Our Work
We conducted a health check to determine the Diocese’s past performance, the competitive landscape, and the broader social media conversation about vocations, priesthood, and Catholicism.
Using our findings, our team developed and executed a social media campaign to build and engage an owned audience of New York millennials, as well as influencers of this demographic, in order to increase awareness of vocations and drive traffic to campaign portals.
After researching related conversations and shared content, we found there was huge traction with the words “hero” and “heroism” and that articles focused on positive, human stories of individual heroic actions. Because of these findings, our team formulated an influencer program that would focus on “behind the scenes” videos, quotes, and images in the theme of everyday heroism.
