IFSA Butler

One of the greatest things about traveling abroad are the stories you bring home. By sharing these stories, IFSA Butler connected with students and opened their minds to studying abroad.

CHALLENGE

Institute for Study Abroad at Butler University found itself in a crowded market of study abroad programs and was concerned that its story was not connecting with prospective students. MediaSauce was asked to create and execute a strategy for telling a compelling story and promoting enrollment.

ASSESSMENT

To stand out in a crowd of study abroad programs, MediaSauce recommended researching IFSA-Butler's core audiences to isolate key factors that would attract visitors to the site. It was determined that a travel-focused site should be visually engaging and include user-generated content that is informative and familiar to visitors.

STRATEGY

By implementing simple navigation coupled with some entertaining animation, MediaSauce was able to create a compelling overview of IFSA-Butler's unique student-services process for their audience. Implementing a blog and social network also made an impact by allowing real students to share their stories, videos and photos of collegiate life abroad.
