OVERVIEW

Introduction

University of Baltimore and Towson University began jointly offering the UB/Towson MBA degree program

in 2006. Prospect volume has trended upward since; however applications and enrollments have been in

decline since at least 2009.

While the decline in applications and enrollments can be attributed to many factors, this request for

proposal seeks to address marketing-centric factors, specifically branding, creative, media strategy and web

presence.

RFP recipients are asked to participate in a preliminary review meeting with the program team

within one week of receiving this document. In addition, RFP Recipients are asked to respond

within four weeks with an in-person presentation to the program team at a mutually convenient

date, time and location. Extensive data is summarized and attached to provide a strategic

foundation for presentation preparation.

An open and ongoing dialog throughout the four-week preparation process is encouraged, and the

point of contact for all questions is listed below.

A decision will be rendered by the program team within two weeks of the final presentation.

Point of Contact

Branding

Issue: The program’s current designation as “UB/Towson MBA” (or any variant incarnations) is bland and uninspired. Alumni who participated in MBA redesign focus groups related issues with placing it on their resumes including out-of-state employers asking “What is the ub tow son MBA?”

Visually, the juxtaposition of our two university logos next to the name is awkward and needs to be treated in such a way as to double the program’s effectiveness and enhance its brand equity.

Objective: A standalone identity (name and mark) for the program with caché and gravitas that combines both University names and strongly references the program’s contemporary nature and dual Baltimore locations. For example:

The Baltimore MBA University of Baltimore / Towson University

Requested: 1–3 program names and accompanying marks, at least one of which should be a combination of UB’s “sliced quad” and TU’s “banners”

Creative

Issue: Historically, messaging and visuals have been driven by short-term goals (increasing enrollment in the next 1–2 terms) and thus have lacked continuity. Messaging, tone, and visuals were produced with little audience insight from the universities.

Objective: Develop a multi-year evolutionary campaign that communicates the program’s most prominent strengths and differentiators using language and imagery that is customized to our audience(s) as defined in the accompanying overview and detailed analysis.

Requested: 1-3 campaign concepts with accompanying radio script, print advertisement and banner advertisement samples

Media

Issue: Historically, media strategy has been driven by short-term (upcoming 1-2 terms) goals and as such has lacked continuity and university-provided target audience insight. Past media plans may be referenced on pages XXX-XXX.

Objective: Develop an annual media strategy that is customized to our audience(s) as detailed in the Data Summary below. Provide detailed ROI reporting including recommendations for optimization, experimentation and new opportunities, on a monthly basis with the option to review formally via conference call or meeting.

Requested: Media strategy and schedule for the remainder of this fiscal year ($94,000) and the upcoming fiscal year ($130,000)

Web Presence

Issue: The web site has not been refreshed for two years.

Objective: Develop a new web site that is customized to our audience(s) as detailed in the Data Summary below and representative of the branding and creative outlined above.

Requested: 1–3 home page treatments, an outline of your web (re)design process, and relevant examples of finished products

REFERENCE INFORMATION

Online & On-Campus

Students can complete the entire degree online, but only with a general specialization because not all specialization

elective courses are offered online.

Students may take all fundamental and core courses at either university. However, these courses switch between

semesters. For example, UB will offer MGMT 600 in the fall and Towson will offer it in the spring. A student could

conceivably take all the core and fundamental courses on one campus.

An elective course is usually offered at the campus that has a teaching proficiency in it. It is doubtful a student could

finish their elective at one on-campus location.

More brand equity than UMUC, Frostburg and Mt. Saint Mary’s

WEAKNESSES THREATS

Inconsistent marketing Contracting enrollment funnel
