Quu supercharges cause marketing
The power of cause marketing campaigns
Most businesses try to gain the attention of consumers by promoting product benefits. Cause marketing takes a different approach, appealing to people with emotion.
The push to buy is still clear, but an added incentive leaves consumers feeling they’ve done something good.
Using radio ads in cause marketing drives awareness to a message or social movement. Companies can also share opportunities to donate to charities or non-profits by attending special events or purchasing products.

Quu strengthens cause marketing campaigns
Using Quu with cause marketing campaigns is easy.
An example: The Hanger store teams up with WQUU to collect warm coats throughout the local area. Throughout the month, The Hanger truck travels to select locations. Listeners are encouraged to visit the truck to exchange gently-worn coats and jackets for a store discount and winter-themed drinks like hot cocoa.
Adding Quus to The Hanger’s radio commercials boosts ad recall by echoing event locations and hashtags.

Message-focused campaigns
