speed up the process charge high
fees.

33. CASE: STAD KORTRIJK
The city of Kortrijk went
searching for a creative solution
to inform co-workers about new
projects they were launching and
a way for citizens to expres their
proud ‘Kortrijkenaren’ feeling.
?
!
Co- workers didn’t get first to know
info about projects. Also the citizen
questionnaire pointed out that
people didn’t have the right tools to
express their feelings about their
city.
PROJECT CONTENT
• Inform and recruit internal and external
ambassadors
• Segmentize the ambassadors matching them
to themes: Service, events, culture, sports.
• The copy and content was adjusted to the theme
of interest. Also the value and appreciation
of being an ambassador was emphasized
• People got first to know content and were
able to share on all social media.
• The ultimate goal to have the internal and
external ambassadors as a central point of
the ‘Kortrijkenaren’ feeling and feedback.
