Oftentimes, institutions can fall prey to thinking that they are “done” with rebranding once fonts and logos have been picked and the new website has launched. But today, a brand should be treated as if it is a living, breathing organism…it is constantly either growing or shrinking in value, in recognition, in purpose.In Episode 4 of the How to Market a University Podcast series, Terry advises what an institution should do once it has completed the market research and it knows who it is, understands what its unique value offer is, and understands who its unique value offer is for. She unpacks who should be included in the development of the brand strategy and offers specific ideas for how to build a successful rubric for an institution’s brand platform.
