I had a copy of this from another school when I was creating a job description. It's more for new media, not exclusively social media, but it might help. I like how the audience focus is clearly spelled out. NEW MEDIA PRODUCER ...University is acce…

John Graham replied to Jeremy's discussion '.COM microsites for university marketing'

David Marshall replied to David Marshall's discussion 'Facebook Social Ads'
Thanks, Andrew. That's a good point.. my experience is the click rates are low on facebook.. creative thinking is a must. I should note that an ad does not have to be clicked for it to be effective. It can still convey a message.

Andrew Grohowski replied to David Marshall's discussion 'Facebook Social Ads'
I come from a PPC marketing background. We've been running an ad and I believe we're stuck in a bidding war, so our data is probably inaccurate. But, we aren't seeing good data. If anyone is thinking of advertising there, they need to think outside…

Edgar Riley replied to Heather Harpell's discussion 'Which CMS?'
We've recently helped a few schools (Ball State University, University of Alberta, Colorado Technical University, Sheridan College) move from legacy systems to Sitecore CMS. It's well designed and compatible with MS SQL. If you are considering a com…
