The Client
The Michigan Education Association — Enough is Enough! Facebook page was launched as part of their Strategic Collective Action Plan.
The Opportunity
To build a communication vehicle advocating for adequate, secure funding for public education. The goal was to engage a diverse audience including members, parents and the community, around the legislative attacks on public education and school employees.
The Solution
Created a branded Facebook page which was promoted using targeted Facebook advertising campaigns to reach beyond membership. It was promoted on the MEA Website, MEAOnline Facebook page, Twitter and in MEA e-newsletters and other Enough is Enough! collateral. Videos were produced using Enough is Enough! rally footage and later used to promote Mayor Virg Bernero as candidate for Governor.
