Enrollment Sales Conversations with Chuck Bankoff
- No title 00:00
08:36 “As you say, first things first. We strongly advocate starting with a
strategy before the school invests any resources into marketing. You know,
sometimes those resources are money. Sometimes those resources are
people.”15:06 “But if a school did have limited resources, I would start with the
school website. At the end of the day, all roads lead to the website. Google,
Facebook, Instagram, even offline marketing like sending out postcards to
the local area will eventually result in a visit from an interested parent. And
sending perfectly good traffic to a mediocre website is not a good strategy.”17:31 “And so I might consider doing some Google Adwords, pay-per-click
work. I would consider doing some Facebook advertising as my next step.
Maybe the following quarter after that, I might look at search engine
optimization. That’s more of a long-term strategy.”18:06 “One other thing I would do but I would be doing it all the time along
the way is I’d be working on a reviews strategy. You know, getting 5 star
reviews from parents because parents like to see that you’ve made other
parents and students happy.”
