From: French ConnectionSubject Line: Introducing the man
Date: Monday, February 15, 2010
I'm not sure if anyone else has seen the new French Connection campaign, "This is the Man" or "This is the Woman?" Well, I can't seem to get away from it. It's constantly interrupting my music compilations on Spotify with 10 second online ads. Had a catalogue delivered? I see it on the tube, when I walk past the local store and have been receiving weekly emails. These guys know what they are doing. I would strongly advise everyone to sign up. They not only look really cool, but they engage with the customer, constantly driving them to the site and making it interesting and relevant.
The use of a scruffy looking and ungroomed guy wearing really crisp modern clothes makes for some interesting black and white photography. By telling us the story of "This is the man," using an over the top French accent, French Connection has managed to deliver one of the most intriguing and coolest campaigns I have seen for quite some time. I almost don't want to say too much about it and let you decide for yourself.
Take a look on frenchconnection.com and sign up today.
