Resource Network Guide
Departments and offices at Virginia Tech have a growing need for marketing and communications services. Communications and Marketing created this guide to facilitate the process to obtain creative outside/freelance resources to help campus communicators and the university community fulfill needs.
In partnership with the university’s Procurement department, Communications and Marketing identified and vetted vendors in a variety of specialties and secured competitively negotiated university contracts for high-quality creative services. These contracts are available through HokieMart.
Social media vendors are near the bottom of the page in the Resource Network Guide.
