Marc Léger: A Campaign Brand That Won Ward 2

Marc Léger was elected to Moncton City Council, Ward 2, with a campaign identity rooted in the city's hand-painted sign heritage.

The Challenge

Marc had a clear platform and a neighbourhood he knew well.

He didn't want a campaign that looked like every other municipal election.

What the Client Says

Marc Léger

“Jon took the creative direction for my campaign materials from an idea to a brand people recognized on every street in Ward 2. He handled the identity, the signs, the brochures, the website and social graphics so I could focus on knocking on doors. I couldn't have asked for a better creative partner on the road to council.”
