About Project
The Workforce Development Board of Ventura County commissioned a Digital Insight survey in 2021 that showed that 5 out of 5 people did not know the name or services offered by the Workforce Development Board. Local employers were also unaware of WDBVC. The Workforce Development Board of Ventura County tasked CM to raise brand awareness, increase awareness of many grants, boost attendance at seminars, and provide program outreach and other communications services to connect employers with qualified, skilled talent and job seekers with employment and career development opportunities. The target market included businesses, jobseekers, constituents, Elected, stakeholders, and customers of focus under the federal Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act, such as English Language Learners, people with disabilities, people experiencing homelessness, disadvantaged youth, veterans, and more. Each campaign needed to recognize a separate grant, but Consortium Media designed a cohesive, integrated marketing plan and carefully curated copywriting and creativity to precisely target specific demographics.
