Executive Summary 1

After constructing and reviewing our SWOT Analysis for the Fit Kids – Fitness Plus, Saint Francis Medical Center, Legacy PR has developed potential ideas to achieve customer expansion with a budget neutral foundation. With the reconstruction and re-branding for Fit Kids, we have created a Facebook, designed a billboard, new logo, flyer and t-shirt that will boost the opportunity for name recognition of the program. As August brings about a new school year, the Fit Kids program will distribute flyers, press releases, and post a billboard to inform and educate children and their parents about the Fit Kids program. Following these concepts, school visits will be implemented to educate and provide a firsthand experience of the Fit Kids program. We realize there is an already existing income from the Schnucks eScrip program to Saint Francis Foundation. However, we recommend that a separate account be created so it can directly fund scholarships for the Fit Kids program. As you will see in our eScrip potential budget, funding for the scholarship program can potentially increase the number of children by 19. This is a 217% enrollment increase in the program. Enclosed in this pitch book are countless opportunities to achieve a larger customer base. We look forward to working with you to accomplish great things for Fit Kids – Fitness Plus, Saint Francis Medical Center.

OVERALL OBJECTIVES

Page 6: Fit Kids Proposal - MC434 Senior Capstone Project

Recommendations

Promotional Logo: Developing a logo will become the new image that will be used to brand and jumpstart the Fit Kids program. T-shirt: Encouraging children that participate in the program to wear the t-shirt will be a way of promoting the program and can be used as an incentive.

Fundraising eScrip: Increase the number of scholarships and also focus on the service to the community from Saint Francis.

Online Facebook: People interested in the Fit Kids program can easily stay informed. Social media is a growing medium in both the targeted age group and their parents. Web Advertising: Since people are spending more time online taking advantage of web ads that are already in place would be beneficial in promoting Fit Kids.

Traditional Media We suggest using the traditional media that Saint Francis already established and incorporating Fit Kids into the market. Not only do we want to inform people about Fit Kids, we also want to educate children and families about ways to be healthy and how Fit Kids can do that.

Events Family Night: Encourage parents and children that are already members at

Fitness Plus to take part in family night. This night will serve as a preview of what children can learn in the eight-week session.

School Visits: Assembly to inform kids of the benefits of a healthy lifestyle. By showing them how to correctly exercise and proper nutrition more children could become interested in what Fit Kids has to offer.

It is no secret that poor nutrition and inactivity are putting today’s youth at risk of developing life-threatening disease as they age. According to the American Obesity Association, approximately 30.3% of children ages 6 to 12

are overweight and 15.3% are obese. The prevalence of obesity has quadrupled over the past 25 years. Obesity rates for young people have tripled since 1980 and doubled in the last decade alone.

This program, modeled after the ACE Operation Fit Kids program, will focus on physical activity and nutritional information for children ages 6 to 12.

Fit Kids will meet in the Multipurpose Room on Mondays and Wednesdays from 5:30-6:30 pm. The program, facilitated by a certified fitness specialist, will include: Pre- and Post-assessment for physical activity Basic nutrition assessment Age-appropriate fitness exercises and activities Attendance and participation rewards Mileage club Information on proper nutrition Graduation ceremony to celebrate accomplishments

evaluation plan 17

In order to evaluate the success of our campaign, we will begin by assessing the marketing strategy for the Fit Kids Program of Saint Francis Medical Center. From our research, we calculated the target audience (children ages 6 to 12 in the Cape Girardeau and Jackson school districts) to be 4,532 children. Mentioned in the “statement of objectives” page, our marketing and primary objective is to increase enrollment of the Fit Kids program 1% by spring 2014.

The first way we can evaluate this campaign is by the correlation between school visits and what schools the children in the program attend. In addition, school visits will incorporate a preview of the program to the children to increase interests.

The second way we will measure the success of your social media impact is through the number of likes, comments and shares on your Facebook page.

The third evaluation will be through increase of name recognition after the distribution of flyers, quarterly newsletters and press releases, as well as billboard and Facebook. This can be implemented through identifying where the parent heard about the Fit Kids program (i.e. Billboard, website, Facebook, school visits, etc.).

The fourth way we will evaluate this campaign is by the correlation between the “family night” events and how many children join the program after attending the event. In research, we found that there are 2,321 total memberships with 968 being family memberships.

The fifth way is to measure the success of our scholarship funding by the efforts of the eScrip program. It is in direct correlation to the continuous shopping at Schnucks Supermarket by the community, employees and supporters of the Fit Kids program.
