Marketing Resources

Huntsman Swag
How can a club order Huntsman Swag?
For an internal Huntsman department, club, or organization, we suggest that you schedule a meeting with your designated representative to discuss purchase items and to place the actual order.
Club Website
Our club has a Huntsman School website. How does a member of our club get training/access to update our website?
One representative from each club will need to complete training for the Content Management System (CMS) being used by the Huntsman School. Once the training has been completed, that individual will be granted access to your club site.
To schedule a training, contact the Jon M. Huntsman School of Business Webmaster, Shara Gibbons, at shara.gibbons@usu.edu.
What website rules/guidelines do clubs need to follow?
Club sites are a representation of the Huntsman School of Business, therefore they must follow the same website branding rules established for the School. Clubs must use the approved Huntsman School template and heading and paragraph styles (they may not be overwritten). External forms, calendars, etc., are not approved for use.
All questions regarding website rules and guidelines should be directed to the Jon M. Huntsman School of Business Webmaster, Shara Gibbons, at shara.gibbons@usu.edu.
Email Marketing
Can our club send a mass email to all Huntsman?
You cannot receive emailing lists to any targeted group at Utah State University. The best way to promote your initiatives via email is to add your event to the calendar at huntsman.usu.edu/calendar where it will be included in the This Week @ Huntsman email.

Please submit any events to though the "Submit An Event" button on the Jon M. Huntsman School of Business Events Calendar: http://huntsman.usu.edu/calendar.
The public events calendar is open to anyone in the school. We strongly encourage reviewing this calendar before planning your event to avoid scheduling multiple events in the same time period.
By submitting an event to the public event calendar, your event will automatically be publicized in This Week @ Huntsman.
