Do things look a bit different around here to you? That’s because they are—TVP Comms has a brand-new look and feel that much better represent the individualized attention and higher ed industry expertise we offer our clients. Teresa shares her thoughts on our rebranding and how it truly reflects our work, our passion, and our approach to higher ed.
Teresa and Erin were at the 2018 American Marketing Association Symposium for the Marketing of Higher Education in Orlando, Fla, where they led a crisis communication roundtable and a workshop on understanding and planning for institutional crises.
