to achieve our
goals and objectives.
- This information will help in our branding of our campaign/company.

Key Messages

M333 Communication Strategies for Event Management

There are many ways to help others. You can volunteer your time to do
something meaningful to let them feel your love.

Inspiration: The feet is the furthest away from the heart. Knit a sock, to keep it
warm.

Campaign Idea: Knitting Socks

In partnership with Joy of Knitting, we will be hosting an event during the


weekends for the public to come together to learn how to knit socks. The
event is completely free for all.

We will ask Joy of Knitting to get some volunteers from their side to come
down to Knit Your Love event to teach the participants how to knit socks.

After the event, the knitted socks will be sold for money to be used as
donations. Any leftovers knitted socks that are not sold will be donated to
beneficiaries.

The reason for knitting a sock in particular, is because, the feet is the furthest
away from the heart, it get cold easily and it’s the coldest part of our body.
Therefore, by providing a pair of sock can warm their feet and indirectly warm
their hearts.

Families

Families can bring their kids down on weekends to participate in the knitting
event. Promotes bonding time and they can learn a new skill/teach kids
knitting. They can also include a note if they want with their completed stuff.

Working Adults

If the working adults are available on the day of the event, they can come
down to the event to knit together.

M333 Communication Strategies for Event Management

However, for working adults who don’t have the time to participate in the
event can go to ROH’s website to purchase a ball of yarn for $5 on our website
and Joy of Knitting will knit on their behalf and donate to the needy under their
own name. They can also include a note if they want.

How to increase traffic:

For the knitting event, those who are interested in signing up for the event,
they will have to register themselves via ROH website. This will drive traffic to
ROH’s website because interested participants have to visit ROH’s website to
register.

For those who wants to help but do not have the time to come down for the
knitting event (mainly working adults), they can purchase a ball of yarn from
ROH’s website which will be knitted by Joy of Knitting, and donate to the
beneficiaries under the purchaser’s name.

It will drive traffic to ROH’s website because those who want to purchase the
ball of yarn, they will have do the transaction through ROH’s website.

Contingency Plan (If Joy of Knitting doesn’t want to sponsor the yarns)

The $5 yarn that is bought online by people, will be given to the participants
who are attending the event and from there, they will knit for the
beneficiaries.

5.0 Communication Strategy: IMC

Tools that we are using


- Digital advertising
- Interactive marketing
- Publicity

Interactive Marketing

Putting up our E-posters on our own platforms, Facebook and ROH’s website,
(Promoting $5 per ball of yarn to help beneficiaries & Knitting Event) to inform
our followers that we have a knitting event coming up, and people who are

M333 Communication Strategies for Event Management

interested in volunteering can sign up at our website. QR code is included in


the poster for easy access to our website.

Our rationale behind choosing this tool is because it is free and there are
various features and tools to choose from as well.

Digital Advertising

Marketplace Ads

In order to promote our event, we will be targeting at Working Adults, using


the e-poster as the main picture and we will have a headline and a short body
copy to explaining what is the knitting event about. Lastly, we will have a call-
to-action button at the bottom to prompt them to buy a yarn, so that Joy of
Knitting can help to knit. When they click on the button “Donate now”, it will
lead them to the ROH’s website.

The rationale for using Marketplace Ads is because the ad is able to link it to a
website that is on or off Facebook. Therefore, they don’t have to go through
the trouble of clicking through ROH’s Facebook to go to the website or to
search it themselves.

Post Page Ads

We will boost our post on our Facebook account so that other people who are
not following our page would be able to see our posters. The sponsored post
will be shown either at the top or the middle of their feed.

Display Ads

In order to reach out to our target audience specifically, display advertisement


would help us by showing our posters based on people’s preference by the
stuff that they normally go to.

Publicity

We will be printing out posters of our event and the purchase of a ball of yarn
for our selected partners, NTUC Health, KK Hospital, HCSA Dayspring,

M333 Communication Strategies for Event Management

Healthserve. Afterwhich, we can ask our selected partners to put up our e-


posters on their website and social media platforms to promote our knitting
event.

The rationale for using publicity is to leverage on our partners’ audience

8.0 Sponsorships

In order to provide refreshments for our participants, we are intending to ask


for a sponsorship with Milo and Yeos for drinks. On the other hand, for food
we will be asking Old Chang Kee to sponsor some finger foods for our event.

These sponsorship partners are Singapore companies hence, there is a high


possibility of them willing to accept our request for a sponsorship especially
since ROH is a non profit organization

In return of the sponsorship, we will put their business logo on our posters.
This way, we are increasing awareness for their company.

To hype up our programme for the event, we will be asking students from the
Photography Club of St. Hildas Secondary to do up a photo booth. As well as
for the manpower for the event, we will be opening up to the entire school to
register with us to help us out for the event.

In return, we will be giving them CIP points if they attend the event for the
entire day.
