Médecins Sans Frontières - Concept and copy for the International charity’s recent Direct Marketing campaign in Ireland
Médecins Sans Frontières, the worldwide charity, wanted a new way to get their message through to a unique target audience – marathon runners seeking charities to fundraise for. I came up with this comic strip campaign postcard. On one side, there was a story outlining the committed work of the MSF team in war torn countries. On the other, there was a direct mail- style letter campaign making the appeal. In a demanding and competitive market, this really stood out with the help of one of Dublin’s leading illustrators, Philip Barrett. See full sample here.
“We used Diarmuid from O’Connell Copy and Philip from Blackshapes Design to come up with a direct marketing campaign that really stood out. They did a brilliant job and perfectly captured what we were trying to do.
We’re glad to recommend them for direct marketing projects.”
