SUNY Plattsburgh Works With Conversation to Launch Fall 2012 Campaign
College taps agency to handle online marketing for second straight year.
NEW YORK, Oct. 25, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- After an award-winning 2011-2012 campaign that saw an increase in applications, SUNY Plattsburgh is once again working with New York-headquartered marketing agency Conversation for the 2012-2013 school year. The main goal of the campaign involves attracting a larger number of applications from high-quality students who are well matched to the school.
"Similar to the campaign last year, we are focusing heavily on the personal interests and identity of students," said Kristen Link, Director of Client Services at Conversation. "Based on our research, there is a better response to messaging when the concept of college experience is presented alongside academics."
In addition to the SEM tactics, online ads and rich media displays, new emphasis has been put on the inclusion of online streaming radio. After conducting comprehensive research into the shifting media consumption habits of SUNY Plattsburgh's target audiences, Conversation has also altered its primary focus to the New York State Capital Region and North Country, while still ensuring that The Hudson Valley Region and Long Island are addressed. Conversation's strategic goal is to engage with these users in channels where they would be most receptive to SUNY Plattsburgh's message, therefore impacting the campaign's results. While each feature of the campaign is able to stand on its own, the content is also geared so that each aspect builds upon the others.
"After a highly successful campaign last year, this year's work is generating awareness about SUNY Plattsburgh's unique qualities and offerings on an even greater level," said Conversation Founder Frank O'Brien. "The new and improved aspects of the campaign are allowing for better behavioral and contextual targeting, as well as the ability to engage users more immediately."
