5. Justification of the Idea
This campaign idea is designed keeping in mind all walks of life but more focus is given on youth –the future generation.
My first target group is Bangladesh cricket team because they use tiger symbol more often than anyone else. So
involving them with the campaign will be a great leverage itself. Big corporate houses can be sponsor and they can do
their CSR activities through donating money to save tiger and because of their involvement, it will be much more easier
to spread news that tiger’s lifeline is on stake. Youth is Bangladesh’s power . So a campaign like that without university
and school students is unthinkable. The campaign aim is to create awareness and do everything needed to save tigers,
so involvement of people is a must. Through targeting TV and Facebook celebrities, the campaign can reach more
people . The celebrities has huge fan followers so when the celebrities request their fans to be aware that will work for
the campaign. Forest rangers and forest department are actually in the rescue mission so it is much more important to
motivate and educate them to save tiger to save eco-system.
The targeted media is selected based on target groups. To be reach all this groups , the campaign has to use these
media. Most of concerned people nowadays are connect to internet so reach that level of people, a website and
Facebook is a must. Basically, content marketing, we can reach many more people if we can make the content viral and
that our aim should be.
At least 10 lac people can be aware through the campaign without the involvement of Bangladesh Cricket team but
once they put the special jersey to save tiger , we can expect more than 85 lac people’s reach.
It is more important to reach the right groups of people rather than to reach many people who actually can not help the
cause .In this campaign idea, it focuses more on those people who can actually help to save tiger and their identity.
