Web 2.0-focused web site redesign
Goal:

Carnegie Mellon online and increase brand awareness
among students and alumni.
Thursday, October 28, 2010
51. Tactics:
The university intended to highlight its professors, alumni,
students, and curriculum by launching a series of online
videos. it also hoped to connect on a deeper and viral level
with its 70,000 + alumni to help build the university’s
presence and outreach, offline and online.
“We recognized that we needed to engage with our intended
audience on their terms,” said Marilyn Kail, assistant VP
for marketing communications. “Prospective students are
cynical about typical hard-sell marketing. They trust their
peers. They appreciate entertainment. This is why social
media marketing worked so well.”
