Cornell University Computer Science

Promote the Computer Science 50th Anniversary, dedication of a new building, and symposium?

With only two months lead time?

Impossible?

With only two months lead time?

Well almost.

That was the assignment and some of the challenges we faced but we also recognized that it was an opportunity to work with an outstanding university and an exciting program which included having Bill Gates at the dedication of the Bill and Melinda Gates Hall.

In that two-month period we developed a marketing communications and publicity plan with the following objectives:

Generate media coverage of the Gates Hall dedication and of the CS department’s 50th anniversary
Develop a social media program that included Facebook and Twitter (though the CS Department had no “friends” or “followers”)
Position CIS and its departments, of which Computer Science is one, to all those who come in contact with us during this time period and beyond including donors, alumni, faculty, and students

The Results

A fantastic three days were filled with media, alumni, donors, and Mr. Gates!
We created a Facebook events page on the Cornell Engineering Science page. We posted several times weekly prior to the event, created photo albums, and generated excitement during the 3-day Anniversary Celebration.

Over 17,000 impressions were made on Facebook and over 100 were posted on the page.
On Twitter, we live Tweeted from the Anniversary Celebration through to the day and half long Symposium. We started with a handful of followers and now have over 100.

Our public relations results included over 70 media outlets promoted the dedication and 50th Anniversary of Computer Science
We created a pocket program guide, walking tour brochure, emails, and a 50-year timeline of CS milestones.

Why my mother and many leaders are confused about healthcare marketing.

As a healthcare marketing consultant (or CMO for hire), I’m asked the same questions about marketing consistently and it’s clear that there are many misconceptions about my profession. From CEO’s to my mother, there is truly a fundamental lack of understanding of what marketing is and can accomplish. So, I began asking clients and colleagues in this space why this might be.

Geneva Community Health

Based on our research we recommended, and FLCH agreed, that we would market each location by their health center names — Geneva Community Health, Port Byron Community Health. There was also confusion in the market place as to our affiliation with the hospital system — Finger Lakes Health. We are not affiliated.

Lakeside Healthcare Systems

Lakeside, located in Brockport, NY, is a small community hospital with 100+ beds. They had recently hired a new CEO and physicians that changed the face of the health system. They soon realized that public perception and the reality of what they had to offer was distinctly different. That’s when The Marketing Collaborative stepped in and took those assets and made them visible to the outside world.
