This Direct Mail campaign was on the back of Winston Churchill being recently voted 'the greatest Britain'. HTW our external agency supplied the creative. The inhouse design team created the artwork. I selected the DM specialist from our roster of DM suppliers and managed the production. The Letter in the tube not only looked like a cigar with the M&G sticker holding it in a circular shape but I purchased a 'cigar' scent from a laboratory to add to the effect. The cigar tubes were sourced and bought from a supplier in Italy. The printing, lasering, sticking, finishing, adding the cigar scent and mailing was done by Lettershop in Leeds. The mailing went out on time and received a very good response.
