The CMC team selected EVR Advertising to revamp the insititution’s digital marketing strategy due to EVR’s proven track record in healthcare marketing and its expertise in crafting compelling online campaigns.

Challenge/Objective

Strategic Approach

To help better position NEHVI as a leader in delivering compassionate heart care, the strategic approach focused on promotion through education about the specific treatments offered, highlighting innovative technologies and procedures that NEHVI was “first” to deliver as well as patient testimonial stories.

Tactics

The campaign was dedicated to educating the population on the importance of heart care and emphasizing NEHVI’s history of innovative “firsts.” The campaign tagline, “Where Heart Meets Innovation,” was adapted from the hospital’s master brand messaging to give NEHVI its own voice while aligning with the familiar master brand. The prominent message of “First at Hearts and Second Chances” was woven throughout the campaign.

A robust mix of traditional and digital channels ran throughout the campaign, driving traffic to the custom “firsts” landing page, countoncmc.org.
