Television

When Adaptive Campus approaches a marketing project, we have a template that we start with. Every project is unique, and so we use this template and adapt it to the current situation. You may find the template useful if you are developing an internal marketing arm, but keep in mind that this is just the starting point of the planning process. The model needs to be flexible to be effective. Is this designed to market one specific program, multiple programs, or an entire education program? Whatever the answers you have to those questions make a significant difference in how this plan is adjusted.
