Abstract/Artist Statement

When examining the effect lifestyle experiences can have on buying behavior, we find that using narrative based communication elicits a more favorable response and encourages buying behavior. As marketers begin to look for new channels to communicate these narratives, the industry has seen a rise in bloggers as well as blog readers. This marketing plan serves to measure the importance of sustaining University of the Pacific’s lifestyle blog, People of Pacific as a valuable marketing tool for Enrollment Management. Beyond its application to University of the Pacific, this plan could also be applied to other higher education departments looking for new experiential marketing tactics. These strategies are to be effective for the 2017-2018 academic year by the Tiger Creative Team in order to increase both applicants and confirmations to University of the Pacific.
