Project Examples

In early January 2019, approximately 7-9 teams of 4 student-researchers will dedicate over 700 collective hours studying and analyzing your organization and your competitors' brands.

Based on their findings, groups will provide data-driven recommendations on opportunities and challenges to your brand, social media practices, etc. The teams will compete against one another to produce and present the 'best' digital marketing plan for your organization.

The students will conduct a full digital marketing plan, which will help you answer and identify the following:

  • What defines your organization's brand strategy, specifically within the digital world.
  • The core proposition of your social media plan and brand.
  • The current outlook of your brand and digital marketing practices.
  • Strategic and tactical recommendations necessary to grow your brand (SEO, PPC, analytics, social media, webinars, advertising, etc.).

These findings and recommendations will assist you with making strategic plans with your digital marketing initiative while preventing costly and ineffective marketing and sales decisions.

Companies must answer the following questions to submit a match request to this experience:

Provide a dedicated contact who is available to answer periodic emails or phone calls over the duration of the project to address students' questions.
