The Challenge

Fidelity Investments came to us wanting to widen its audience to include 18- to 30-year-old females, who were not yet a significant part of their current demographic. The challenge was to create content that was informative, helpful, and also fun and engaging. To achieve this, our team was tasked with developing a content strategy that would target this demographic through a series of concise and to-the-point videos.

The primary objective was to educate young women about the basics of investing and money management using short, engaging videos. Fidelity aimed to connect with a younger demographic by presenting financial information in a manner that resonated with their interests and preferences.

The Approach

Here’s a breakdown of the steps we took to achieve our project goals:

  1. Audience research: We conducted in-depth research on the preferences and behaviors of the target audience. Understanding their likes and habits was necessary for tailoring the content to be relatable.
  2. Simplified language: Recognizing the need for accessibility, we recommended minimizing financial jargon. The aim was to ensure that young female consumers felt a direct connection to the content.
  3. Engaging visuals and analogies: In addition to using simplified language, the team also incorporated engaging visuals and analogies. Each video was centered around a common theme, such as relating credit and debit to sports. The content was designed to be visually appealing and made use of simple graphics to enhance engagement.
  4. Strategic placement: The videos were strategically placed on apps, courses, and educational platforms frequented by the target demographic. This ensured that the content reached the intended audience in spaces they already engaged with.

Regarding the videos, they said:

“The overall production quality of the video deliverables was very good. The team provided effective solutions whenever we encountered occasional technical issues. Video projects are time-consuming, and especially with this project and working on 10 videos in a waterfall approach, there were a lot of moving parts, and deadlines were consistently met.”
