off-campus marketing

South Beach has generated a reputation among college students as an exciting Spring Break destination which combines beach, nightlife, shopping and beautiful people.  With the state of the current U.S. and global economy and the conflicts in Mexico, a higher percentage of college students surveyed say they are choosing to spend this year’s Spring Break in South Beach, Miami.  Students are taking advantage of the reduced airfare to Miami and Ft. Lauderdale and reasonable lodging expenses in South Beach and Miami Beach.  Although the city of Miami does not disclose the number of college students visiting the city during Spring Break, preliminary indications suggest that South Beach’s popularity among Spring Breakers is on the rise.  Campus Solutions is offering brands and agencies a final opportunity to reach the college consumer while on Spring Break during March ’09.

Campus Solutions, Inc. offers a number of interactive marketing opportunities for companies to reach college students on Spring Break in South Beach.  Last Spring Break, our street teams distributed tens of thousands of product samples to college students on the beaches of South Beach during the day and provided bar media promotions at the most popular nightclubs in South Beach.  This year’s Spring Break, Campus Solutions will be teaming up with brands to provide free Internet to students, allowing students to get out of the sun, check their flights, their funds and their email.

Especially during economic uncertainties, it is important to remember the value of the college consumer.  Recent surveys suggest that college students continue to spend their discretionary income this season on gifts and retail.  Whether your company is interested in targeting students on or off campus, Campus Solutions, Inc. provides a number of unique spring semester marketing initiatives for companies interested in marketing to college students.

One unique trend in higher education is the increase of midyear enrollment.  Although the fall semester continues to be the first semester for most students, many schools are receiving too many qualified applicants to accept each student.  And students are choosing midyear enrollment and delaying their education to be accepted to their first choice.  For a sampling endeavor, the spring semester allows for companies to experiment with a campus sampling program by targeting incoming freshmen during the spring semester.

This year, Panama City Beach, FL, South Padre Island and other U.S. destinations are expecting to receive additional spring breakers as more students plan on staying in the country this spring break.  Campus Solutions, Inc. provides ultimate branding opportunities for companies to reach hundreds of thousands of college students during spring break.
