CAMPAIGN THINKING

How to Plan a Connected Campaign

A practical starting point for connecting print, outdoor and digital without losing the message.

Start with one goal

Decide what the campaign should help people understand or do. A clear goal makes it easier to choose a message, prioritize channels and agree what to measure.

Give every channel a role

Print can explain, outdoor can build recognition, social can add context and paid advertising can direct interested people to a focused page. Choose channels around your audience rather than including every format by default.

Keep the core idea recognizable

Use a consistent identity and message while adapting the amount of information to each touchpoint. A billboard should not carry the same detail as a brochure.

Plan approval and measurement

Agree the scope, costs, review process and launch steps before production. Define measurements that suit the campaign and the tracking that can be verified.
