Psa Poster Copy
Subject: PSA Poster for web & print
Characteristics:
• Portrait, scalable
• Promoting secular interests and acceptance • Edgy image
• Headline and 100-150 words of copy
Strategic Problem: With the recent resurgance of near puritanism in the United States, the Canadian Secular Alliance has been losing members due to fear of persecution. With the decline of membership, the Alliance has been struggling to remove “advancement of religion” as a grounds for charity status. The charity status allows religious groups to avoid taxes and impacts the Canadian budget over 1 billion dollars annually. By the goverment controlling the flow of assistance through taxes recieved from religious groups, social services will be distributed equally and not just to the religious.
Target Market:
• Left leaning, scientific minded
• Young - Middle aged (18-45)
• Mid to high income bracket
• Progressive
• Religous moderates, agnostics or atheists
Benefit or Appeal: Removing the charity status benefits both sides. With the money that will go back into the budget from the taxes, more can be done for the community.
Creative Theme: The poster will display very attention demanding images.

Re: Secular Alliance

Annie and her husband have recently purchased a house and have begun considering taxes in their every day life more. Annie is an Atheist and her husband is an apathetic agnostic. They have a small group of friends who they regularly visit for dinner. Their typical dinner conversation is light and rarely veers towards politics or taxes, but has increasingly involved religion, and their distaste for it. They do not consider themselves to be activists but would like to become more involved now that they have a child.
