Mission Statement
Executive Summary
Instagram are under the age of 35, which is why millennials will
be targeted on Instagram. Using the hashtag #livesmartlivegreen
we will promote enthusiasm about being a part of a community
that is trying to attain a more sustainable way of life. A poster
child will also be used towards the end of the campaign to
promote interactive involvement among consumers. We want
to create a sense of unity among our consumers by the use of
Sustainable Sam, an identifiable figure and our #GreenTeam
hashtag. On Facebook all audiences will be targeted in a range
of differenct facets due to the wide array of users. We have
created experiential marketing methods and events which will
be promoted and coincide with social media.
Awareness and Education Events: Three events were
constructed to increase awareness and educate the public
about First Coast Green Pages.
Live Green Play Green- April 25
The Green Tie Gala- July 18
Jacksonville Downtown Artwalk- April 1, June 3 and
September 2
Marketing Objective: To increase current brand awareness
and education among north Florida residents for nine months.
Schedule: Our agency created a 10-month plan that will run
from January 1, 2015 to October 4, 2015 (Green Lion Festival
2015 date).
Client Background
saw a need in the northeast Florida community for a resource for people to find vetted green
talents, products and services. So she created the resource for the community. The Queen of
Green Boren is not only the Executive Director of First Coast Green Pages, but a driving force
behind LiveSMART, a tool for spreading awareness for household sustainability.
LiveSMART is a trailer built completely by volunteers that showcases sustainable materials
for your home and ideas of how you can renovate any building into becoming more green.
This trailer will hopefully be
completed by the end of the
year. LiveSmart helps promote
green pages by showing how
people can make their homes
more environmentally friendly. It
can also educate them on how
to live sustainability, while saving
money on things such as their
electric bill.
Boren is also the Executive Director of the The United States Green Building Council of
north Florida Chapter. The USGBC is a non-profit organization that spreads knowledge and
encourages consumers to operate with environmentally friendly buildings and services. It
was founded in 1993, and since then has made many contributions in the advancement of
sustainable buildings being developed. The USGBC North Florida chapter held its first meeting
August 19, 2004 with over 35 participants. Since their initial meeting USGBC has expanded
to over 230 members. The chapter now includes 11 counties in northeast Florida, Jacksonville
being its biggest city involved.
To create a sustainable region and green buildings for all in north Florida
within this generation (2040) through open, collaborative education,
leadership, and action. Essentially linking people, planet and
profits through green buildings because
of their impact and volume.
-The USGBC of North
Florida mission statement
One of the most visible facets of the USGBC is the Leadership in Energy & Environmental
Design (LEED), a Green Building Rating System. LEED is a green building certification program
that recognizes best-in-class building strategies and practices. The LEED Green Building Rating
System was one of the main reasons the USGBC was the fourth recipient to be awarded
the Henry C. Turner Prize for Innovation
in Construction Technology, awarded
by The Turner Corporation. The LEED
Green Building Rating System provides
a way to measure the sustainability
and environmental impact of a building.
The Rating System was established in
the year 2000, and has granted 240
buildings with one of the four levels of
LEED Certification.
SWOT Analysis
d
Strengths:
First Coast Green Pages is the original premier directory of its kind in Northeast Florida.
The modern design of the website and developing phone app appeals to consumers of all
ages.
The different categories of the directory attracts a broad variety of consumers.
First Coast Green Pages was created specifically to provide a service and benefit the
consumer.
First Coast Green Pages is backed by a locally and nationally recognized group, the U.S.
Green Building Council of North Florida chapter.
Weaknesses:
The social media accounts for First Coast Green Pages are underutilized and there
are many accounts under each platform which can be confusing.
The Jacksonville area does not value green living as much as other areas,
such as California.
The words green and sustainable sometimes have negative
connotations in the target area.
As of now, there are several different logos for each part of the USGBC
North Florida chapter, there should be only one to create consistency.

Situation Analysis
10
Audience Analysis
Based on the information collected by Collaborative Ink and discussion with the client there are
two primary audiences that we will focus on. The first and main audience we will be focusing
on is Actives. The second audience that we felt was important to focus on in order to create a
successful campaign is Millennials.
The two audiences are determined by age brackets.
Actives are between ages 33 to 50 or more.
Millennials are between ages 18 to 32.
The audience was developed within the parameters of northeast Florida. The reason for this is
because our clients network is focused around the first coast.
Actives
Predominantly Caucasian, professionals that are married.
They generally are homeowners, with a high social status, and have disposable income to
follow through on their green values.
They are seen as leaders in the communities, and are well educated.
They are very involved in volunteer work in their communities.
Public image is very important to actives and being green is an important part of their personal
image.
Many actives lead adventurous lifestyles and are outspoken with A-type personalities.
Millennials
In the U.S., millennials average 23 percent of the population.
Millennials are typically divided into two subgroups the younger, 18-25, and the older 25 to
32.
The highest index for millennials is typically college towns or near naval bases.
Millennials are greatly connected to the world, they are multicultural and they value
their work force.
Younger millennials are much more likely to rent their first house or live at
home longer.
Most millennials are label seekers who are willing to pay extra for a
brand reflecting the images they hope to convey about themselves like
smartphones or hybrid cars.
Currently millennials are the largest demographic population purchasing

Research
Primary Research
Collaborative Inks primary research tactics included a consumer survey, a business survey, and
a focus group. All of these were necessary to understand the thought process that our different
target audiences experience while choosing the specific businesses to fulfill their services and
product needs. The consumer survey gave us the knowledge about what consumers thought
were most important when it came to sustainability and how far they were willing to go to be
green. The business survey gave us insight on why businesses do, or do not practice green
business strategies, and if they plan to in the future. The focus group was necessary in order
to gain insight into the thought process of millennials and actives on a much more personal
level. The combination of individual input and professional experience from the focus groups
allowed us to see specific behavior and gather ideas in relation to sustainability and going green.
Together all three of these research tactics provided us with the information necessary to fit our
businesses and consumers needs appropriately and accurately.
Consumer Survey
Understanding how consumers in the area practice sustainability, as well as, how they feel about
being green will lead to great success for First Coast Green Pages. Collaborative Inks research
team conducted a survey consisting of questions about perceptions of sustainability and the
environment. We asked the same questions of both our primary and secondary audience. The
team divided the data received into two different demographic categories: millennials, age 1832, and actives, age 33-50+.
Millennials: When our research team asked millennials if the economic savings aspect of
sustainability is very important or important, 44 percent of responders between the ages
of 18 and 25 agreed, while none thought that is was not important; and 6 percent
between the ages of 26 and 32 were generally interested in the money saving
aspect of the green movement.
12
When people were asked what they do daily to be more green, one of
the first answers they gave is typically recycling. For our survey when we
asked consumers if they recycle, over half of millennials, 52 percent,
said that they do not recycle, while only 41 percent said they do. This
13
14
15
homes: twenty percent said they compost, 16 percent have energy-saving light bulbs, 13
percent buy organic and practice general energy conservation around their homes. From this,
knowing what practices our audience already use will give us a head start with educating them
on easy ways to practice sustainability through our campaign.
When asked about the word green 16 percent felt the word was hippy, compared to only
seven percent of millennials.
Fourteen percent learned about being green from the Internet; 13 percent learned from peers
and family. This tells us that the Internet and word-of-mouth have a similar role as an avenue for
information, also knowing that this age group mainly uses the Internet for information is great for
our client.
Eighteen percent thought that social responsibility is a reason consumers are interested in the
green movement. Seventeen percent of these responders reported that the economic savings
aspect of sustainability is very important, while 16 percent reported that the environmental
issue aspect of sustainability is very important. This information shows that all respondents
found something important about the green movement.
Age 40-49: Forty percent of respondents had a high school diploma, 22 percent had an
associates degree, 36 percent had a bachelors degree and 25 percent had a masters degree.
This age group, was closest to the millennials with how much they recycle; 35 percent of these
responders recycle, while 23 percent do not. Also another interesting similarity was found when
asked about their feelings on the word green, both 38 percent of this age group and millennials
reported the word green is important. Both of these findings are fundamental for the campaign
because it means that the majority of our audience is currently attempting at the green effort
and thinks its important.
Thirty six percent of these responders were neutral in believing it was easy to become
sustainable and energy efficient while 21 percent disagreed.
16
17
18
Business Survey
19
Energy conservation and recycling were both used by 68 percent of the businesses, and 56
percent practiced water conservation. Waste prevention was only at 37 percent and 25 percent
of the businesses patronized green vendors. This information tells us that business are at least
trying to make an effort to be green. For the campaign to be effective we must fulfill the job of
assisting these business green efforts.
Next we asked about the future of these businesses, six of the companies responded that they
were very likely to include sustainability efforts in the future of their business, five were somewhat
likely and five were likely. Fortunately, none of the business responded that they were not likely.
A question of whether or not consumers of these businesses have ever requested green
products was asked. Ten of the businesses responded that customers request them to use
green products, while six did not have customers that request it. Following that question,
13 businesses said that they feel their business would be seen as a better company if it
were considered a green business. When asked about their companies experience with green
services, 43 percent use Energy Star, 37 percent have read information on it, 31 percent
have used LEED and 31 percent said other. These questions provide good information for
the campaign because all business want to cater and please their consumer. Therefore, if the
majority of consumers want greener products and will hold these business with higher regard
if they become more sustainable, these businesses are more likely to transform into green
companies.
The last question asked was, why the businesses have not been using green building technology.
Five of the businesses claimed cost, two said the complexity of the information, one said cost
of green technology and eight said other. This information provided us with reasons on why
businesses say no to green, our job is to find ways to make it easier for them to become green.
Focus Group
20
21
22
They thought the website is copy heavy and didnt like the layout. They said they would have no
idea what the website was for if they saw the homepage for the first time. These are ideas we
will pass on to the client for consideration.
The Millennials were slightly confused how the LiveSMART trailer tied into the First Coast Green
Pages. They thought that the idea of LiveSMART is good but it needs to tie into green pages
more- maybe green pages should be a product within LiveSMART. They also agreed with the
actives that they wouldnt know what the trailer was if they were to walk up to it.
One member of the actives focus group pointed out that they didnt like #livelikesam, because
they felt it references someone passing away, so we did not choose to use that hashtag.
Secondary Research
The secondary research was compiled of previous research that has been done on clients
comparable to First Coast Green Pages. The research also educated us about what our client
is trying to achieve. The information was used to help Collaborative Ink create objectives and
tactics in order to provide a successful and strong campaign. It gives us insight on things that
the client can work on, as well as things that the client is already doing correctly.
Benefits of being green: The typical answer of why people do not go green is that it is
too costly. However, after further research we found that this is not necessarily true. Going
green can reduce household costs significantly, it just takes a universal effort. According to
goinggreentoday.com if everyone in America were to wash their clothes exclusively with cold
water we would save up to $3 billion dollars in energy cost annually, and cut down on national
CO2 emissions by a whole percent. Simple things can be done to conserve energy and reduce
your households daily cost. Such as, paying attention to lights left on or keeping the temperature
at a consistent degree versus constantly changing it. According to the American Solar Energy
Society, the amount of sunlight that falls on the Earth in one minute is sufficient enough to power
the world for an entire year. Brite Idea Energy reported that solar panels have saved consumers
and business anywhere between 50 percent and 90 percent in costs. Shelton Grp.
stated the 82 percent of say that higher energy efficiency would cause them to
chose one new home over another.
Going green does not only save you money but can promote and improve
your health. Goingreentoday.com reported that residents who live in
walkable neighborhoods weigh on average 10 pounds less than those
who tend to be more sedentary.
23
Nevertheless, the main reason we are seeking to develop more sustainable habits is to conserve
our environment. If we do not take action now our future as a planet does not look very bright.
Every little change can help turn our environment around. From recycling, buying products
made in America, creating no chemical waste, not buying products from companies that use
animals for testing and buying products that are made from recycled items.
To bring this idea closer to home, Florida is the nations fourth most populous state, according
to the EPA, and it is projected to increase 50 percent by 2030. Although, since 2000, the water
use per person has declined in Florida, due to water conservation efforts, it is still predicted to
rise parallel with the increase in population. The major problem with this is that the Everglades
are slowly disappearing with the increased water consumption by our population. However, we
can do something about this by using special landscaping techniques, water-efficient irrigation
systems, reducing stormwater runoff, reducing household water usage and becoming more
efficient when watering our lawns and gardens. Floridians have the opportunity to save up to
46 million gallons of water each day if we just take these small efforts to turn our environment
around.
U.S. Green Building Council North Florida: The U.S. Green Building Council North Florida
Chapter is a non-profit promoting a sustainable economy through
awareness, education, marketing and transformation. Although, they
focus on many initiatives each year, their main focus is to promote
and achieve a sustainable region by the year 2040. The three main
initiatives they have established to reach their goal of sustainability are
awareness, education and policy. This organization seeks to link people,
planet and profit through green buildings because of their impact and
volume (USGBC). The North Florida chapter currently has locations in
11 counties with over 200 members.

LEED Certification: Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design. The U.S. Green
Building Council created the LEED certification program in order to shed light green
businesses and practices that are making an effort to use specific strategies
and tactics to be a sustainable organization. There are four different

lowest form of LEED and Platinum is the highest. The LEED program is
the only permanent green certification program and is currently being
used in over 120 countries.

First Coast Green Pages Promotes
Being Sustainable with MOSH Gala
JACKSONVILLE, Fla.; June 18, 2015 - First Coast Green Pages
is holding a gala event to celebrate the launch of their new
website on July 18, 2015. The event will be held from 6 p.m.
to 10 p.m. at the Museum of Science and History. Guests will
be able to enjoy heavy hors doeuvres and cocktails provided
by Anthonys Catering, while being introduced to what First
Coast Green Pages is all about.
The gala will be a green tie event and as such all guests
are encouraged to dress in formal attire. Accents of green or
green ties are strongly encouraged. During the event, there
will be a silent auction and guests will hear from Sarah Boren,
Executive Director of First Coast Green Pages.
First Coast Green Pages is a directory of environmentally
friendly and sustainable businesses that consumers can
easily access. Sarah Boren saw a need in the northeast
Florida community for a resource for people to find vetted
green talents, products and services so she decided to create
the resource. Join us on July 18th by supporting First Coast
Green Pages while enjoying dinner and events.
Campaign Objective 2:
Raise Business
Involvement
Social Media
We suggest using social media to engage with the local community businesses to increase
businesses involvement on the website. Businesses will be featured monthly on Facebook and
Instagram, giving them another incentive to signing up on the First Coast Green Pages website.
Every month we will post a green business of the month on Facebook and Instagram to publicize
the new businesses joining First Coast Green Pages. We will also highlight interesting things
that are happening at the specified business of the month or what the businesses are doing
to help the environment that month. Through use of social media the viewership of these new
organizations will increase. With this coincides increased individual discovery of First Coast
Green Pages.
Website Enhancement
Providing businesses with a user friendly and impressive website will give
businesses a desirable source to engage with. Since the website is in its
beginning stages we found minor changes that can enhance the overall
visual appeal of the website and lead to a user-friendly source.
35
Simplifying the design to be more similar to a directory type outlet, instead of a forum, would
allow users to quickly recognize the purpose of the website as a whole. The suggested changes
to the webpage would include: a prominent search tool with advanced specifications, removing
the lettering below the search bar and formating the categories to be bold and noticeable when
on the home page.
The content of the website should be updated to be contextually the same across both social
media platforms and firstcoastgreenpages.org. Also, including an About tab, with sub-tabs
that include: History, U.S Green Building Council, LEED and How We Work at the top menu bar
would be helpful. The About tab is needed so users can easily locate, with just one effortless
click, information on First Coast Green Pages. This will be helpful for both consumers and
businesses.
The radio PSA was recorded using the Sam announcers voice with soft music playing in the
background. The PSA targets businesses and emphasizes the importance of utilizing First
Coast Green Pages as an advertising and marketing outlet. First Coast Green Pages gives
businesses an opportunity to not only to promote their business but, inform consumers on what
their companies are doing to stimulate the green movement. This PSA explains how gained
publicity through the First Coast Green Pages website will help the business to thrive and further
sustainability in north Florida.

Every Monday we will release an informative post on Twitter, Facebook and Instagram explaining
a new way to be green. These posts will also show the importance of how living a green lifestyle
can save money. Our research has shown that the cost of green living is something that is a
deciding factor of whether or not our target audiences go green.
There are three events that are held throughout this campaign. Each month leading up to
the three events, we will include a promotional post about the event (Live Green Play Green
millennial event, Green Tie Gala active event, and Artwalk).

Sustainable Sam
Sam is also the leader of the Green Team. #GreenTeam will be the
hashtag we will be using to encourage people to join the Green Team.
By using the hashtag people will post pictures of themselves using green
products or services. We believe this will encourage people to feel a
sense of community as well as a sense of responsibility to become more
sustainable in their everyday lives to help that community. The sense of
community and the social media campaign will drive them to use First
Coast Green Pages as the hub of their new life towards sustainability.
Collaborative Ink chose to create one radio PSA, one informative video and one viral video to
raise awareness of First Coast Green Pages. The PSA was recorded to target actives and we
created the infographic video and viral video to emphasize the importance of First Coast Green
Pages and being part of the green movement.
The radio PSA was recorded using the same announcers voice and soft music playing in
the background as the business PSA. The PSA targeting actives emphasizes the fact that
going green will save the consumer money while creating a better future. This PSA exhibits the
importance of using the First Coast Green Pages website to look for green businesses that will
help the consumer to live a green lifestyle.
PSA For Actives:

EARNED DOLLARS WITH BUSINESSES THAT

and that is the LiveSMART trailer. This source allows for FCGP
to produce interactive and experiential marketing that appeals
to a wide range of people. We have included a suggested list
of locations that would allow the LiveSMART trailer to target a
large majority of the targeted audience throughout the north
Florida community. Also more specific events were created
for the downtown Artwalk to show the possibilities that are
allotted through the appropriate usage of the LiveSMART
trailer. By bringing the LiveSMART trailer to suggested events
and Artwalk, FCGP will be able to raise awareness through the
exciting and memorable experience of the LiveSMART trailer.

footsteps. By working at the Population Institute, the Smithsonian Institution on climate change
and biodiversity and later go on to earned her masters in environmental management at Duke.
Boren is an unbelievable women with many fans. Shes a real gem to have locally. Its her total
passion, create a sustainable world. said Sue Nussbaum, a Jacksonville local who reached
out to Boren six years ago in search for a recycling system, Her goal is to teach us how to live
a green life. Shes trying to get people to join together and create a healthier, cleaner, greener
planet.
After officially meeting with the amazing green woman in person, our campaigns class got
to work, developing a campaign that would help make First Coast Green Pages everything it
should be and more.
Not only were we given First Coast Green Pages as our client, but with it came the mobile
education device known as the LiveSMART trailer. The trailer was designed to help spread
education and awareness on how to build and maintain a sustainable home.
Boren made it extremely clear to us that this trailer should be a vital part of our campaign.
The class conducted surveys, focus groups, PSAs, rebranding ideas and an entirely new social
media plan along with special events to cater to First Coast Green Pages and the LiveSMART
trailer.
Along with our campaign objectives of raising funding, awareness and business involvement,
we also sought out to achieve the wants and dreams of the client.
Our goal as an agency is bring First Coast Green Pages vision, of creating a sustainable region
and green buildings for all in north Florida by 2040, to life.
