CASE STUDY
the Jane Goodall Institute of Canada
Challenge
Strategy & Content Creation for two Canadian tours with Dr. Jane Goodall – Janeβs appearances are critical for fundraising and awareness. It’s important that JGI Canada be thoughtful about using social media to spread her message, and generate high levels of engagement during her time in Canada
Solution
The Founders Media team focused on IG stories, lives, and Reels (short-form video content) highlighting behind the scene moments with the JGI Canada team with a dash of humour, key events across Canada (Toronto, Montreal, Halifax), and the pure magic of Dr. Jane Goodall, including but not limited to:
+ Creating energizing, funny, inspiring, and highly shareable educational content
Examples
+ High quality photography
+ βStreetersβ – interviewing people before and after the events, and capturing the feeling & hype
+ Highlighting BTS with Jane, snippets of her on stage, and stand-out quotes
+ Creating avenues for cross-promotion, growth, and recyclable content for future uses (posts, reels, newsletters, campaigns) with sponsors such as Air Canada and Bullfrog Energy.
Results
Β βBrittanyβs work on these tours led to massive increases in our followership, and levels ofΒ engagement we had never seen before. She managed to strike a delicate balance betweenΒ playfulness and substance, making people care about the issues while also entertaining andΒ delighting them. Strategies that Brittany taught us are used by our communications team nowΒ every day. Her impact is long-lasting, and every single moment of working with her is a majorΒ Joy.β
