What does ineffective school marketing sound like?
- “Why does no one seem to know we’re here?”
- “Why are other schools gaining pupils and we’re not?”
- “We can’t recruit a Teaching Assistant until we’ve filled more school places and secured the additional revenue.”
- “Shall we try an advert in the local newspaper?”
What does ineffective school marketing feel like?
- Frustration- nothing seems to work
- No time – you’re multitasking across a million things and constantly firefighting
- Confusion – a lack of clarity about whether you’re putting your efforts into the right areas
- Deflation – masses of effort yet little measurable outcome.
And what does ineffective school marketing ultimately look like?
- Seeing adverts for your competitor school seemingly everywhere
- A lack of enquiries
- A pupil deficit
- A drop in school revenue
Does any of this sound familiar?
If you find yourself nodding, this has to stop.
