Vaccinate PEI
Campaign
featured project
How do you get a population to get vaccinated?
VOLUME18 worked with the Chief Public Health Office to develop an emotional
campaign that encouraged and promoted getting COVID-19 vaccines. This campaign
had three stages that focused on encouraging people before vaccines were secured,
during when people were asked to get vaccinated and after to encourage anyone
hesitant to get vaccinated.
Our Approach
The first phase of the campaign centred around influential people stating that they
would get vaccinated when it was their turn. The “I’ll do it for” messaging featured
reasons for getting vaccinated when your time came. This initial stage included
social media ads, print ads and video production.
As more vaccines became available, we quickly moved to phase two which changed
the messaging from “I’ll do it for” to “I did it for” featuring Islanders from across our
province who had received their vaccine. This included health care workers,
long-term care workers, truck drivers, frontline workers, and seniors. This stage saw
the addition of bus shelter advertisements, digital screen advertisements, video
production, on-site signage and the design of a vaccine sticker that was handed out
at province-run vaccination clinics. As more groups recieved their vaccine, new
individuals were featured in the creative.
As we headed into the Summer, we transitioned to the third phase of the campaign
which changed the messaging to “Do it for”. This direction was aimed at speaking to
those target populations who were still hesitant to get vaccinated. Messaging in the
ads reminded Islanders of all the things COVID had made us give up including travel,
celebrations, sports, concerts, and family reunions. This phase saw the production of
third video centring around getting vaccinated so we could return to the things we
missed so much. Cultural leaders were also engaged and included in digital creative
that was provided to them to send out to their communities.
