The Situation
The American Nurses Association came to ab+c to help rebrand and drive demand for their National Database of Nursing Quality Indicators (NDNQI). Their end goal was to build enough interest in the product to make it more desirable for a third party to purchase the entire business line.
Rebranding
The StrategyWorking with ANA’s sales staff, we identified the factors prospects consider when deciding on a tool to track nursing quality indicators (cost, patient safety, staff satisfaction, etc.). We then developed a content strategy that delivered useful information via webinars and white papers to the target audience and drove them to a lead capture form on a website we created (http://ndnqi.a-b-c.com). We also developed a new identity package and trade show booth graphics, and email, digital and direct mail support materials.

Summary and Recommendations
In Q1 2014, ab+c ran a digital media campaign for ANA targeting decision makers within hospitals. The call-to-action was to download NDNQI’s quality brief titled “Reducing Falls. Increasing Quality.” We used Google and Bing/Yahoo search engines, targeting keywords around the quality indicators with hospitals. We also targeted NDNQI’s brand name to drive highly qualified visits to the site.
Both Google and Bing/Yahoo ran a variety of text ads that were relevant to the keywords.
We also used the HealthLeaders.com white paper program to push the paper out to its visitors.
Since ANA operates a large number of sites that target the audience we were looking to reach, we ran banner ads on them directing visitors to the landing page where they could download the quality brief.
Overall, the paid search campaign was successful, driving 2,754 clicks to the website and 149 downloads of the quality brief. HealthLeaders.com produced 19 leads, and ANA-operated sites drove an additional 1,341.

All tactics, including direct mail, email and trade show follow-ups generated more than 6,000 leads into the sales pipeline. This increased interest in the product helped to persuade Press Ganey (a national provider of patient satisfaction surveys, management reports, and national comparative databases) that NDNQI would be a good addition to their portfolio of services.
