Marketing opportunities for brands and local businesses

Marjon Student Union is an organisation run for and by the student population of Plymouth Marjon University. Student Unions are a unique chance for students to lead their own services and to help support and represent themselves throughout their educational careers.

Students are a key market for many brands, not least because they have an average annual spending power of £10 billion comprising mostly disposable income. At university, students are also in the process of developing brand associations and many are making their own purchasing decisions for the first time, creating a key opportunity for businesses to capture the market.

Plymouth Marjon University has approximately 3,000 students in full and part-time courses and the Student Union is the hub and gateway to all aspects of student life. We have over 1,000 registered students who have signed up for emails, and our Facebook user groups are interlinked to promote and advertise information to our students. This puts us in the unique position of providing our clients with a direct and hassle-free media placement service, allowing them to reach this lucrative market.
