Through an enrollment lens: B: The .edu is your only 24/7 resource (no shade to YouTube), & if info isn't easy to find quickly, prospects will bounce. C is a close 2nd. Brand affinity is important, especially top of funnel, but at the end of the day, it comes down to need-to-know vs. nice-to-know

OK, email marketers, this is driving me nuts. What's the benefit of changing your "from" name if the email address is the same? I've got filters for these senders and they're routed to my "evil don't open" folder regardless. Are they victimizing the filterless? @kibilds.bsky.social @ashleybudd.com

So I guess the key difference between republicans and democrats is that conservatives are watching Elon and Trump at a SpaceX launch while liberals are holding space for defying gravity

I never decorated for fall. I usually go all out but I’ve been overwhelmed. But I’m totally doing all the Christmas things during this break 👀

Just a reminder that there’s an app available for your TV called PBS RETRO where you can watch all sorts of wonderful old pbs shows like Mr. Rogers and Reading Rainbow, you know, in case you might need that sort of energy right now

As the parent of a high school senior nearing college application deadlines, I move that we in #HigherEdMarketing stop using the term “important step in your educational journey” and lean into “absolute trauma that will ruin the holidays” 🫠

First full week back in the office and we kicked it off with pizza and a sit-down with my enrollment marketing team and an admission counselor, who shared insights about how high school students perceive Pacific, common roadblocks to enrollment and the actual admission process. Did I mention pizza?

BlueSky, meet Miyo. She is very much an indoor cat but escaped while I was in Vegas for the #AMAHigherEd conference. She spent a rainy night outside and was found hiding in a bush the day before I came home. I’m happy to report that she’s back to her regular activities of sleeping and looking cute

#higheredmarketing friends, don’t be a victim of brand squatting. Claim your school’s handle — and all variations thereof — whether you intend to include BlueSky in your social strategy or not
