“Social media is a great way to present consumer-friendly health topics endorsed by local physicians,” said Tonya Lucchetti-Hudson, Director of Marketing and Public Relations at Sherman Health. “Our Healthy Heart campaign used interactive social media tools to educate patients on the importance of heart disease prevention and screenings. I feel it was extremely effective, and we are taking this same approach with other diseases.”
Goal
In recognition of Heart Month, Sherman Health came to us wanting one measurable outcome when the month was done: more Healthy Heart CT Scan signups in February 2013 than they had in February 2012.
Challenges
The first challenge: Educate the public on what the Healthy Heart CT does and why it’s beneficial. After a morning of shooting at one of Sherman’s Immediate Care locations, that challenge was met with a new video.
With the educational portion done, the ongoing challenge throughout February was keeping the audience dialed in to what, let’s face it, isn’t the most entertaining of outcomes. To keep the Healthy Heart CT scan interesting, we focused more on overall heart health.
