Marketing Needs Request Form

PICM produces the college catalogs and broad marketing needs, and also helps other departments achieve their marketing goals. Because projects range in size, purpose and complexity, the time for design and printing varies significantly. Some projects take as long as 8 weeks to complete. Please plan in advance.

To request merchandise with your department or program name on it, please use our Merchandise and Specialty Artwork Request Form.

If you need help in planning an event, please visit our Event Publicity Checklist/Request.

Approvals

It is most effective for us to work with one point of contact.

If your department or committee requires final approval from more than one person, YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE for obtaining this. Your approval to us indicates that you have obtained the necessary final sign-off. By approving your proof, YOU TAKE RESPONSIBILITY for any errors, whether in design or in copy.

Design will not begin until final text has been approved. Please proof carefully!
