Millennium Library Capital CampaignAs an employee of Tangent Strategies, Inc., I helped conceive a marketing strategy for the Millennium Library Foundation. Consisting of a tabloid-theme, the successful campaign paired sensationalistic headlines with bright, intriguing imagery to capture the attention of the pop-culture generation and educate them on all that can be found in their local library branch while also soliciting donations in order to "fill the shelves" with more books. The campaign was so popular, people requested (and even put bids in) to keep the in-branch printed banners. Transit advertising, a brochure and direct-mail were also part of the project's scope (2007).
