LONDON - Mercedes-Benz has created a new direct mail campaign in the form of a scrunched-up paper ball.
Mercedes...new DM campaign by Maher Bird
The new insert is targeted at garages and mechanics in the UK, encouraging them to use only Mercedes parts to repair customers' vehicles.
The insert arrives in foil, and can be straightened out, to reveal the strapline: "If your customer's Mercedes-Benz gets scrunched genuine parts can straighten it out perfectly?".
