Raising awareness of ADHD in Adults through Connection

The goal was to motivate Gen Y-ers and adults who were previously diagnosed with ADHD to take an online quiz at OwnYourADHD.com, then talk with a doctor.

Lead media agency Good Apple also spread rich media and banner placements across MTV.com, Hulu.com and NBC.com. The agency was so accurate with placements, in fact, that some older ADHD patient advocates-who make it their business to track marketing activities-had not seen the campaign.
