Communications and Marketing typically utilizes a Branding or Marketing Campaign to execute deliverables. If your product or service lacks identity and familiarity, we will first start to develop its brand. The brand gives your product or service an identity and will help it stand out and become recognizable. Once the brand is established, your marketing campaign begins. The campaign will be directed to your specific audience. The campaign brings your brand to your audience. Your marketing campaign may use many vehicles:
- Social Media
- Emails
- Videos
- University Websites
- Print brochures
- Advertising
- Newsletter articles
Marketing Campaigns Metrics must be analyzed to measure the success of a campaign. Tools include Google Analytics, as well as the Meta Business Suite.
