Nasser for Michigan

One campaign message, written for several communities

Targeted ads and creative for a Michigan U.S. Senate campaign reaching several distinct communities.

The challenge

The campaign needed to reach several communities, each with its own message, without wasting money on any of them.

What we did

We built culturally specific creative for each community under one message, and ran targeted ads that told the candidate's story before asking for a gift.

The result

A fundraising program that brought many first-time political donors into the campaign.

How every gift is traced

Every ad and every text gets its own refcode on the donation link. When a gift comes in, it's matched to the exact ad or text that raised it, and recurring installments stay with the message that started them. Money we can't match is counted, never guessed.
