Integrated Marketing Communications
We are a creative and diverse group of artists, storytellers, wordsmiths, designers and strategists dedicated to preserving and increasing the visibility of the 麻豆精品 brand. Our projects are more than just marketing – we strive every day to define and convey what makes SHSU a great name in education.

Working Together
Below are a few tips for working with us that will ensure a successful collaboration:
- Involve us early. Like most departments, we are typically managing numerous projects and deadlines all at once and need sufficient time to provide value-added assistance. As a general rule, a brochure takes four weeks from concept to completion, a direct mail piece takes three weeks and a press release takes two weeks.
- Strategize in advance. If possible, come to us with a clear idea of why you are doing this, what you need, how you want to communicate it and to whom. Of course, if you require help strategizing in advance, we will assist you with creating a plan.
- Be timely. Time is of the essence. When it comes to media inquiries, an unreturned phone call typically translates to a missed placement opportunity. When it comes to project management, honest feedback is essential throughout the project stages to ensure deadlines are met.
- Be specific. The more clearly you articulate the objectives, the more successful your project will be. And, don’t be afraid to ask us for guidance; our team has years of experience in a variety of areas!
