Step 3: Event Publicity/Printed Materials
Plan your event promotion in digital and printed formats.
- Determine how you want to market the event (ex. flyers, email, social media posts).
- Request event promo (website calendars, student and employee e-newsletters, and social media)
- Complete the Marketing & Website Support Request Form (Note: Please complete the form at least two weeks prior to the event to allow enough time for promotion. Earlier is always better!) For questions, contact the Public Information Services Office, flc-pio@flc.losrios.edu.
- Create printed/digital materials (Note: Graphic Design Services can also be requested when completing the Marketing & Website Support Request Form. Please allow at least two full weeks for project design and completion, not including printing time. Earlier is always better!)
- Social media, newsletter, and web graphics
- Save the date
- Flyers/Posters
- Invitations (RSVP needed?)
- Programs
- Name badges
- Reserved signs
- Panelist tent cards
- Directional signs
- Handouts
- Have materials printed
- Complete Print Services Request Form. (Note: Please allow one week for completion. Earlier is always better!) For questions, contact the Printing Department, flc-printing@flc.losrios.edu, (916) 608-6650.
- Advertise event
- Put up flyers and posters around three campus sites (Note: Post only on designated posting boards. Do not post on windows, doors, or walls.)
- If you submitted the Marketing & Website Support Request Form earlier in this checklist, the Public Information Office will handle promotion via the websites, student and employee newsletters, and social media, as appropriate. For questions, contact PISO, flc-pio@flc.losrios.edu.
- Determine who will be photographer for the event (Note: We do not have an in-house photographer. Professional photography will have to be paid for by the requesting department/area.)
- If photos will be shared on social media or in other materials, please post signage at event entrances notifying participants that photos are being taken (signage available from PISO, flc-piso@flc.losrios.edu).
