The Georgetown, TX-based liberal-arts school, which was founded in 1840 and is the oldest institution of higher learning in the Lone Star State, is seeking an agency that can develop and execute a five-year plan to raise brand awareness and national visibility of the University, as well as strengthen its competitive position and provide ongoing reputation-management counsel.
Scope of the work includes identifying gaps in the University’s brand awareness; proposing opportunities to raise Southwestern’s visibility as an institutional brand among national media, higher-education trade media and other key influencers; devising ideas to leverage the expertise of Southwestern’s president, faculty and key staff through targeted media relations, opinion editorial placements and speaking opportunities; and developing digital strategies for use on the University’s website and social media platforms.
Proposals are due by 5 p.m. (CST) on Monday, August 9 and should be emailed to chief marketing and communications officer Scarlett J. Moss, at [email protected].
Questions should be directed to strategic marketing manager Dinah Ritchie, at [email protected].
