A school brand in action.
On this episode, we dive into the marketing department of Foundation Academy in Winter Garden, Florida. I’m joined by Joseph Cioffi, the director of marketing and communications. We discuss his unique background, from being a Disney animator to shaping the brand of Foundation Academy. We also talk about how his team works to continually develop the messaging that connects with their audience, create on-campus touchpoints, and build brand equity from the inside out.

To be given the opportunity to work in a creative field that impacts the lives of young people is an awesome responsibility and a blessing. The bible verse that has had a profound impact on me is Proverbs 27:17 “Iron sharpens iron, as one person sharpens another.”
