Executive Summary

ORC Outdoor Program Director, Scott, expressed the desire to reach out to more students while
creating a distinct identity for the ORC. He worried that students confused the ORC with Outdoor Activities,
a campus-run group that puts on outdoor events with the ORCs equipment, as well as the Outdoor Learning
Center.

To measure the effectiveness of ORC advertising and public relations, the PR team created a survey
of 12 questions and sent it to 300 students selected by the university at random. Students were asked to
identify basic information about the ORC as well as identify how they heard about the ORC, how they felt
about its service, price, and inventory, and when they last rented/purchased from the ORC. The results were
surprising.


Ninety-four percent of the students surveyed heard about the ORC. When asked to identify its
purposes (they were asked to mark all that they thought applied), 83% knew that the ORC rented and sold
equipment; 60% thought the ORC led activities and provided training. While some confusion is evident, it is
not as significant as the PR teams original assumptions.

Reaching out to a smaller group of confused students requires that the ORC expand its influence to
students across campus. Creating a stronger and distinguishable brand will come only after students pay
attention to the ORC and interact with it--effectively done through online/social media engagement.

According to the survey, 81% of students know where the ORC is located, but only 60% have ever
been there. The survey identified a target audience (83%) of 19-25 year-old students. This age group indicates that it listens to social media advertising and word of mouth when hearing about or trusting a product.
The survey showed that 67% of students heard about the ORC through word of mouth, but only 17% of the
students heard about it through social media.

The PR team advertised to students about the ORC gear swap and held a raffle/giveaway tied to
social media engagement. By handing out fliers and advertising a raffle, people came directly to the ORC.
Computers were stationed at the gear swap and students and community members were awarded raffle
tickets if they liked the ORCs Facebook page, reviewed the ORCs Facebook page (which is rarely done
since it has a 50-words-or-more requirement), or shared the page.

Social media engagement including likes, reviews, and shares spiked after the event so the PR team
held another giveaway in the BYU-Idaho Manwaring Center on campus. The purpose of this giveaway
was to engage a crowd that doesnt typically attend the ORC Gear Swap but may have interest in renting
equipment. There were about 340 people who entered the giveaway--each completing likes, shares, or
reviews. Once winners were selected at each giveaway, they were invited to go back to the ORC to claim
their prize and take a picture for the ORC Facebook (to encourage more people to engage in future giveaways).

In addition to the social media driven giveaways, the PR team created a Buzzfeed article about the
ORC titled 15 Things You Didnt know You Could Rent at BYUI ORC to appeal to the target audience. The
article contained animated gifs, pictures, or videos describing each of the items.

At the beginning of the campaign, the ORC had 897 Facebook likes and 0 Facebook reviews.
There was no presence on the web that wasnt affiliated with BYU-Idaho. Now the ORC has 1,145 likes on
Facebook and 133 Facebook reviews with a 4.8 average star rating out of 5. This is an increase of 248 likes.
In addition, the ORC now has a Yelp account with positive reviews along with a Google Business account,
which helps distinguish it as its own business and makes it stand out when keywords are searched. The
business now appears on the side of Google with photos, virtual tours, hours, reviews, a phone number, and
directions to the store. You can also easily navigate on any smartphone.

GRAND REOPENING AT THE OUTDOOR RESOURCE CENTER


BYU-Idaho ORC helps students choose their own adventure

REXBURG, ID BYU-Idahos Outdoor Resource Center (ORC) is holding a grand


reopening insert date at insert time at the ORC under the football stadium. The
company launches its new Create Your Own Adventure campaign along with a
newly renovated building facilitating faster checkouts and more space to test out


Research was done to figure out how to execute future campaigns. One of the most prominent ideas
the PR team had was to include a 40% off rental coupon, along with wristbands in Get Connected packets,
which are distributed to new incoming freshmen. This will be beneficial because students can learn about the
ORC at the very beginning of their college career.

Comment [JG1]: For BYU-Idaho Scroll,

Miller or John Thompson at:
[email protected]
And
David Despain at the Standard Journal:
[email protected]


The positive feedback and engagement with students has been part of the preliminary plan in
preparation for the anticipated remodel next spring. The PR team suggests that a grand reopening be held
and it has provided press releases for the Standard Journal and the Scroll, a feature story for the Scroll, other
video media coverage options, contacts and information regarding a potentially impactful grand reopening
event featuring key brand-differentiating messages, new promotional material, and customer involvement
initiatives.

rented merchandise (add specifics about the renovations).


The grand reopening celebration is open to the public and will include free activities
including a rock wall, trike races, jousting, bubble suit soccer, and drawings and
giveaways. Among some of the giveaways will be list prizes.
We have been renting outdoor equipment to Rexburg locals for years, said Scott
Hurst, owner of the ORC, these renovations and the grand reopening are our way of
giving back to the community.

We have the gear, You have the adventure.

SWOT Analysis

The Outdoor Resource Center (ORC) is a business on BYU-Idahos campus that rents and sells just about everything an adventurer could need
for a great outdoor experience. Currently, the ORC enjoys a profit but it could increase involvement and awareness among BYU-Idaho students in
specific areas like social media and visits to the ORC building.

The ORC owner worries that students confuse the ORC with Outdoor Activities, or the Outdoor Learning Center (OLC), and he would like there to
be clarification among students. The ORC planned to remodel in October or early November but remodeling has been delayed to an unknown date
in Spring 2016. The PR team sees the impending remodel as an opportunity to rebrand and to correct any misconceptions--a plan was created for a
Grand Reopening with relevant strategies and tactics.

STRENGTHS

OPPORTUNITIES

The ORC has a variety of items available for rent during any season at
affordable prices.

The grand reopening is an opportunity to differentiate the company from others and to gain more momentum on social media and through word of mouth.

The ORC can serve anyone on campus as well as anyone in the community.

Fall IBC groups have partnered with or have expressed the interest to partner with the ORC and opportunities for future IBC companies to partner
with the ORC will continue because IBC companies start each semester. The
advantage of these partnerships is that they already advertise to students on
campus and they are generally popular.

There are group discounts or percentages off when more items are rented.
94% of BYU-Idaho students have heard about the ORC.
They have high-quality and expensive things to rent at amazing prices.
The ORC page has one of the largest viewership (after the PR campaign) out
of all the BYUI webpages.

Outdoor Resource Center

The ORC could create a separate website or blog apart from BYU-Idahos
website to make the page more visually appealing and drawing more customers.
The ORC could also offer internships to communication students to help create
better content for Facebook. This could also lead to creating an Instagram
account.

6
WEAKNESSES
Social media presence/influence was extremely low; only
17% of respondents (students) heard about the ORC through
social media
Brand differentiation is weak
There is a lack of communication with students when they
participate in activities with the Outdoor Learning Center or
Outdoor Activities.
The inventory is so large and the brochure can look daunting.
Customers arent allowed to pay online yet.

THREATS
Some people confuse the ORC with Outdoor Activities or
the Outdoor Learning Center and thus dont know that they
can rent equipment without a guide/planned activity.
Students involved on social media may turn to other rental
companies or stores in Rexburg because the ORC presence
has been very low. The lack of publicity could affect the
stores sales

Solutions for this could be:


We advised Scott, the advisor over Outdoor Activities, to train the students who lead the
trips and manage the activities to say at the end, All of this equipment was rented through
the Outdoor Resource Center. If you want to do this activity again, you can rent all the
equipment for it.
Work with the Jeffery Dunster, the Online Communications coordinator, to have a tagline when purchasing the activities that says All equipment rented through the Outdoor
Resource Center.
As mentioned earlier, the ORC could offer an internship to students in charge of creating
social media content so the Facebook page can be maintained and updated daily.

We have the gear, You have the adventure.

Target Audience and Publics


PRIMARY AUDIENCE:
BRIGHAM YOUNG UNIVERSITY - IDAHO STUDENTS 19-25 YEARS OLD

BYU-Idaho students make up nearly half of Rexburgs population. The number of BYU-Idaho students average
17,000 a semester. The ORC can take advantage of these stagering numbers and increase sales by reaching out to
students through social media platforms, LDS Wards/Stakes, and utilizing on campus advertising.

Outdoor Resource Center

8
The key publics identified for the ORC to focus on are
as follows:
Students (14 thousand on campus students each semester)

Clubs and associations
Wards

Family home evening groups

Freshmen (5 thousand freshmen each semester)
Customers (Community Members)

Members closely associated with students (Bishopric members,
professors, faculty, business owners) -- these are the people who should refer
students to the ORC
Partnerships

Outdoor Activities
Competitors

National Parks/Local Parks

Non-profits and charities

Buzzfeed


The ORC has such a large variety
to rent for different activities. In an effort to
get more of the less-known and more unique
products circulating around the Internet, the
PR team created a Buzzfeed Article titled,
15 Things You Didnt Know You Could Rent
at BYUI ORC. The buzzfeed article included
photos of products, animated gifs, and videos
showcasing how the products worked. It also
had prices, a link to the ORC, and other
helpful information.

Outdoor Resource Center

16


The team shared the article on multiple Facebook pages including the
ORC page, Rex Burg So Cial, Social Rexburg, and shared with their Facebook
friends who in turn shared with their friends. The team also shared it on blogs
about things to do in Rexburg, Twitter, and on Pinterest. The team also received an
email list with customers and included a link in an email sent to customers.


The article received huge success and fast. This could be something the
ORC does every semester to highlight products for that certain semester. The ORC
could consider having a communication intern that could be responsible for content
creation. The intern could also create an Instagram page for the ORC and post
daily to promote the ORC. The intern could find students and community members
in Rexburg and follow them in an effort to receive a follow back. Instagram is a huge
way to get people interacting with the company. To learn more about having an
intern, the ORC should use the contacts in the provided chart.

We have the gear, You have the adventure.

Google Business


A local business page was created for the ORC. The PR
team also established it as a verified Google business. This means
that when certain keywords are searched, the business will show
on the right side of the page. It will show hours the business is open,
directions to the business, reviews, photos, virtual tours, and other
helpful information. The team added in photos and filled in all the
information.
It is suggested to take new photos after the remodel is done and
add it to the page.

Strategies and Tactics

Increase Facebook likes by 100



The PR team handed out fliers promoting the Gear Swap event and invited
students to participate in a giveaway at the event. To enter the giveaway, students had
the option of liking and sharing the ORC Facebook page or writing a 50 word review
of the ORC. The PR team also set up a booth in the MC on campus offering the same
ways to earn entries into a separate contest. While doing this, Facebook likes increased
from 897 to 1,147 (Increasing daily). This was a 248 increase.

Increase Facebook reviews by 50



Originally, the ORC had 0 reviews on Facebook. A main goal was to build the
ORCs credibility of good products and service at a low price. In an effort to do this, the
PR team invited students to write a 50 word review on Facebook to earn an entry to the
contests mentioned above. The ORC now has 133 testimonials/reviews on its Facebook
page with an average 4.8 star rating (with 5 being the best rating).
*See Appendix for Actual Reviews

Outdoor Resource Center

24

Make ORC look more like a business



Because the ORC looks like its part of BYU-Idaho, it oftentimes doesnt appear
to be its own business serving its own purposes outside of the campus. In an effort to do
create a more distinguished identity, the PR team invited students to review the business on
Facebook and they created a Yelp page and established the ORC has a Google Business
so that the ORC will have official business pages pop up separate from the school when
someone looks it up online.

Get people inside the ORC



Publicising the gear swap and giveaways were only two of the ways that people
were drawn inside the ORC. Since it was assumed that a majority of people came to the
gear swap because they were already familiar with the ORC, the PR team wanted to
broaded the audience. A drawing was held in the MC for people who normally would
not go to the ORC. After everyone was entered in the two separate giveaways, they
were asked to go to the ORC to claim their prize. This is only a small way to get students
inside, but with their pictures claiming the prize posted on Facebook, it increases visits and
awareness.

The Team also partnered with Date Box, an IBC company. to offer a choose
your own date night package. (See Appendix for Flier)

We have the gear, You have the adventure.

Find out what people think about the ORC



In an effort to find out what BYU-Idahos students thought about BYU-Idaho, the
PR team sent out a survey to 300 random students. 84% of the students on campus know
that the ORC is for renting and buying equipment.

Outdoor Resource Center

26
Find out what people think about the ORC (Cont.)

Ninety-four percent of students who have heard of the ORC, only 82% knew
where it was and only 61% had ever been there before. These statistics later improved
as shown on page 34.

available when the company does this.
Figure out if how to get promotional items to freshmen. Example: Putting
business cards with 40% off coupons in get connected packets.
Find out how to have a booth at iNight and what the limitations are

Brainstorm new ideas to implement to promote to incoming freshmen


Write a pitch to the Scroll to put in the freshmen edition of the Scroll that
runs for the first two weeks of school

Write press releases to give to the Scroll and the Standard Journal to gain
media coverage
Plan for Grand Reopening and remodel
Find contacts and research prices to gain news and video
coverage at the event.

Create a flyer to handout prior to the event promoting the Grand Reopening

We have the gear, You have the adventure.

Research

Quantitative
Method 1:

The PR team sent a survey to 300 BYU-Idaho students at random and asked questions about the ORC. 94% of
student respondents had heard of the ORC. 89% of the respondents were 19-25 years of age. Due to the appearance of
a possible target age group, the PR team researched what would be the most effective form of advertising for that age
group: social media and word of mouth are popular and effective ways to reach them. When asking how students heard
about the ORC, only 18% of students said that they heard about the ORC through social media so social media became
a main focus. Participants of the survey received a percentage off for a rental. This helped get more people in the door and
gave an incentive for completing research.

Qualitative
Method 2:

Each person in the group will have two separate flyers with two different logos.
Show each logo to each person in the target audience
Ask the following questions:
Which one do you like better?
What do you like about this flyer?
Flyer two with the new logo was more popular than flyer one with the older logo. Those who liked flyer two said they enjoyed the
new, modern logo and that it made them feel creative, playful, and youthful. With a need to compete against electronics as the
preferred recreational entertainment, the Outdoor Resource Center has a need to make people feel creative so that they want to
go out and explore their own adventures. Respondents also said that the older logo lacked color and made them feel like they were
refrained from their own adventure.

effort to build the ORCs image.


Unfortunately, due to the fact that the ORC is under BYU-Idahos rules, there are
some ideas that we have that wont be able to work currently, but we hope the ORC can
implement them in the future.
