Strategy & Brand Management
Strategy
Marketing and Communications is a strategic arm of UI Health, and we take pride in working with internal and external clients to achieve goals by showing measurable results. When we begin a marketing campaign or communications plan, we first dive into market research and analytics. This includes working SWOTT sessions (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, Threats, and Trends), surveys, and competitor analyses. From there, we look at the business goals and objectives and target audiences, so that we can formulate the best strategy to achieve the desired results.
As healthcare becomes more consumer-centric, and as customers continue to have more choice, our marketing team continually develops innovative tactics for executing plans. We can provide strategic direction on the following:
- Internal and external marketing and communication plans, including crisis communications
- Service line marketing campaigns
- Brand campaigns
- Employee and physician engagement
- Customer engagement
- Advertising
- Promotional work
- Community events
Brand Management
Our job is to make sure that the culture and essence of UI Health is accurately reflected across all marketing pieces. Our clients have heard us say it time and time again: “A brand is not a logo.” It truly is the essence of the organization. The UI Health brand — whether conveyed through a phone call, a patient pamphlet, or a web page — is how we interact with people. We work to make sure these touch points and the experience all are integrated seamlessly. Working from a well-defined set of brand standards, we set out to develop collateral that stands out, messaging that is consistently smart, and customer experiences that deliver upon a brand’s identity at every turn. Our branding services include:
- Brand profile development

Photography
Photography tells the story of UI Health and the amazing work we do here every day, and we look at each photo as an opportunity to continue to tell our story. Whether it’s something as simple as an employee headshot or a documentary photo of a patients receiving world-class treatment, all photos get the professional treatment. All photos are taken with full-frame, professional-grade DSLRs and light kits. During post-production, all images are color-calibrated and retouched before being distributed and archived on the UI Health Photo Library.
Video Production
We bring to life the stories of our patients and healthcare providers. Each video project begins with a development meeting to discuss objectives and requirements, followed by pre-production, which includes creation of storyboards and scripts, and equipment and location preparation. Post-production editing, sound design, and rendering and encoding ensures the final video is best formatted for each channel of distribution. The result is a final product that touches emotions, builds trust, and creates connections between UI Health and our patient community.
