Executive SummaryOur organization has been around since 1967 when the citizens of Beaumont wanted to save the older buildings rather than demolish them. In 1990, the society saved the David French House, which was built in 1850, and is now being used for offices. The most recent project was the Chambers House which reopened for tours May 2007.
Our campaign of #MAKINGHISTORYFUN will be able to:
● Spread awareness of The Beaumont Heritage Society● Spread awareness to citizens of the Golden Triangle● Provide relevant information to citizens on historical attributes of Beaumont● Target everyone, no one group will be left out
Our team was able to do on site research, library research, media research and a budget analysis. Creating a SWOT analysis gave us an insight into our areas of focus for the campaign. From our research we created a Marketing Objective and Advertising Creative to promote our campaign of #makinghistoryfun. We created four big promotional events to coordinate with the four seasons in order to expand our community outreach. We created a budget of $7,000 to implement our Media Plan and Strategy. In conclusion we created a Measurement and Evaluation plan to make sure our campaign is successful in creating more awareness, providing relevant information and reaching the citizens of the Golden Triangle.
The “Big” Idea #makinghistoryfun
Throughout all our events we will have ads before, during, and after with the hashtag #makinghistoryfun. We are encouraging all participants of the events to use this hashtag in pictures and post to help increase awareness and help our media team keep track of how our following is improving.
ResearchOn Site:
● We viewed and toured the Chambers House where they host several events that The Beaumont Heritage Society hosts.
Library:
● We explored the history of The Heritage Society and their current clientele. Create a mail out survey for all of our previous and current members to help better determine campaign strategies.
Media:
● We researched the current social media, events, and website to be able to determine how to better target our audience.
Budget:
● We did a budget analysis to find that funding comes from Hotel Taxes, Membership fees, donations, The Chambers Trust and Event Fees.
