Strategic Design and Marketing Approach
I undertook extensive UX research to determine the most user-friendly format for the guide, which informed the shift to a folded leaflet. This format ensured portability and ease of use, with a clear and concise map layout for campground locations. The design process involved close collaboration with a team of designers and a copywriter, leading to a harmonious blend of graphic design and copywriting that emphasized the directory's ease of use and connectivity to the website.

The marketing strategy was twofold: distribute the physical directory across rest areas in Indiana and the Chicago area, and promote the digital directory through a strategic social media campaign. The design elements of the leaflet were reflected on the website to provide a consistent user experience, leveraging the same color schemes, typography, and iconography.
Contributions and Leadership
I directed the project's information design and marketing strategy, managed the graphic design team, and ensured strategic alignment across all aspects of the campaign.
Outcomes and Achievements
The result was a successful directory distribution, a 25% boost in web traffic, and a 60% cut in printing costs, demonstrating effective print-digital integration.
