• Connection between nature of blood and irreplaceable nature of blood<br />

donation<br />

Tone of the campaign: direct commands. One must underl<strong>in</strong>e that “Spende Blut” means<br />

“Give Blood” <strong>with</strong> <strong>in</strong>formal “you”.<br />

Target<strong>in</strong>g the donors’ social life: important to stress <strong>is</strong> the ability of to stick to the<br />

specific traits of German social and cultural life. <strong>The</strong> DRK deliberately targeted students<br />

<strong>in</strong> its campaign and selected a “Stammt<strong>is</strong>ch Picture” on one of its posters, to attract<br />

potential student donors. Note: <strong>The</strong> Stammt<strong>is</strong>ch <strong>is</strong> an old tradition <strong>in</strong> German<br />

universities: debates on a wide range of subjects (literary, philosophical, or political).<br />

<strong>The</strong> slogan <strong>is</strong> “You will f<strong>in</strong>d philosophers everywhere. Not Blood. Donate Blood!”<br />
