Tips for your team

  1. Use the magazine to illustrate the school’s key marketing messages. Powerful storytelling helps position your school in a crowded market.
  2. Explicitly ask magazine readers to spread the word about your institution’s achievements — and provide the facts for them to do so.
  3. Flip the structure — features at front, bits at the back — to emphasize big-picture thinking.
