Sister Pact
After The New York Times reported that a disproportionately high percentage of African-American women in Memphis die from breast cancer, Genentech made it a priority to help.
The core campaign concept — making a pact with a friend to get a mammogram — taps into existing trusted relationships to drive both awareness and participation. Local influencers helped reach out to the targeted audience of African-American women aged 35 to 60.
The campaign creative features local women and their friends realistically filmed together in their hometown environment. Execution included ads (digital, print, broadcast, and out of home), local events, a call center, and Sisterpact.com.
Local media reached more than 425,000, and Sisterpact.com draws 2,500 unique monthly visitors. Most importantly, a survey revealed 79% of targeted women had the highest likelihood of scheduling a mammogram, 75% were likely to encourage a friend to get a mammogram, and more than 33% claimed to have told a friend about getting a mammogram.
