Team feedback
Working with this group this semester was a fantastic experience! I learned a lot from them, and I hope they were able to take away some valuable insights as well. I really appreciated their adaptability and flexibility throughout the project. When we decided to shift the direction of the project midway through the semester, they adjusted quickly and seamlessly. In hindsight, stronger communication from both sides at the beginning might have helped clarify expectations earlier on and possibly prevented the need for such a significant pivot. I was especially impressed by their multi-channel approach to marketing the newsletter. Not only did they experiment with different strategies, but they also took the time to evaluate what worked and what didn’t. These insights will be incredibly helpful for our team moving forward. Their efforts to connect with students directly through campus canvassing were particularly commendable. Canvassing is not always the easiest or most comfortable task, but they approached it with enthusiasm and confidence. One thing I wish we had been able to incorporate more of was a design element. However, pivoting the project objectives midway through did not allow time for this. Overall, they did a great job!

MacEwan Sustainability Awareness Campaign

MacEwan University Sustainability hopes to enhance student engagement and awareness regarding sustainable practices and initiatives on campus. The goal is to develop and implement a targeted marketing plan that effectively communicates the importance of a specific sustainability topic or initiative, encouraging positive behavioral change among students. MacEwan Sustainability will be able to provide a budget for the campaign, with details to be determined based on the scope of the campaign. This campaign will build off survey data collected in Fall 2024 by the MARK 312 Marketing Research and Analysis class which will help the consultants to understand current student perceptions and behaviors related to sustainability. By analyzing the survey data alongside MacEwan Sustainability staff, the team will identify key areas where awareness is lacking and tailor messages to address one or more of these gaps. This project provides an opportunity for students to apply marketing principles learned in the classroom to a real-world scenario, focusing on sustainability communication strategies. The outcome will be a comprehensive marketing plan that can be implemented to foster a more sustainable campus culture.
