Worldwide, national, and even local companies participate in campus rep programs; they can be product-focused, service-focused, for-profit, nonprofit, startup, established, or any other type of organization. Campus rep programs are an effective way to market your product or service on college campuses by putting your company’s advertising in the hands of a student’s peers. College students enjoy interacting with the brands they patronize and will pay more attention to a brand with a presence on their campus. Many times these programs focus on product lines or services that are particularly attractive or useful to college students.The marketing tactics campus reps use tend to be creative and attention-grabbing, with campaigns frequently coinciding with campus events. The campaigns’ connection to campus events typically make them a very cogent form of marketing for college students.
