Benjamin Franklin Institute of Technology Customer Journey Campaign

Project Overview

As the oldest trade school located favorably in Boston, BFIT traditionally held in-person recruitment events where enrolling students were walked through the application process and potential future career paths.

With the pandemic, BFIT was not only forced to develop an online hybrid school model, but was forced to rethink recruitment as well. Overdrive helped BFIT launch a successful digital program with the intent of supplementing their in-person events.
