Field Marketing can help you infiltrate students, spread brand awareness, generate leads, and engage students.
Lead Generation 🔥
Our Lead Generation Street Teams target high-traffic areas around campus, after all, our Campus Ambassadors are actual students and know their campus best.
Our teams utilize a QR Code to bring your message to students and gather their contact information for marketing reach-outs. We deliver these leads on a rolling basis so you can follow up with the contacts we’ve collected on campus while they’re hot. We typically offer promotional items and prizes as incentives for students to enter their information such as name, email, phone number, and year in school.
We recruit, hire, train, and manage the Campus Ambassadors executing these events. We deliver weekly recaps with time and geo-stamped photos and feedback from the team from the events they executed in the field.
Let us get boots-on-the-ground marketing for your brand today!
Street Teams 📢
Our Campus Ambassadors are real students who deliver your brand message to their peers on the campus they know best. Our Street Teams will target high-traffic areas to pass out your brand promo each week. The peer-to-peer engagement helps students relate to their brand and peak their interest to hear more from one of their fellow students.
We also offer Bar Promos where our Campus Ambassadors hand out promo outside the popular bars in town. This allows us to put your message in front of students in a relaxed, nightlife environment. Our ambassadors reach out to their peers at happy hour or late-night bars and clubs. This is great for brand awareness since the students end up wearing or using your item right then and there (chapstick, cups, sunglasses, koozies, etc.)

Dorm & Apartment Storms 🏘️
For more focused flyering, our Campus Ambassadors can execute a storm to get your flyers and promo in front of specific groups.
We currently offer:
Dorms Storms™ are when our Campus Ambassadors stealthily place flyers under each dorm room door. This is a great way to reach underclassmen who are trying to figure out where they will live next.
Apartments Storms utilize the same tactics but target specific apartment buildings which is a great way to target students who live at competitor buildings.
Greek Announcements 🏛️
Greek Life is a huge community to reach on campus. With our Greek Announcements, our team will present your messaging to Greeks during one of their gatherings and showcase your promotions. This is an excellent way to target the Greek life community. Creating a basket for each house is a nice touch!
Tabling 🎪
Engage students in an official presentation of your brand with Tabling events.
Our team will set up a more extensive promotional table in a stationary, high-traffic location on campus. We work with universities to ensure we’re following each campus’ regulations when it comes to tabling events as these typically vary from campus to campus and require a tabling fee.
Feel free to join our ambassadors as they share your message and offer promotions with games, showcase your brand by wearing your gear, and even gather contact information.
