LUNGFISH REPLACED A TRADITIONAL "OPM" AGENCY AND PROPOSED A RADICALLY DIFFERENT APPROACH to reinvigorate Wentworth's marketing and recruitment efforts:
1. STRATEGY/DISCOVERY: Comprehensive review of business goals and marketing dimensions with all campus stakeholders, identifying key differentiation, and communications priorities.
2. DIGITAL ADVERTISING: Combination of paid search, display, and video blanketing the region to build broad awareness of the benefits, and introducing a key CTA for cost savings, driving to landing pages hosted within the main campus ecosystem.
