Advertising

All advertisements placed in local, state, and national media representing 麻豆传媒映画 and/or its departments, programs and organizations must be approved by the Marketing & Communications Department.

Advertising on behalf of 麻豆传媒映画 and/or its departments, programs and organizations without proper approval is strictly prohibited. The Marketing & Communications Department handles all writing, design and placement of advertisements. Exceptions to this policy can only be authorized by an appropriate representative of the Marketing & Communications Department.

Prior to deciding that advertising is the best route for your communications needs, please contact the Marketing & Communications Department. Marketing staff can help you decide if advertising is the right choice, consult with you on messaging and ensure you follow our brand standards. Marketing staff can also provide valuable assistance in understanding rate schedules and determining ideal 鈥渞each and frequency鈥� to meet your needs within your budget.

麻豆传媒映画 coordinates advertising efforts based on strategic timing, messaging, impact and budget. The uncoordinated purchasing of advertising by individual units from the same media outlets results in higher costs for the institution. Collaborating on advertising purchases and negotiating a single purchase on behalf of the institution or with the 麻豆传媒映画 System lowers our costs. Please contact Marketing & Communications to coordinate your efforts across the institution.

All advertising requires the use of the 麻豆传媒映画 wordmark, which must be in a prominent location and with the proper free space around it. All advertising designs must be approved by the Marketing & Communications Department prior to purchase. Exceptions to this policy must be approved by Marketing & Communications.
