Yaffe Center Digital
Digital initiatives have led to the development of new media models and previously untapped opportunities in advertising and marketing. From search engine marketing to corporate websites, from social media pages to blogs,and from email campaigns to the newest mobile devices, the digital world has had a profound impact on marketing and communications.
Over the past several years, the Yaffe Center has sponsored outside speakers, conferences, events and courses which have covered these topics.
- Conferences: The Center maintains its leadership in teaching and research on persuasive communication by hosting conferences on emerging topics in the area.
- Speakers: The Yaffe Center hosts leading practitioners and experts in every aspect of persuasive communication. Hear the people who create the latest techniques to appeal to consumers, from new ways to use mobile phones to non-traditional advertising.
- Workshops: Some topics won’t wait for the formal presentations at a conference, or they are techniques and practices that require hands-on experience. The Yaffe Center offers workshops to update skills and keep practitioners informed about the fast-developing field of persuasive communication.
The Yaffe Center has also created wikis with the latest information, best practices, and learnings on key topics within digital marketing. These wiki pages are based on student papers and independent study projects, but can be updated and added to by anyone in the U-M community.
