FANTASTIC Ideas!
I just finished reading through all of your postings about the various methods the you folks use to generate excitement and build relationships within your schools.
AWESOME!
I have made a list that will become my new plan. It will include:
1) Hosting Charity Events and Open Houses.
2) Press releases about Grads.
3) Checks to students that make referrals.
4) Giving t-shirts away as walking advertisements.
Thank you for all of the ideas!
Wow . . . I'm gonna start with an Open House and an e-mail coupon for grad referrals that will give their referral a tuition reduction and the referee a check after one month, and start planning a charity event in the fall.
Pretty awesome!
THANK YOU ALL!
Your plans are great. Reminder to always measure results. Reminder that there are a lot of publicity opportunities before, during, and after events. Many strategies are so easy like giving away t shirts with the school name and ideally website! If you add an alumni association, and grads are happy, you have a great source of qualified leads. thanks, Susan
