We’re Marketing to the Public for You! What can the INLA do for you? |
Promote your products and services through consumer marketing! The INLA continues to increase awareness of the value of using nursery products through the Plant Something campaign, driving consumers to plantingidaho.org which in turn directs them to their local retail nursery. In the spring of 2015 there were two radio spots and two different television ads that had statewide coverage. The radio ads carried the message of Don’t Just Stand There- Plant Something. The television ads had two messages. One of the messages was "Imagine a World without Trees and Other Plants," and the second was "Plant a Tree for Arbor Day". Plant Something’s goal is to encourage Idaho-appropriate landscapes and educate the public about their benefits:
The Plant Something campaign was chosen to be a part of the Idaho State Broadcasters Associations NCSA program for the spring of 2015. Under this program the ISBA distributes their material and in return the agency receives advertising time donated by the Idaho Broadcasters. The Idaho State Broadcaster Association distributed the Plant Something television and radio announcements beginning in April 2015 and ran them through July 2015. The radio spots were heard 3,813 times and received advertising time worth $65,783.00. The television spots were seen 853 times and received advertising time worth $21,662.50. The line item in this grant for advertising was $15,000. The total return on investment for this period of time was $87,445.50. |
