The Marketing Department is one of the most broad ranging departments within FPP. Every department fills an important role in the life of the IFSTA manuals. Our role is to share the story, both of the manuals and the committee members, staff members, Executive Board, and the everyday firefighters who use our materials. 

Our day-to-day tasks vary greatly. One day might be social media, another press releases, videos, and company engagement. We have to be ready to switch between mediums that cannot be more different: photos, videos, Google Drive, paper, sketches. We use it all, and are discovering more ways every day. Okay, let's get into this. Buckle up.
