In a crisis, an organization must speak to multiple audiences, both technical and general, addressing concerns with empathy while educating with clarity.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Approach<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>ChangeMakers developed and executed a communications campaign targeting decision-makers, technical experts, and the general public \u2013 rolled out simultaneously. We engaged each partner independently, allowing the specific concerns of each audience to guide our messaging. This ensured our client communicated effectively to multiple stakeholders, without confusing the non-technical segment of our audience. We also created clear and specific timelines to allow customers to understand the processes our client was undertaking to revamp their verification solutions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Results<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>As each audience had their concerns addressed, and the overall impact was contained to a small segment of customers. Within weeks, trust was rebuilt with partners, and new verification solutions were approved. The incident had no long-term negative impact on reputation and in fact strengthened our trust with several key decision makers and partners.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1613,"template":"","client":[149],"class_list":["post-1612","work","type-work","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 -
