Strategy
The campaign strategy devised by New Target was multifaceted and targeted. We designed a series of interconnected campaigns that addressed various aspects of NIB’s goals – from raising awareness about their mission to promoting specific SKILCRAFT products. Each campaign was strategically scheduled to coincide with key dates and events, such as National Disability Employment Awareness Month and NIB’s 85th anniversary, to maximize impact and relevance. Our strategy employed a mix of digital and traditional media platforms, ensuring broad and effective outreach. We emphasized storytelling in our content, creating narratives that highlighted the successes and contributions of individuals with disabilities, thereby humanizing and strengthening the NIB brand.
