Branex opted for a social media strategy creation to attract and engage the target audience for Windsor University which was mainly students and alumni.

GROUNDWORK
As universities find the need to appeal to an ever-increasing and diverse student base, successful branding and marketing have become increasingly important activities for institutions. Universities must now go to greater lengths to differentiate themselves from competing institutions. Successful branding can help with increasing enrollment, expanding fundraising and other outcomes. Windsor University is also a prominent university in the Caribbean. Like many other credible education institutions, Windsor also had a heritage and a vast alumni network but did not have an online social presence where the alumnus could interact with each other.

The posts will be created keeping the young and energetic feel alive whilst at the same time maintaining the highest quality standards set by the university itself.
