We decided to begin the campaign with the production of a short film. This film also began the social media awareness of all involved. Including interviews with the founders and gymnasts as well as teachers, and all involved.
Having created this solid base of information through a professional short film we began contacting our contacts. Initially within the local media including TV, Radio, and press. To begin the starting blocks. A campaign can take time and the constant drip-feeding of information to the media gradually builds awareness and hopefully press. In this case, we achieved some major coverage in a very quickly for such a short campaign.
Having successfully covered the local media outlets we also expanded the campaign. To move into national media features. After discussing the Gym’s situation with our contacts. We managed to organise a national full page feature in the Daily Mail. As well as Interest from national TV resulted from the campaign.
