Branding & Marketing for Credit Unions
Media Planning
Show Notes

We want to talk about media. You don’t have to be on every media platform out there to get your message in front of your audience. 

You do, however, need a media plan – so you can be ready and flexible in times of change. Plus, we don’t want you to feel like you’re just winging it or making it up from scratch, every time you have a new campaign. And we don’t want you to dilute your message (or your budget) on any deal or bright new shiny media “opportunity” that comes your way! 

So we’re going to share our media philosophies and advice to help you shape up your media plan and feel more confident about what you’re spending and putting out there.
