Campaign
Public Relations Campaigns is a capstone class for Auburn University
public relations students. Campaigns challenged us to take the knowledge
we gained from all of our previous public relations courses and apply
it into making a campaign for a real clients PR situation. We were asked
to create an experiential marketing campaign for our clients; Fox Sports,
Auburn Athletics and Verizon. Our clients asked us to create a campaign
with the goal of letting the Auburn public know that Verizon is a sponsor
of Auburn Athletics.
My group and I constructed a complex
campaign to bring brand awareness to Verizon on Auburn University’s
campus. Our idea was to create a Verizon RV that would be used for
tailgating during football, basketball and baseball games. The RV would be a
place for families and alumni to meet up and reconnect. At this tailgate we
would ask alumni to share with us on camera what their favorite Auburn
memory was and whom it was with. We would then have Verizon pick the top
three memories and play them during the game, asking the audience to vote
for whose memory should win. Whoever gets the most votes would
get the chance to have themselves and the person from their memory flown
to Auburn during a game for a VIP experience.
Our comprehensive
campaign consisted of five parts: executive summary, concept, execution,
evaluation and conclusion. My group and I then presented our campaign
idea to all of our clients. To view the full campaign, click below.
