Marketing Department

The Office of Marketing is a full-service marketing and communications agency that partners with the University’s academic and administrative areas to strengthen, promote and protect the GWU brand.

Our primary mission is to communicate the Gardner-Webb story to the world in ways that are compelling, creative, and captivating. These stories should accomplish one of three objectives:

  • Create awareness of our brand and programs;
  • Generate a preference for the GWU brand; and
  • Create and/or generate opportunities for action.

From developing strategic marketing plans and coordinating media interviews to designing print and digital communications, our goal is to make an impact. We evaluate each message to ensure that the highest presentation standards are met using the most up-to-date technology, as well as secure a positive return on investment.
