What makes it work
By design, we are a small team. That means we can’t work with everyone that we’d like to and we sometimes have to be selective in who we take on as clients. Below are a few things that we look for when considering new partnerships:
Entrepreneurial spirit. Education is typically not associated with innovation, but as audience preferences evolve and new marketing channels emerge, it’s becoming more important to have the freedom and license to think outside of “how we typically do things”
Admissions and marketing collaboration. Typically, our points of contact work in the marketing department. But having an admissions presence in our discussions allows our marketing work be supportive of the broader enrollment strategy, shortens the feedback loop, and improves the effectiveness of our work
Access to institutional leadership. While we’re perfectly content to work in the background, our work shines when we have institutional buy-in. We provide board reports that highlight our wins, illuminate looming challenges, and ensures that our work remains relevant to institutional strategies.
