SMO for National Geographic Channel (NGC)

The leading Media & entertainment channels approached Icreon to help them utilise the potential of social media to interact with the audience and learn what they liked.
To begin with we linked their FB fan page with their Twitter account.  Daily updates were posted on them to notify/alert viewers about the shows. However, to feel the pulse of the public, Icreon suggested NGC to promote various events/show. Some of these include:

• Promote Earth Day as a special program for their viewers. This was suggested as Icreon is sensitized to the issue of climate change and believes in sustainability; and thought the vision behind Earth Day was an apt way of engaging people to be passionate about making a difference. An exclusive social media campaign was conceptualized and implemented to raise awareness about Earth Day amongst its fans on the theme of What you do Counts!
• Promote Flight of the Hawkz - an adventure reality series. For this a special premiere of the first episode of the show was organized for viewers on Facebook. This was called the premiere as it was aired two days before the telecast of the show on TV.
• Designed and developed Facebook Schedule & Reminder Application to allow usersto browse through the TV schedule of NGC and set alerts/reminders of their favouite programs.
