Marketing and Communication Requests

We can provide strategic consulting and execution support for a range of communication initiatives and advertising campaigns. We also act as a liaison between FEAS and University Relations, which is TMU’s internal creative, media, and brand team.

Marketing requests

Marketing is typically used to drive external audiences (audiences outside of TMU/FEAS) to take an action, or to generate awareness for a program or service. Examples of marketing activities include:

  • Paid media and paid search advertising 
  • Event exhibits and collateral 
  • Outreach to new/cold prospects 
  • Promotional materials, presentations, and collateral 
  • Email marketing 

To discuss your marketing request, email Janet Joakim (janet.joakim@torontomu.ca).

Communication requests

Communications are typically used to drive internal audiences (those within the TMU/FEAS community) to take action or to generate awareness for faculty achievements and faculty-hosted events. Examples of communication activities include: 

  • Promoting an event, funding opportunity or program (using email, social media, Toronto Met Today, and other channels) 
  • Dean’s communications (e.g. opening remarks, letters, social posts, etc.) 
  • Strategic assessment and writing support for internal communications (e.g. letters, newsletters, emails, webpage copy, etc.) 
  • Developing an article or press release

To discuss your communication request, email Spencer Henderson (spencer.henderson@torontomu.ca). 

Have an integrated request? Not sure how to classify your project?  Email Janet (janet.joakim@torontomu.ca) and Spencer (spencer.henderson@torontomu.ca) who can point you in the right direction!

Social media requests

Our social media channels are dedicated to amplifying your initiatives and stories. We currently manage four FEAS-dedicated channels: LinkedIn (external link) , Instagram (external link) , YouTube (external link) , and Threads (external link) 

We can help:

  • Promote an upcoming event
  • Showcase a new achievement 
  • Share an important student or faculty story 
  • Plan a social media takeover or Ask-Me-Anything sessions
  • Reshare your social post to the FEAS network 
  • Capture video and image content

For social media-related requests, contact Spencer (spencer.henderson@torontomu.ca) and Jada (jstevensonladouceur@torontomu.ca).
