Project scope
What is the main goal for this project?

Our company advertises thousands of products online. We hope to revamp our email marketing to attract more customers.

We would like to work with students to design a new email marketing campaign for our company.

This will involve several different steps for the students, including:

  • Familiarizing themselves with our company’s products, email marketing campaign goals and target market.
  • Identifying types of emails and content that our company should send out such as welcome emails, newsletters, and re-engagement emails.
  • Researching factors affecting the effectiveness of email marketing such as when emails are sent and making recommendations.
  • Identifying metrics to monitor throughout the campaign.

Bonus steps in the process would also include:

  • Identifying ways to personalize emails for customers based on market segmentation.
What tasks will learners need to complete to achieve the project goal?

By the end of the project, students should demonstrate:

  • Understanding of our company’s products and goals
  • Identification of suitable email types and content
  • Understanding of factors affecting emails’ effectiveness
  • Identification of metrics to monitor the campaign’s success

Bonus steps would include:

  • Recommending strategies to personalize emails

Final deliverables should include

  • A 10-minute presentation
How will you support learners in completing the project?

Students will connect directly with us for mentorship throughout the project. We will be able to provide answers to questions such as:

  • Our current products and email marketing
  • Our customer and industry insights
  • Input on choices, problems or anything else the students might encounter.
What skills or technologies will help learners to complete the project?

In order to complete this project, students can self-teach, but it is beneficial to be familiar with:

  • Email marketing

Again, students can complete this project without any of the prior knowledge listed here. Students will be expected to research and learn more about the above as the project goes along.

About the company

Through the experience of my decade (and still going) career as an Army Officer, I’ve learned a lot. From a deployment in Afghanistan, to teaching at West Point, to managing the operations of large organizations, I’ve learned this: The key to everything is simplicity.

Veterans Easy Trash Service brings this philosophy to you. If you’ve ever tried taking junk to the landfill, renting a dumpster, or tackling out of control trash, you’ve learned it’s anything but simple.

Find out how simple we can make it for you. Simplicity, guaranteed.
