TGC Launches Advocacy Program Online Powered by Binary Digital Advertising

The first phase of the lockdown brought forth a sense of bewilderment and chaos among the general public. Fear and panic ensued. Most were driven by fake news over social media.

One More Day focused on the “good truth”, centered on informative, empowering stories to inspire action and be a beacon of hope, seeking to shed light on the inspiring actions of people combating COVID-19 and the negativity and fake news surrounding it. This was done by providing informative and uplifting content via a website and Facebook page for Fiipinos whose social media usage increased during the pandemic, creating a digital environment vulnerable to disinformation.

Produced in 8 business days, the agency had to use its own resources while balancing business continuity amid economic disruptions. As a result, the team successfully launched the project, gaining 487 likes in 5 days with a 52,201 reach on its Facebook page.

As the campaign’s primary platform, the One More Day website featured multiple segments that support the focus on “good truth”:

Info Dashboard

Since the launch, the website generated thousands of views registering an average session duration of 8 minutes 40 seconds –160% higher than the benchmark. The official Facebook page reached 1.7 million audience and generated nearly 3 million impressions. The campaign drew attention from COVID-response dedicated organizations, reaching out for promotional support and partnership.

This paved way for other activities – 1. The Heroes for Heroes, a virtual run allowing participants to reward frontliners, and 2. The COVID-19 Counter Culture, a webinar series helping individuals and businesses navigate the pandemic and power through for one more day.
