Florida Coastal Adds Twitter to Communications Strategy
April 1, 2009
On the heels of the March BROADcast reporting on the use of Twitter for business, Florida Coastal School of Law has launched its own official Twitter micro-blog. “We are using it as a means to reach prospective and current students, as well as our 2,000+ alumni living across the country,” says Brooks Terry, Marketing Director. “It’s our goal to update it at least daily with items including upcoming special events and recruitment opportunities, school successes and milestones, and even faculty publications and items in the news.”
Twitter’s growth chart continues to look incredible, says the Silicon Alley Insider. The blog reports that the messaging/microblogging service attracted 9.3 million U.S. unique visitors to its site in March, up 131% over February, according to comScore. That’s more than five million new visitors than the site had in February.
The Coastal Law Office of Institutional Advancement, which houses the school’s alumni affairs and marketing staff, will administer the page. BroadBased worked with the marketing department to integrate branding.
