INBOUND MARKETING
FOR EDUCATION
Education Marketing has Changed.
The way people buy education has changed and prospective students and their parents, as well as corporate training buyers, now use the internet as their main source of research.
Buying decisions are often made without seeing traditional advertising and marketing, making radio, TV, direct mail, and print advertising less effective.

Inbound marketing can help education marketing and admissions departments attract and convert students more cost-effectively than traditional marketing.
What is Inbound Marketing?
Inbound Marketing is designed around the way people buy today.

The Inbound Marketing Philosophy
The internet changed marketing for good. And that's a good thing. It's made it possible for any business to earn its way into the hearts and minds of its customer base, rather than simply being a case of the biggest spender wins.
Pre-Internet Marketing
Before the internet, buyers were not able to research markets, products and companies easily, and so they were relatively uninformed. The buyer's journey tended to be linear, and marketing tactics like advertising and cold calling were interruptive.
Post Internet Marketing
Today's buyers have enormous informative resources on their desks, in their bags and in their pockets, and tend to be extremely well informed. They are able to research markets, products and companies directly, and also get peer reviews and recommendations extremely quickly and easily. The buyer's journey is fluid and random, but generally starts with Google searches, and the best strategies now are based around thought leadership and content creation.
