SUCCESS STORY #8

Problem:
The University Hospital wanted to do a stroke awareness campaign, targeted to a 2 mile x 2 mile Newark geographic area, giving warning signs and the advice to call 911.

The Lewis Solution:
A strong, vibrant red and white stroke logo was developed. It was placed in every stroke item and media used during the campaign. A series of color newspaper ads were completed and run. Pharmacy bags, shopping cart cards, king bus panels and interior cards, taxi tops and bus shelters were produced and placed in the target area. A color 6 x 8 postcard, followed one month later by a second, refrigerator magnet mailing served as continuing reminder.

Results
At the end of the campaign, the Hospital's Director of Marketing and Media Relations said, "It did exactly what it was intended to do. It gave an excellent awareness of stroke signs while it positioned the University Hospital as the location best able to treat stroke victims. The diverse media with a strong, common message was the key to its success."
