I’ve worked with higher education service providers and marketing agencies for more than 10 years ... The stark difference with Tronvig was apparent from the first conversation. Tronvig focuses on the thinking and intention behind every creative element. This ensures alignment with our brand strengths while allowing us to test new creative options in a targeted way. They also understand the nature of higher education politics and what’s important for prospective students. Our team and senior leadership both are thoroughly impressed by their work!

Situation

At the end of August 2021, MCNY needed to create a Bronx-focused student recruitment campaign for which there were no ready assets and no time for custom photography, and yet the campaign needed to feel authentic to prospects in the South Bronx.

Discovery

The South Bronx is simultaneously the poorest community in the United States and a community with a strong feeling of pride with respect to the Bronx. The campaign needed to be approachable and feel authentic to the Bronx.

Seeing these guys come up with ideas to solve an issue I might bring up, and then watch them fix it live with us right there on the call—it was totally new to me. Tronvig takes teamwork to a whole new level.
