November 15, 2023 - Critical Reflection #20 Attachment to U of O: Following from your Thought Exercises on U of O Attachment, please create a short ‘pitch’ to the University’s Chief Marketing Officer on what you think is the ideal Mixed Media approach to creating greater attachment of students to this university. Show how the different communication functions mix and overlap considerably. The PESO model & Mixed Media Approach As a public relations officer, the mixed media approach that constitutes 4 branches: owned, shared, owed and paid media. The campaign must equally balance all 4 branches to effectively share and alter the behaviour of the target audience. This relates to the preference and ideal outcomes of two-way communications and relationships; depending on the client’s (the university) budget and ready-able resources for the campaign, both controlled and uncontrolled media can be used to promote, gain attention, increase ‘earned’ publicity and post contents that are helpful to both the client and the student-oriented audience. Whether it be the late adopters or gatekeepers of the mixed media approach it is important to include limitations and improvements that are needed within the campaign framework to decrease the number of these populations or provide the necessary preparations to accommodate them. Implementing and connecting the client with fellow industry partners, popular ‘trusted’ tech media companies and external publics (employees, investor, B2B and consumer/student relations) will allow future growth and development for the campaign. Another aspect of the campaign when using the mixed media approach is the awareness and inclusion of ethical decision-making in terms of the loyalty and diversity of which the promotions are made and for diverse student body it is aimed for. Mixed Media Approach (Chosen) Both uncontrolled & controlled media The use of both increases the range of methods of exposure, able to adapt to diverse forms of promotion (allows for a greater rate of students exposed to the campaign) Shared Media The combo of influencer engagement on both controlled and uncut rolled media allows social media to easily promote and expose the campaign to the students who are heavily reliant on social media to get answers or share relatable content that greatly resonates with them as ‘individuals’. Earned Media Earned media and shared media go hand in hand in terms of influencer engagement and partnerships that allow students to adopt the behaviour of coming to campus. This relates to ‘response to detractors, detractors turned loyalists, and turned to advocates .’ The Pitch via RACE Model Research Research on which social media’s students are most often using. Action Planning Use this platform and perform connections with influencers to promote. Communication Allow incentives for current students to become influencers to share their on-campus experiences. Evaluation The client will have its official account to verify and monitor the interactions and posted content (its hashtags, shared content or tagged posts)
