Norfolk County Council Fostering

Reaching all 7 local authority districts with AdSmart

Background

Norfolk Country Council wanted to promote their foster care services throughout all 7 of their local authority districts, in order to generate enquiries and to recruit new foster cares.

Objectives

The campaign objectives were clear:

To increase awareness of the Norfolk County Council fostering scheme.
To generate more enquiries, that would lead to foster cares throughout Norfolk.
To myth bust who can be a foster carer.

Targeting

Norfolk Country Council matched their own Experian mosaic to their AdSmart campaign to target people who are most likely to make an enquiry to become a full-time foster care from the Norfolk area. We also utilised heat mapping software to enabling us to ensure each of the 7 local authority districts had the correct catch up uptake.

Top Line Results

As a direct result of running with a AdSmart TV advertising campaign the fostering team from Norfolk County Country saw an increase in:

  • Enquiries were significantly higher in January almost double the previous years number following the AdSmart campaign.
  • A greater quality of enquiries from people who viewed the advert.
  • A larger conversation rate from people who enquired onto taking the next step.
  • The TV commercial raised awareness in people who had previously thought about fostering but had not pursued making an enquiry, leading them to make contact.
  • The TVC was well received by our foster carers who were unaware how the AdSmart platform worked – which added us running further campaigns due to the commercial running in their homes. Proving the Mosaic data worked and aligned with our Foster Carer’s key attributes.
