Other Marketing Links and Tools
Effective marketing involves the development of marketing strategies and marketing materials that appeal to your target audience and effectively communicate what your event entails.
Words to communicate the topic or focus of the event, along with the logistical details are important and should cover registration, parking, time of the event, dress code, and other items. Equally important can be visuals to further communicate with your audience.
When developing marketing materials, stay attentive to university branding guidelines and laws which may apply – such as U.S. Copyright Law and the Americans With Disabilities Act.
These links can help you consider relevant polices and laws. They also offer examples of the types of marketing materials you may wish to consider.
