Some of the frequently asked questions pertaining to promoting events in Capitol Federal Hall are listed below.

Promoting Your Event

• All clubs officially recognized by the UBC must include our logo in all promotional materials of events that are partially or fully funded by the Undergraduate Business Council. Please email exec@kansasbusinesscouncil.com if you need a transparent logo for your promotional materials.

• ​​What's the best way to advertise my event? We suggest classroom visits to your target audience. Many professors will welcome you to make a brief announcement before class, but check with the professor well in advance and come prepared with an easy to read flyer. Occasionally, professors may entertain extra credit points for their students to attend if the event is specifically related to their course material. 

​

• How do we get on the calendar? We prefer clubs fill out the Get on Our Calendar form. If your organization schedules a last-minute event, you can also email us at exec@kansasbusinesscouncil.com with event details. Please include a date, time, location (including room number), and brief description of the event. Only events open to the whole School of Business will be included on our calendar. Once events are posted on our calendar, they will automatically be uploaded to the video board.

 

• How do we add events to the KU Business Career+ app? Many students use this app to plan their day, so this would be a great resource to use if you are looking to promote your event to a larger audience. Contact Jennifer Jordan in Business Career Services at jjordan@ku.edu to set this up.

 

• What about social media? Snapchat, Twitter, Facebook and Instagram will work if you have the followers. Try copying @KUbschool or @KansasUBC so we can share your posts with our followers. If you have a promotional graphic prepared for an event, you can submit it to exec@kansasbusinesscouncil.com, and we will post it to our Instagram and Facebook pages for you.

 

• How do we get on that giant TV? Email your flyer to Michael Brock at mike88@ku.edu to get your message out via the video board or the smaller monitors around Capitol Federal Hall. Please provide at least 48 hours notice. Here's what you need to know:
  • If you design the graphics, you'll need to provide Michael a .jpg file that is 3,648 x 960 pixels in size.
  • If you need help designing the graphics, provide Michael with basic information about your event and he can help you with the design process. If your club plans to have Michael create the graphic, you must notify him well in advance of the event.
  • Provide Michael with start and end dates for the graphic to run.
