Awareness campaign

PRIORITY ONE


Awareness is the primary focus of this 60-day campaign. Because branch-level promotions currently run independently with no shared calendar, group-wide pushes rarely build the momentum a single, coordinated campaign could achieve; this strategy phases brand-building, class education, and community storytelling on one timeline so every studio reinforces the same narrative at the same time, rather than competing for local attention in isolation.

Problem: Branches promote independently with no shared calendar, so chain-wide campaigns lose momentum and messaging stays inconsistent across studios.

Solution: A single 60-day content calendar, phased across brand awareness, class education, and community stories, that each branch localises with its own studio details while keeping the core message and cadence identical.

Objective: Build unified network-wide visibility and consistent cross-branch messaging that establishes a repeatable, scalable framework for future chain-wide campaigns.

———

Audience: Prospective members researching yoga and wellness studios in their city, existing members who are lapsed or infrequent attendees, and local community members unfamiliar with the chain’s full class and workshop offer.

Tactic: Sequence three content phases over 60 days — brand story and values (Days 1–20), class and workshop education (Days 21–40), and member and instructor community stories (Days 41–60) — distributed centrally and localised per branch using the guideline’s consistent naming, tone, and page-structure rules.

Budget: Minimum SG$9,500 covering 20 social media posts (text and graphic design), 4 blog posts (500 words each), 3 copy or design pieces (two production hours each), 3 photography sessions (one production hour each), and 1 email (three sections), distributed across the 60-day campaign to sustain a steady, localisable content stream for all branches.

———

Inquiry insight: Branch marketers report no shared content calendar exists, so promotional pushes are timed independently and often overlap or conflict, while central marketing lacks visibility into what each branch publishes until after it goes live, delaying corrections; branches have also expressed a preference for more centrally produced, ready-to-localise assets rather than creating campaign content from scratch each time.

Audit insight: Tone and terminology vary noticeably across branch social accounts, with some using “workout” and “clients” instead of the guideline’s preferred “practice” and “members,” while pricing and promotional details are inconsistently updated across branch pages, with some studios showing outdated fee information; visual style also differs by branch, with inconsistent fonts, colour use, and image quality against the chain’s approved brand components.

Research insight: Wellness audiences build trust incrementally, responding first to brand credibility content, then educational content, before engaging with community proof points, and they tend to engage more with real instructor and member imagery than with generic or stock wellness photography; short, scannable content with 2–3 sentence paragraphs and simple CTAs also performs best for class and workshop promotion, aligning with the guideline’s reading-level standards.

Awareness campaign

PRIORITY ONE


Owned is the primary channel of the Awareness campaign. Owned assets give central marketing full control over tone, claims, and structure, which is essential given the guideline’s rule that only the central marketing lead can approve chain-wide campaign content. This makes owned platforms the backbone for rolling out brand story, class education, and community content on the shared 60-day calendar before branches localise it.

Platform: Chain website (studio and class pages), branch and central Instagram and Facebook accounts, and the member email list.

Distribution: 20 social posts, 4 blog posts on the wellness education blog, and 1 chain-wide email, each built centrally then localised per branch with studio-specific details, in line with the guideline’s page structure and naming standards.

Cadence: Social posts publish roughly 3–4 times per week across the 60 days; blog posts publish once every phase (Days 1–20, 21–40, 41–60, plus one closing piece); the email sends once mid-campaign around Day 30 to reinforce the class-education phase.

Shared is the secondary channel of the Awareness campaign. Member and instructor sharing extends reach organically and reinforces the community-driven brand voice defined in the guideline, since word-of-mouth from real practitioners carries more trust than branch-only messaging. This channel is especially valuable in the Days 41–60 community-story phase, when member testimonials and instructor features are ready to be reshared.

Platform: Branch Instagram Stories and Reels, member Facebook groups, and word-of-mouth referral prompts embedded in community-story content.

Distribution: Encourage resharing of 3–5 of the highest-performing owned posts (photography, copy, and design pieces) per phase, with branches adding local captions.

Cadence: Resharing prompts go out weekly, timed a few days after each owned post publishes to allow organic pickup.

Earned is the tertiary channel of the Awareness campaign. Earned coverage, such as local wellness roundups or instructor features in community media, adds third-party credibility to the brand-awareness message without requiring paid spend, though it depends on relationships branches build locally. Given the guideline’s truth-and-trust standard requiring any claim to be backed by real evidence, earned placements should be pitched using verified member satisfaction data rather than anecdotal claims.

Platform: Local lifestyle or community publications, and wellness-focused newsletters or blogs in each branch’s city.

Distribution: 1–2 pitched features per branch across the 60 days, built around instructor introductions or community stories.

Cadence: Pitching begins in the class-education phase (around Day 25) so any coverage lands during or after the community-story phase for maximum impact.

Paid channels are not prioritised in this phase given the $9,500 budget is allocated fully to content production rather than media spend, keeping the campaign focused on building a reusable owned-content foundation before layering paid amplification into future chain-wide pushes.
