The LCHS is currently trying to raise money to build an on-site spay and neuter
facility. This shelter will offer exclusive spay and neuter services to the animals at the
shelter before they leave with their new owners. Currently, the pets are being
transported to the Auburn University Veterinarian School for the spay and neuter
procedures. This process is dangerous, because the transportation causes stress on
the animals and allows the spread of diseases.
The construction of an on-site facility has many benefits. It will eliminate the
stress placed on the animals, because of transportation as well as cut down on the
amount of diseases spread. The staff working at the spay and neuter facility will be vet
school students from Auburn University. This will allow the students to get hands on
practice and training.
The LCHS needs to raise $200,000 to build the spay and neuter facility. They
have raised roughly $160,000 through various donation programs like ‘Hour of Pay.’
They have hit a plateau and need a new program to get the remaining $30,000.
The specific need that we will be addressing is formulating a campaign to spread
awareness throughout Lee County. The campaign will be targeting the community to
make them aware of the benefits a spay and neuter facility would bring to the area. The
campaign will also include new opportunities for the community to get involved through
donations and participation in various events. With the assistance of Stacee Strength,
LCHS director of public relations and development, we feel development and
implementation of our campaign will be a success.

When we approached the task of assigning objectives to our campaign, we came up
with five types of objectives that will help LCHS obtain its ultimate goal of raising
awareness for the need of a spay and neuter facility and encouraging people to donate
to the construction. The five types of objectives we cover are terminal, intermediate,
attitudinal, behavioral and informational.
These terms are defined below:
• Terminal: The ultimate goal of the campaign
• Intermediate: A smaller goal that needs to be achieved to fulfill the terminal goal
• Attitudinal: An objective that strives to influence its target public’s attitude on a
particular issue
• Behavioral: An objective that strives to steer its target public’s to perform a
certain behavior
• Informational: An objective that strives to give a target public information on a
certain issue
Our goals and objectives are stated as followed:
1. Terminal: To provide all animals within the Lee County Area with the
ability to be spay and neutered in a safe and sterile environment.
2. Intermediate: To raise $200,000 for the construction of a spay and neuter
facility through donations from the community.
3
!"#$%&#'(&)*+,-./0,%&
!
!"#$%&#'(&)*+,-./0,%&
3. Informational: To inform the Lee County community of the need of the
spay and neuter facility.
4. Attitudinal: To promote a positive feeling toward the spay and neuter
facility through the Lee County area.
5. Behavioral: To encourage people to donate money to the construction of
the spay and neuter facility.
There are two main points we feel that need to be addressed through our
campaign. First is, the people of Lee County need to understand the importance and
benefit the spay and neuter facility will have on their community and the over grown
animal population. We fulfill this need through the informational and attitudinal
objectives.
The second main point deals with the need for the people of Lee County to
understand that their help is needed to build this facility and without their monetary
support the LCHS would not have the funds to build the facility. We fulfill this need
through the behavioral objective.
The intermediate and terminal goals can only be reached if the attitudinal,
behavioral and information objectives are executed successfully first.

With the overall goal of this campaign in mind, we have been able to target a key
public. We believe that in order for this campaign to succeed, we must be specific in
public targeting. This is why our single key public can be broken down into two smaller
publics.
One of the primary goals of the campaign is to raise the necessary amount of
money in order to meet the $200,000 dollar goal set by the LCHS. In order to meet this
and other goals, we believe that the campaign should focus on existing pet owners and
animal lovers in the Lee County area. The idea is to focus on individuals who are more
likely to give than others. In this case, pet owners in the area are more likely to give
than residents without pets.
Targeting pet owners in Lee County would be too vague. In order for this
campaign to succeed, we need to better define whom we are trying to reach. For this
reason, we have broken down our primary public into two smaller categories.
The first can be described as an active public. An active public is one that is
already engaged with an organization. For the LCHS, this would include county
residents who are already aware of the need for the spay and neuter facility. It may
also include those who have given to the LCHS in the past, receive the Paw Prints
newsletter or have participated in past events. Our goal for this public is to create
retention from the past donors and event participants.
The second can be described as an aware public. An aware public is one that
may be aware of the need for a spay and neuter facility, but might not know how to help
5
!"#$%&'()*+$
!
!"#$%&'()*+$
or have chosen not to in the past. Our goal for this public is to gain involvement and
donations.
Our campaign’s communication tactics will be designed with these publics in
mind. We will utilize different mediums in order to reach the two. We believe that if we
have a clear understanding of our public, the communication tactics we use will be as
effective as possible. The tactics used will be outlined in the Communication Strategy
section of this campaign book. The tactics will be detailed along with their correlating
publics.

We decided through research that the Pet Pals Calendar would be the smartest
and most profitable source of income for LCHS. We benchmarked other humane
societies in Huntsville, Birmingham, Mobile and Montgomery to come to this conclusion.
We personally contacted these humane societies and asked them questions regarding
the success of their past calendars. Through this research, we discovered that past
calendar sales were extremely profitable for them. Sales for their calendars averaged a
profit of $30,000-$50,000 each year they attempted a calendar. The Internet was also a
powerful source when we were conducting research. We used it as a tool to gather
information and view other humane societies’ work.
We also met with Stacee Strength to view previous projects that the LCHS has
created to raise money for their organization. Through talking with Strength and the
research we did through other humane societies, we all agreed upon the calendar as
the most beneficial project for LCHS.
When creating a template for the calendar, we observed older LCHS calendars
and calendars from other humane societies like Birmingham and Montgomery. We
created a template that we felt best displayed the pets and dates accurately, as well as
the advertisements we will be allowing on each page.
We also evaluated other factors that go into creating a photo contest. We
gathered registration forms and rules from other humane societies to come up with our
8
!"#"$%&'()*"%*+",(
!
!"#"$%&'()*"%*+",(
set of rules. All of these elements helped us created a photo contest and calendar that
we feel will be successful for the LCHS.

We have come up with several recommendations for the execution of our
campaign plan. These recommendations include an article to go in the LCHS
newsletter, creating flyers for the contest, updating the client’s Web site, and creating a
press release, public service announcement and fact sheets about the kick-off event
and photo contest.
Objective 1, Strategy 1, Tactic 1- Pet Pals Calendar
After researching fundraising efforts of humane societies around the state of
Alabama and talking through ideas with LCHS PR director Stacee Strength, we came
up with our first tactic. Our objective is to help LCHS raise $200,000 for the
development of an on-site spay and neuter facility. Our tactic to fulfill this objective is to
set up a LCHS Pet Pals Photo contest and calendar.
The LCHS will be able to make money off of both events and they will work hand-
in-hand with one another. The photo contest will be set up where pet owners can
submit a photo, registration form and entry fee to enter their pet in the contest. Owners
can submit as many pets as they would like and can vote on their photo as many times
as they would like.
There are two levels of entry. The first is $10 which is to register one pet, and
covers entry fee costs only. The second is $20 which covers the entry fee of one pet
and also covers your first 15 votes. If pet owners would not like to take advantage of
,
15
!"#$%%"&'()*$&+,
!
!"#$%%"&'()*$&+,(&',-./0(&()*$&,$1,2(#)*#+,
this offer, they can still make individual votes for their pets. The individual votes are $1
per vote. Again, owners are allowed to vote as many times as they would like.
The pet receiving the most votes at the end of the contest will be featured on the
front of the 2010 Pet Pals Calendar. The next 12 pets receiving the most votes will be
the featured pets from January 2010 through December 2010.
The calendars will be out for sale in October of 2010. The price per calendar will
be left up to Stacee Strength and the fundraising committee at LCHS depending on how
much was raised from the photo contest.
Objective 1, Strategy 2, Tactic 1- Widget
In order to make the photo contest fun and easy-to-use, we recommend
embedding a widget into the LCHS’s current Web site. This widget will keep everything
about the photo contest at the viewer’s fingertips.
The home face of the widget will provide a countdown to the final day of voting
on the pet photos. There are three tabs on the side of the widget. There is an “About”
tab, which gives viewers a detailed summary of the photo contest and calendar. Next is
the “Contact” tab. This tab will contain contact information and the LCHS number they
can call with any questions about the contest. The third tab is the “Progress” tab. This
tab will show how much money has been raised and how much more is needed to
,
,
16
!"#$%%"&'()*$&+,
!
!"#$%%"&'()*$&+,(&',-./0(&()*$&,$1,2(#)*#+,
reach the necessary $200,000. There will also be a link on the widget to the Flash site
where they can view all photo submissions.
Objective 1, Strategy 2, Tactic 2- Flash site
Another way we recommend making the contest fun and easy-to-use is by
utilizing a Flash site for the viewing of the pet photos. Through this site, people can look
at all photos that have been submitted. This will be something exciting for pet owners to
view and share with friends which may spur them to get in on the excitement.
Objective 1, Strategy 2, Tactic 3- Online registration form
The registration form that will be available at the LCHS will also be available in
the form of a PDF file on the LCHS Web site. This registration form explains the photo
contest and what the money is going toward. It also has a cut-off section at the bottom
that participants can submit by mail or in person at the LCHS.
Making the form available online makes it easy to print, fill out and have ready
before they drop it off. This saves the participants time and makes them more likely to
participate.
Objective 2, Strategy 1, Tactic 1- Fact sheet
In order to expect the community to want to help, the community must recognize
the need for the on-site spay and neuter facility. The first tactic used to do this is by
distributing a fact sheet with a press release that will be going to the media.
17
!"#$%%"&'()*$&+,
!
!"#$%%"&'()*$&+,(&',-./0(&()*$&,$1,2(#)*#+,,
This fact sheet will include the benefits of spaying and neutering pets. This will give the
media factual information to distribute in the form of editorials, features or any other type
story they may write about the photo contest.
Objective 2, Strategy 1, Tactic 2- Flyer
We also recommend the distribution of a flyer for people to take if they are
interested in the photo contest or if they have already registered. One side of the flyer
is completely devoted to facts about spaying and neutering pets. This will provide
individuals with factual knowledge that they can distribute to family and friends.
Objective 3, Strategy 1, Tactic 1- Fact Sheet
In order to generate a positive attitude toward the construction of the spay and
neuter facility, we suggest releasing fact sheets with positive information about the spay
and neuter facility and its benefits.
The problem LCHS has been facing is that many people do not know much
about the benefits a facility would bring to the community and the animals. We feel this
is a great way to put the information in their hands.
Objective 3, Strategy 1, Tactic 2- Flyer
The flyer will just serve as another way to get positive, factual information out to
the public. This flyer will contain facts about the benefits of a spay and neuter facility
along with key dates and information for the photo contest.
18
!"#$%%"&'()*$&+,
!
!"#$%%"&'()*$&+,(&',-./0(&()*$&,$1,2(#)*#+,
Objective 4, Strategy 1, Tactic 1- PSA
The final objective is to actually encourage people to take action and donate
money through participating in the photo contest. In order for people to know about the
event, some form of publicity must be used.
The first form of publicity we recommend utilizing is recording a Public Service
Announcement to be broadcast on local radio stations. This will notify the public of the
upcoming contest, important dates and who to contact for more information.
Objective 4, Strategy 1, Tactic 2- Press Release
The press release will also be a form of publicity for the photo contest. This is
just another way for LCHS to utilize the media and let both the active and aware publics
know about the event. This gives the public multiple opportunities to hear about the
upcoming deadlines and event.
Objective 4, Strategy 1, Tactic 3- Fact sheets
We recommend sending out fact sheets along with the press release. This will
give the media more in-depth information on the benefits of a spay and neuter facility,
as well as what LCHS is and what services they offer.
The fact sheets will serve as another tool to make the public aware of LCHS, the
photo contest and how their participation in the contest will make a difference in Lee
County. This is an important part of gaining support and encouraging locals to take
action and donate.
19
!"#$%%"&'()*$&+,
!
!"#$%%"&'()*$&+,(&',-./0(&()*$&,$1,2(#)*#+,
Objective 4, Strategy 2, Tactic 1- Widget
Our final strategy in getting people to take action and donate is to make it as
easy as possible to participate in the photo contest. Our first tactic in doing this is to
embed the widget in LCHS’s current Web site.
Once again this puts everything about the photo contest at the participant’s
fingertips. Having everything available in one spot on the Web site keeps participants
well-informed of the progress of the contest. We also believe that being able to see the
monetary progress of the contest will encourage people to join in and donate also.
Objective 4, Strategy 2, Tactic 2- Flash site
The second tactic used for this strategy is the creation of a Flash site where the
pet photos can be viewed. This site can also be embedded into LCHS’s current Web
site. This is another way to keep the contest at the participants’ fingertips and gives
them a place to bring friends and show them what is going on.
The Flash site will also get them excited, as they will be looking at the photos and
selecting their favorites. Once they have their favorites, they will want them to win and
in turn vote on them.

We designed a communication strategy in the form of a schedule for Stacee
Strength and LCHS. LCHS’s busiest month is going to be May, where we plan to try and
get the most accomplished.
The first week of May is when an article in the LCHS Paw Prints Newsletter will
go out to the public. The desired public is people who are subscribed to the newsletters
in hope that they will become aware of the Pet Pals Calendar Contest and make other
people aware as well.
May 1, 2009, is when we will send out the press release for the Pet Pals
Calendar Kick-Off. We want Lee County pet owners to be our main target. Secondly, we
will also send out a PSA about the kick-off on May 1.
The widget we have created for the LCHS web site will be published on the
website on June 6, 2009. The function of the widget is to remind the contestants of the
time span they have to enter their pet photo in to the Pet Pals Calendar contest. It will
act as a countdown until the last day photos can be submitted.
Lastly, we are going to place the flash site we have created on the LCHS web
site as well on June 6. The flash site will contain all of the pictures of the pets that are
being submitted for the contest. Contestants will be able to go online and find the
picture they submitted and look at other pictures that people have submitted as well.

Our terminal goal is to provide all animals within the Lee County Area the ability
to be spay and neutered in a safe and sterile environment. If our campaign achieves
this goal we will have done our job effectively. The completion of the terminal objective
will be gauged by the completion of the intermediate, attitudinal, informational and
behavioral objectives listed below:
• Intermediate: To raise $200,000 for the construction of a spay and neuter
facility through donations from the community by.
• Informational: To inform the Lee County community of the need of the
spay and neuter facility.
• Attitudinal: To promote a positive feeling toward the spay and neuter
facility through the Lee County area.
• Behavioral: To encourage people to donate money to the construction of
the spay and neuter facility.
The LCHS needs to raise roughly $30,000 so that they can start and complete
construction of the spay and neuter facility. Our campaign hopes to raise that money,
but will be considered successful if we can raise at least half of that money.
The attitudinal and informational objectives will be judged based on the
completion of the behavioral objectives as it is gauged by people’s donation to the fund
for the construction of the facility.

Widget Tutorial
The Widget is designed with Lee County residents in mind. It will update them
on the status of the fundraiser or how much money has been raised. It will also remind
them how many days are left to vote for a pet.
The first thing that you will want to with this widget is to edit a few attributes.
Go to www.sproutbuilder.com. In the top-right hand corner there is a login field.
The e-mail you will use is "[email protected]" and the password is
"petpals2010". Once you log on, click on "Launch Sprout Builder". On the left hand
column, click on the widget titled "LCHS Sprout". This will launch the widget editor.
Please do not edit my personal sprout below it.
Login: [email protected]
Password: petpals2010
The reason that I am using my account is because I am a student. Sprout
Builder will soon not be free to the public unless you are a student. I would hate it if this
widget were unusable because of this.
I think that you will find editing this widget fairly easy. We have made this Widget
to help you with this campaign. Please feel free to edit anything on in that you see fit.
Now we need to edit the actual widget.

!"#$%&'

!"#$%&'
On the homepage of the widget, there is counter that is counting down the days
until voting ends. When you launch this widget, you will want to adjust the counter
accordingly.
All you have to do is click on the counter (circled in red). A menu for the
attributes of the counter will appear in the bottom-right hand corner of your screen.
Under the "component properties" menu (circled in green), simply find the "End Date"
property (circled in blue) and choose the day that voting will end. Once it has been
properly adjusted, be sure to save the widget by clicking the save button in the top-right
hand corner.

Next, click on the master pages tab on the bottom toolbar (circled in red). Then
click on the bottom link button titles "View Photo Submissions" (circled in blue). You will
then enter the url of the Petpals Calendar Web Gallery where pet photos can be viewed.
Do this under the links and “tracking menu” in the bottom right hand corner (circled in
green). Preview the widget and test the link. Once everything works, be sure to save
your progress.
48
!"#$%&'

!"#$%&'
Finally, on the Progress page, you need to update the progress bar reflecting the
monetary value of contributions made. This can be done in a similar fashion as the
steps previously mentioned. Click on the progress page (circled in red). Next, click on
the ChipIn box (circled in blue). Finally edit the appropriate fields such as goal, end
date and Money Raised. You will want to edit the "offline $ raised"(circled in green) to
reflect how much is made. Once this has been adjusted appropriately previews to
double check your changes and then save.

!"#$%&'

!"#$%&'
Now that you are done editing the Widget, you can now save and publish it. Do
this by clicking the “Publish” button in the top right hand corner. Our Widget is now
ready. A page will appear telling us “Your Sprout is Ready”. On the right hand side of
the screen, there will be a black box containing numerous ways to share the Widget.
We are going to copy the embed code. Click the small copy button towards the bottom
right of the black box. You can now past this code into the LCHS website’s html code
wherever you see fitting. Once you have done this, the Widget should then appear on
the site.
Note: You do not have to embed the Widget again when you edit it. It will automatically
update for you.

Pet Pals Calendar Photo Gallery Webpage Tutorial
This web page will display submitted photos for the calendar. This tutorial will
walk you through the creation process of this page.
First you need to install the Picasa software. It can be found on the compact disc
provided in this book.
Once Picasa has been installed, you need to place all of the submitted photos in
one folder. Place the folder in an easy place to get to like your Desktop. Title the folder
with what will appear on the page. A good example would be "2010 Pet Pals Calendar
Photos". It doesn't matter what you decide on, just make sure it is a good title for the
page.
It is very important that you rename all of the photos to the names of that pet.
This how they will appear on the webpage.
Once you have created this folder, you need to add the "LCHS Photo Gallery
Web Template" folder to the Picasa web template folder. This can be done by going to
"My Computer" from your desktop and then clicking on the "C" hard drive. Then open
the "Program Files" folder. Find the "Google" folder and open it. Next open the "Picasa
3" folder. After that, open the "Web" folder. Finally, open up the "template" folder.
Now you need to place the "LCHS Photo Gallery Web Template" folder in the
"Template" folder. The "LCHS Photo Gallery Web Template" can also be found on the
provided disc.

Once the folder has been placed, you can then close the windo!"
We now need to launch Picasa.
Once Picasa is running, you should notice that it has automatically imported your
pictures from your computer. On the left hand side of the screen, find the "2010 Pet
Pals Calendar Photos" we created earlier. Click on the folder in the left hand menu. Be
sure not to select just a single photo. We don't want to make a webpage of just one pet.
Once you have the folder selected click on the "Folder" button at the top of the screen.
Then choose "Export As HTML Page". Choose to export the picture at 640 pixels and
then give the webpage a name. I suggest that it be "2010 Pet Pals Calendar Photo
Submissions". You can now save it to an easy to access location such as the desktop.
You have now created an interactive webpage of all photo submissions. This
created folder can now be uploaded with the rest of your web content.
