Project Examples

The projects that I would be interested in are for small businesses struggling to develop new marketing ideas to expand their business. Therefore, businesses may want to expand their presence online, try new social media platforms, enter new market segments, or further enhance their communications with customers.

Companies must answer the following questions to submit a match request to this experience:

Provide a dedicated contact who is available to answer periodic emails or phone calls over the duration of the project to address students' questions.

Be available for a quick phone call with the instructor to initiate your relationship and confirm your scope is an appropriate fit for the course.
