About this event

College and Graduate School admissions have already changed in the past few years due to technology, politics and changing attitudes. Now COVID is a potential black swan. Higher ed recruiters of all kinds need to do more with less to convince their prospects that their school is the right choice during this turbulent time.

Your institution’s brand equity can help continue to drive awareness and preference. But the real battleground is yield. Learn how to harness digital and virtual tactics to attract, nurture, and convert prospects in the new economy. The result? A well-shaped class for the same marketing budget. Won’t that be nice for the trustees to hear?

Join our panelists from both the agency and client-side: VP Paul Fahey, Director of Digital Marketing Dr. Chris Fasano and Sean Fitzpatrick, Marketing Director at the University of New England. In less than an hour you’ll learn how to better:

  • Nurture and convert prospects using the tools you already have
  • Develop dashboards that prove ROI
  • Create content at the velocity needed for the attention economy that caters to the unique habits and preferences of different age cohorts, including potential undergrads and grad students

Who should attend?

This webinar is relevant to higher ed admissions and marketing professionals that missed their class or will continue to push throughout the summer of 2021.
