Why We Give


In early 2008, Epic Advertising was going through a lot of changes and looking at how its marketing efforts could have a global impact in nontraditional ways. While it didn't have a lot of extra money, one area it did want to focus on was philanthropy. Mike Sprouse explains how –and why — his company is now making a difference.

A very “small” lookalike? / Une “toute petite” ressemblance?

Une idée aussi simple, il y avait fort “à parier” que ça avait déjà été fait. Et même si ce n’est pas à 100% identique bien sur (ne soyons pas de mauvaise foi), il y a quand même une petite ressemblance assez grande pour qu’elle soit amusante!

Redes sociais para portadores de doenças

socialhearth.jpg

Começou a surgir uma tendência entre as empresas do setor fármaco, em criar ou patrocinar redes sociais, ricas em conteúdos orientados especialmente para portadores de doenças. Dessa forma, as pessoas/usuários podem trocar experiências entre si, além de obter uma relação menos distante com as empresas.

Exemplos:

Psoriasis The Naked Truth“: A Wyeth criou uma comunidade online para reunir histórias e fotos de pessoas portadoras de Psoríase, numa forma de amenizar o problema.

Children with Diabetes“: Comunidade online para crianças e adultos se familiarizarem com questões relacionadas a cura da diabetes, desenvolvida pela Johnson&Johnson em parceria com duas ONGs.

CFvoice“: Um espaço lúdico de motivação, incentivo e relacionamento para portadores de Fibrose Cística. Um produto da Novartis.

The PatientsLikeMe Transplants Community“: A Novartis, em parceria com a PatientsLikeMe, também patrocina uma rede social para transplantados, que mesmo em versão beta, já contabiliza mais de 820 membros.

socialnet.jpg

Estas redes sociais ajudam a proporcionar um menor preconceito entre os próprios portadores de doenças que, muitas vezes, acham que são diferentes, únicos, e acabam se sentindo excluídos.

Os problemas sociais são amenizados quando existe um espaço como uma comunidade virtual onde elas podem compartilhar problemas e soluções. Motivação de pessoa para pessoa. É o futuro!
