With thousands of potential customers, marketing at college campus is a great opportunity for small and large businesses alike. Not only is the college market young and fresh, but it is also very social. Sharing some branded love with promotional products at a college campus is a fun and easy way to spread your brand and image across a single demographic. While there are many different methods of advertising to college students some methods work better than others. Here are our suggestions for marketing at a College Campus :
1. Use clothing as a promotional product
For a college student, nothing is better than receiving free t-shirts, hats, or hoodies. Apparel items with your company’s logo or slogan is a great way to utilize free advertising. Bonus points if it has a unique design or catchy slogan. The more your item is worn the more marketing your business is getting.
2. Incorporate Flyers/Posters
A good flyer or poster will never be ignored! Flyers and posters are a great affordable way to market events, new products, or sales. Print a lot and post them in all the common areas on campus to see an increase in engagement with your business.
3. Marketing with Facebook and Social Media
Social media on campus is a great marketing tool. Not only is your target audience the bulk of the social media users, but they are always within reach of their mobile device. Posting ads or keeping up to date on social media at college campuses is another easy marketing method.
