DIRECT MAIL AND EMAIL OUTREACH

AGENCY: PIVOT FORWARD

CREATIVE DIRECTOR: LIZ SCHWARTZ
COPY: ROSS FREEDMAN

Marketing Agency PIVOT was looking for a unique way to reach out to perspective clients in the National and State Park system. Rather than send a run-of-the mill capabilities  deck, they wanted to display their marketing expertise through customized mailers and emails that spoke to the great outdoors. 

I created a series of rough rustic illustrations showing an adventurer in different types of terrain depending on individual Park that PIVOT was trying to reach. I added fun retro style outdoors icons representing different capabilities, as well as a topographic texture to wrap it all up. This unique marketing package displayed PIVOT as a trail guide to help outfit these parks with the marketing gear they need!

A FEW THINGS 


ABOUT ME


FATHER OF TWO • AQUARIUS • ASPIRING WIZARD


Hi, I'm Ryan. My passion is developing top-rail artwork and design for trail blazers and scoundrels.I get true satisfaction by helping those with a unique vision refine their voice through hand-crafted designs and illustration.

I’ve been utilizing my fine art background and 12 years of marketing agency experience to make lots of cool stuff for adventurous folks. Stuff like beautiful book layouts, key illustrations, expressive brand identity, and eye-catching packaging and merch designs.

I’ve worked with folk musicians, tabletop game designers, chefs, bakers, campers, glampers, nerds, explorers, spicy creators, whisky drinkers, antique dealers and dog walkers. No matter the industry, I love to partner with creative spirits looking for impactful hand-touched elements to breathe life into their project. Let’s work together! outridercreative@gmail.com
