VIP Strategy Day for Higher Ed Marketing Leaders

One Day. Full Alignment.

A high-impact consulting experience for university marketing teams ready to streamline project workflows, reduce inefficiencies, and better support institutional goals.

Is your team constantly busy—but still behind?

You’re producing high volumes of content across departments. Your team juggles requests from admissions, advancement, athletics, and leadership. The work never stops—but clarity is hard to come by.

Sound familiar?

✅ Projects get held up in intake or approvals
✅ Cross-functional teams operate in silos
✅ You’re over-reliant on email and spreadsheets to manage complex campaigns
✅ There’s no shared roadmap for prioritizing, planning, and executing work

You don’t need more task lists or meetings.

You need an operational strategy that fits how your university team actually works.

That’s what a VIP Strategy Day delivers.

What is a VIP Strategy Day?

A focused, one-day consulting intensive designed specifically for higher ed marketing and communications teams. You’ll walk away with:

A clearer picture of where your current operations are breaking down
Scalable, realistic workflow systems that meet the needs of internal stakeholders
A step-by-step plan for smoother collaboration, better project visibility, and more confident execution

Whether you lead a centralized marketing team or a hybrid structure across schools and units, this session is built to help you work smarter, not harder.

What We’'ll Cover

Every VIP Day is tailored—but here’s what we often focus on with higher ed teams:

- Clarifying request intake processes across departments
- Improving project prioritization frameworks
- Defining clear project phases and responsibilities
- Recommending project management tool structures (e.g., Hive)
- Aligning marketing operations with university-wide goals

What You'’ll Walk Away With

Implementation Roadmap with concrete next steps
