Client Testimonial

peace-corps
Stephen Maroon
Peace Corps
Former Marketing Manager

I worked with Goodwill Communications for 5 years when managing the PSA campaigns for the Peace Corps. During the seven years that Goodwill Communications distributed Peace Corps PSAs, we generated 782,000 leads, and 18,028 Volunteers actually joined. While there was an active direct mail program and college recruiting efforts during this time, paid advertising was minimal, meaning that PSAs contributed to the lion’s share of recruiting leads. What more can I say about their work?

Charles Roggero
Social Security Administration
PSA Producer

We have worked with Goodwill Communications since 1990, and there is very little in the world of public service advertising that they have not done for our agency. They have orchestrated focus group sessions; they handled a test of theater advertising in 40 theaters and conducted surveys on effectiveness; they coordinated a joint campaign with another of their clients to promote savings; and they developed tools for our field public affairs outreach staff to use in local communities. Beyond that, they did a great job with PSA distribution. According to Nielsen, our “Quiz Show” TV PSA generated over 55,000 airplays due to their marketing efforts. All together their work has generated just under $84 million in verified advertising support for SSA.

Creative Services Department U.S. Navy Recruiting Command
Director

I managed the Audio-Visual Department for the Navy Recruiting Command when Goodwill Communications was hired to revamp our entire PSA program in 1985. They did an incredible job in terms of lowering our costs, developing more strategic distribution plans, re-positioning our PSAs to get more airtime, and using new tools to evaluate impact. Because they have experience in paid advertising – which very few distributors have – that helped us to integrate the PSA program into our overall advertising program and attain our recruiting goals.
