Abraham Harrison: Case Study – Unity Productions Foundation Challenge:

Generate widespread coverage and views of a new video by Unity Production Foundation called “My Fellow American” a campaign promoting the core American values of racial and religious tolerance in post 9/11 America.

The team at Unity Production Foundation (UPF) wanted to garner views for their new video short “My Fellow American” in the months proceeding the 10 year anniversary of September 11th.

In addition to video views, UPF wanted to encourage Americans to share their personal stories about positive experiences with their Muslim-American neighbors and re-encourage a mindset of tolerance and peace that has considerably suffered in our country since September 11th.

Abraham Harrison’s challenge was two-fold: drive viewers to the My Fellow American video, and increase traffic to the My Fellow American website.

Abraham Harrison: Case Study – Unity Productions Foundation Strategy/Tactics:

Tap thousands of impassioned bloggers to reach millions of readers and dominate the search results with the end goal of increasing awareness, encouraging sharing, and generating video views.

The team at Abraham Harrison implemented a comprehensive, multi-staged and highly targeted blogger outreach campaign to encourage bloggers to share UPF’s video with their readers.

As each of these bloggers expressed interest, the team at AH responded to them individually, encouraging them to post and providing them with any additional information they found necessary.
