Marketing & Publication

wave gradient

This page contains a few resources and ideas for the different types of marketing and publicity available to your organization.  However, before you begin your marketing and publicity, please review the associated policies and location regulations.

What should I put on my flyers, posters, etc?

On your flyers, banners, posters, etc. always include:

  • Organization name
  • Event title (program, workshop, social, etc.)
  • Event date, time, and location
  • Co-sponsoring organizations

If posting on campus, include the post until date (e.g., on the flyer in the lower left corner indicate “post until 3/18”). The best rule is to use the day after your event or program.
