Project
Description: 760
Media was hired as Cal State San Marcos’ first
official advertising agency. In order to increase enrolment at
the university, we took a strategic approach using a multimedia
advertising "Blitz" campaign. "Value
your Future" and "Cal State
San Marcos, My Choice" were creative slogans
that were developed by 760 media’s team and adopted by the university. We launched
the advertising and marketing campaign which consisted of print,
online banner and out-door ad’s placed on buses in North
County. "Club Cards" were also developed for
the younger audience.
Result:
For
the first time in the universities history, enrollment closed early
due to the heavy volume of applications being received. The universities
enrollment increased a total of 17% since signing on with 760 Media.
