The 4 Ps of Marketing

• Price
• Promotion
• How, Where on Campus?
• Playbook Exercises
• Placement
• Who are we looking for?

Chapter Marketing Plan

• Advertise and do it effectively
• How and where.
• Creating a rush Marketing Plan
• How will Kappa Sigma present itself on campus?
• How will the chapter stand out from the other
  organizations?

11
Objections for Growth Exercise

• Quality not Quantity
• We have never had a rush that big before
• Our Rush budget is too small
• Rush is down all over campus-there arent any
  good guys out there.
• Our chapter is too small to handle a big class.
• A big chapter has no brotherhood.
• But I am not good at meeting people.

• Recruitment not as strong as it could be
• How do others perceive Kappa Sigma on your
  campus?
• Brothers are not goal orientated
• Perceived as a middle of the pack chapter
• Limited Leadership in the chapter
• Lower GPA than you could have
• Do only 1-2 philanthropies a year
• Low Ritual Proficiency
• May have had some disciplinary items
• Not a FACE Award caliber Chapter
• Perhaps NOT the best and largest on campus

Visualize your chapter in the Future

• Solid Brotherhood with a larger chapter
• Financially Secure because you are larger
• Perceived as 1 on campus
• Leaders on Campus
• GPA well above the campus average
• Known as Philanthropists
• Strong Ritually Proficient
