Ontario Women Anglers (OWA) is a non-profit organization dedicated to promoting the sport of fishing among women and families in the community.
There is a concern among OWA members that the sport of fishing may be losing appeal among younger audiences, as they are not showing the same level of interest as previous generations.
To tackle the challenge at hand, Mosaic Agency has developed a comprehensive integrated marketing communications (IMC) campaign titled "Hooking the Next Generation: A Social Media and Website Strategy for OWA's Long-Term Success". Our strategy aims to drive engagement among younger women, boost OWA membership subscriptions, and reduce membership attrition.
Our proposed solution entails incorporating a learning component into our social media strategy, providing the target audience with valuable knowledge on various topics such as new technologies, equipment, culinary tips for fish preparation and preservation, and relevant hashtags. Our social media efforts will primarily focus on Instagram, with a well-structured 2-month content calendar and customized templates exclusively designed for OWA.
Furthermore, our website strategy includes enhancing the website's layout, with the addition of a Volunteer and Community section that will enable OWA to build a database of volunteers and members, catering to both young and mature audiences. The website will also be optimized for mobile viewing and implemented with Search Engine Optimization (SEO) techniques across all pages.
In summary, our IMC Campaign will provide compelling educational content and elevate OWA's digital presence, effectively attracting and retaining the next generation of fishermen and women, thereby ensuring their long-term success in the fishing industry.
To ensure the long-term success of OWA, conducting a SWOT analysis is crucial. This analysis enables us to identify both internal and external factors that may impact OWA's ability to achieve its goals. By leveraging the insights gained from the SWOT analysis, we can develop targeted strategies and tactics to effectively capitalize on OWA's strengths, mitigate weaknesses, leverage opportunities, and overcome potential obstacles. This proactive approach will enable us to maximize OWA's potential and ensure its sustained success.
OWA's member base spans across different age groups, with a majority falling between 35-65 years old. The organization offers a mix of free and paid activities, with an annual membership fee of $30.
OWA attracts 130-150 members annually, with 25-30% being new members, and has a 70% renewal rate. Our IMC plan targets younger women (20-45 years old) and mature women (45+ years old) who share a love for fishing. Thorough understanding of their characteristics and behaviours will guide our marketing strategy to effectively engage with them.
"Hooking The Next Generation"
This creative theme is centred around empowering women to take up fishing as a means of gaining confidence, connecting with like-minded individuals, and acquiring new skills in a supportive community. Through this big idea, we aim to inspire women to explore the world of fishing and its associated benefits.
