Bill Scott Says: “ Generating Higher Education Leads Takes A Higher Form Of Marketing”
One of the coolest guys I ever met. I remember meeting with one of my future clients Bob Barker, former Executive Vice President for University of Phoenix. Mr. Barker was known as an innovative educational entrepreneur having partnerships with accredited colleges and universities to increase enrollment through marketing, lead generation and retention services. Bob told me he was tired of buying 3rd party higher education leads and wanted to be a soup to nuts agency providing marketing, lead generation, enrollment counselor services.
He went on and told me about a major Midwest University spending approximately three million dollars over two years and acquiring only fifteen students! He jokingly asked me if I could do better than that. I think it was 2007 or 2008. I already had 13 years of internet marketing and lead generating experience, so I said heck yea!
We had a more formal meeting which I over-prepared for, if there can be such a thing. I showed up to the office with what have been at least 100 pages of different examples of SEO and PPC campaigns that I created. I was hired on the spot.

Competitive ZERO Sum Game: Limited Commercially Viable Keyword Volume For Student Enrollments leads.
The competitive nature of the business niche. This translates into the number of companies that are competing to get noticed in the search engine results pages. A large city might have 50 law firms competing for the phrase law firm in phoenix. The same city might only have 5 businesses that compete for a phrase like extra large pigeon coops.
Amount of revenue generated per lead generated and closed transactions.
Highest Value Per Web Visitor.
The cost per click could also be a reflection of the revenue generated by a sale or client acquisition. If you are selling an item that retails for $10.00 it might not make sense to bid $11.00 on that keyword. If you are an online school and each new student acquired for the school generates $50,000.00 paying $35.00 per click might seem pretty inexpensive.

Email Marketing For Higher Education Lead Generation.
Email marketing is a form of direct marketing that uses electronic mail as the means of communication. Often used to acquire new students or convince prospective students to take an immediate action, email marketing is also well suited to enhance the relationship of an educational institution with its current student base or alumni and/or encourage brand loyalty.
Compared to other media investments such as direct mail or printed newsletters, e-mail is less expensive. A precise return on investment can be calculated with email marketing. Email can be tracked via auto-responders, web bugs, bounce messages, unsubscribe requests, read receipts, click-throughs, etc. These mechanisms can be used to measure open rates, positive or negative responses, and to correlate conversions with marketing. We often find that email marketing is the most underutilized used form of higher education lead generation.
Ad Web Designs offers a comprehensive email marketing strategy including creative design, copywriting, mailing list management, individual email customization (based on first name, degree program, location, etc), email deployment and reporting. We always stay on top of email authentication issues, and we manage reputation and certification issues to ensure your messages make it through to the intended recipient. We also understand the idiosyncrasies of the different webmail services.
