Parlor Doughnuts ad campaign
Students in MSCH-A305 created an advertising campaign using social media, TV, radio/audio, display advertising and a landing page.
Claire Karberg developed a campaign for Parlor Doughnuts, based on a lifestyle strategy and this single most compelling message: When you want to be transported to a destination, you eat a Parlor Doughnut.
