As a marketing professional it is critical to know how to reach potential students and what type of media they prefer.
What television stations do they watch, or are they watching at all?
Do they prefer to receive the college schedule in hand or online?
Interact is launching its third National Media Preference survey in September 2008 !
For $3,500 your college can participate in a media preference and lifestyle survey of your students. Or, if you choose to participate over three years, Interact will survey your students annually and provide you the results for just $3,000 per year.

You will receive a summary of your college's media preferences on CD to help plan your marketing for the next enrollment push. In February you will receive a summary of the National Media Preference Report on CD.
