Student-Run Real-world clients

304 Marketing Agency

More Than a Classroom—This Is Hands-On Marketing

At 304 Marketing Agency, students don’t just learn about marketing. They do marketing. 

This student-run agency, housed in the Chambers College of Business and Economics at WVU, gives students the chance to roll up their sleeves and tackle real projects for real businesses. From branding and social media strategy to market research and digital campaigns, they’re not just studying theory—they’re out there applying it.

Turning Learning Into Action

There’s only so much you can get from a textbook. At 304 Marketing Agency, students take what they’ve learned in class and put it into practice, working with local businesses and organizations to solve real marketing challenges. Need to develop a brand identity? Build an audience on social media? Analyze customer data to refine a campaign? Our students do it all, gaining hands-on experience that makes them stand out when they hit the job market.

Opportunities That Go Beyond the Basics

This isn’t just another class project—it’s the real deal. Students work directly with clients, collaborate with faculty mentors, and gain experience that looks great on a résumé. For those who want to take their skills even further, there are paid fellowships that provide deeper, more immersive learning opportunities. Along the way, they build portfolios packed with real-world work, make industry connections, and develop the confidence to take on whatever comes next.

Helping Businesses While Building Careers

Local businesses get more than just fresh ideas—they get research-backed marketing solutions from students trained in the latest trends and technologies. Whether it’s a social media strategy, a data-driven ad campaign, or a full-scale rebrand, 304 Marketing Agency provides businesses with innovative, actionable insights. And in the process, students sharpen their skills, make a real impact, and leave WVU with more than just a degree—they leave with experience.

Get Involved

Whether you’re a student looking to gain real-world experience or a business interested in working with a talented team of young marketers, 304 Marketing Agency is where strategy meets opportunity.
