Well, what exactly is it?

An approach based on the consistent and systematicstrategic creation and delivery of marketing messages and materials.

A truly excellent integrated campaign takes the multi‐platform approach to the next level by using each channel to feed into an overarching story based on your target market’s stage.

Going deeper…layers of integration

This is enhanced when integration goes beyond just the basic communications tools. 

• Horizontal Integration ‐ across the marketing mix and across business functions 

• Vertical Integration ‐marketing and communications objectives support the corporate objectives and strategies 

• Data Integration ‐ collecting and sharing relevant data across different departments for a single supporter experience

• Internal Integration ‐ keeping all staff informed• External Integration – ensuring external partners work 

closely to deliver an integrated campaign

So, tell me again…the benefits of integration?

• Help target audience move through the various stages of your supporter lifecycle. 

• Increase profits through increased effectiveness. 

• A unified message has more impact than a disjointed myriad of messages.

• Research cites that images shared in advertising and direct mail improve both advertising awareness and mail shot responses. 

• Boost outcomes by stretching messages across several communications for supporters to become aware, consider, and ultimately donate time, talent or money.

Benefits of Integration

• Makes messages more consistent and therefore more credible. 

• Consistent images and relevant, useful, messages help nurture long term relationships with supporters.

• Saves money as it eliminates duplication in areas such as graphics, photography, messaging.
