3. A “BRAND” IS…
• More than an aesthetic
• More than a logo or icon
• A REPUTATION: it’s the perception the
audience has of the organization
• Like all brands, the “CDC Brand” is
(and will be) defined by its audience

– ENGAGE AND LISTEN!
35. THE CDC IS FOCUSED
Consistency! A clean, modern, identifiable
logo and aesthetic on all distributed
electronic and physical materials, including
social media platforms. The CDC is always
on the same page.
36.
37. THE CDC IS VALUABLE
Organize! The CDC has invaluable
relationships and resources, and a talented
and skilled staff. People need to know this
– and ideally within the first few seconds of
visiting the CDC website or reading a CDC
email!
38. • Our generation is used to 30-second YouTube
videos and On-Demand television. We want
what we’re looking for quickly and without
hassle, or we lose patience!
• Students, faculty, alumni, and employers require
user-friendly, easy to understand vehicles of
communication.
• This means a thoughtful reorganization of:
– The CDC website
– CDC communications
(newsletters, flyers, emails)
– CDC event calendars
– Social media platforms

44. • Generate dynamic web profiles of individual career
counselors. Who are they? What struggles have they
faced? What do they do in their free time?
• Demonstrate that counselors are people too, and can
be a valuable part of your inner circle when it comes
to navigating vocations and careers
45. THE CDC IS RELEVANT
• Engage! Find out student interests by
getting in touch:
– Where they spend their time: in groups linked
by interest
– And Where they get their information: from
peers and social media
• Listen! Seek regular feedback from
students
46. • ENGAGE student group officers and SAL
(Student Activities & Leadership) staff
– Student groups are valuable, pre-arranged
communities who share interests and their
free time. Could they potentially contribute to
programming?
– At TAPS, over 90% of our student ticket
sales are a direct result of audience/cast or
crew member relationships. Students are
the best at reaching out to students.
– Make students a part of the CDC brand, and
they’ll make the CDC an integral part of their
Stanford experience
47. • LISTEN and seek feedback from students.
– The CDC website should feature a permanent
system for collecting anonymous feedback
– Students can be asked for feedback
immediately following events in person or via
social media
