STATEWIDE DATA COLLECTION

'17 - PRESENT

/OVERVIEW

The goal was to establish branding for counties utilizing Merit Network's services and create various marketing materials (such as advertisements, presentations, emails, and mailing materials) to use as templates across the counties. These were then used to gather enough data to be within a margin of error of 5% or less.

STATEWIDE DATA COLLECTION

/DIRECTION & DESIGN

Data Collection Campaign.

I collaborated with Merit's Michigan Moonshot department to design a standardized template for a statewide data collection campaign. This included designing various digital and print materials, from postcards to email campaigns. Typography was chosen to be neutral so that it could be used for multiple counties and colors are drawn from the specific county's branding.

Print Campaign

The print campaign was designed to reach a wide audience in counties across Michigan and educate them about the importance of reliable internet access.

Key Deliverables:
Billboards
Postcards
Flyers
Yard Signs
Bus Advertisements
Local Newsprint/Magazine Ads
