In-store selfie card 

Consumers start their journey towards vaccination in store as they enter a CVS Pharmacy location to receive their shot. It was important to design around this in-store experience, providing consumers with a "Selfie-card" they can use during the 15 min waiting period.   

This selfie card was created due in part to the widespread sharing of CDC vaccination cards on social media which contains private information. In order to try to protect customers' privacy, we created selfie cards that consumers could take a photo with to share on social media. 

The card was designed with two different activation points for consumers. The first being the front, which asks consumers to write in what they are #OneStepCloser to. The second is on the back, where consumers can scan the QR code that brings them to the Instagram AR effect. This serves to support populations that are more comfortable with social platforms such as Instagram and those that may only want to share to close friends and family.

Interactive IG filter 

The AR filter on Instagram lets people simulate being in a place or doing an activity that they are #OneStepCloser to. Consumers can choose between 8 backgrounds to match what they’re excited to be one step closer to, or the generic CVS branded background. They can access the filter in 3 ways: by scanning the QR code on the selfie card, following @CVSpharmacy on Instagram, or following a friend that has posted using our filter. The filter was designed with brand experience and customization in mind, with the added function of multiple backgrounds consumers can play around and personalize how they wanted to share their #OneStepCloer story.

Tiktok/Instagram stickers

Stickers were designed to be fun,

eye-catching, and inclusive to maximize the amount of engagement on Instagram. Consumers can add these to their stories next to their selfies after getting their shots to call attention to the campaign and their vaccination moment. These stickers are celebratory and on-trend, appealing to younger audiences. Stickers were also used in the #OneStepCloser TikTok challenge.

Results

CVS has vaccinated over 10 million people as of April 1st, 2021

Stickers had 231.4 million views in the first 30 days and were the top performing stickers in their search category.

Campaign awarded BEST IN SHOW at the 2022 ANA In-House Agency Awards.
