How to Submit a Request for Marketing & Communications Services

 

The steps below illustrate the process by which requests for Marketing & Communications (MarCom) projects are processed and prioritized. To ensure that your project receives budget and scheduling priority, we encourage you to submit project requests as part of your department's planned marketing initiatives.

 

To get started, submit a project request (Step 1, below). A member of the MarCom team will be assigned to your project request. To learn more, read the Guide to Marketing & Communications Services.

 
 

 

Step 1 – Submit Project Request

Fill out the Marketing & Communications Services Project Request form completely. Please note that this is a request. Project acceptance will be determined by alignment with campus strategic goals, budget considerations, and communications standards.

 

 

Step 2 – Project Consultation Meeting

A member of the MarCom team will contact you to discuss the project further to help identify the optimal solutions or options for your communications needs. After the initial project consultation, a production schedule and project budget will be researched and developed.

 

Step 3 – Project Initiation/Production Schedule

Within approximately 3-4 business days, a member of the MarCom team will indicate whether the project is a “go” or “no go” and will explain the rationale for that decision (based on requested timeframe, other project priorities, etc). If the project is a go, the production schedule and project budget will be reviewed and approved by the requestor before proceeding.

 

 

Step 4 – Design/Proof

If project proceeds, MarCom will provide a design concept and proofs. To ensure timely completion of the project, you will need to provide feedback and approval on the proofs in accordance with the previously agreed-upon production schedule.
