AI can show you what prospective parents search for, where they get stuck, and what they need at each stage of the decision. Early on, they want your mission and programs. L

School marketing isn't about having the biggest budget or the flashiest website. It's not about winning awards or going viral. It's about finding the right students for your school and helping them find you. Keep that as your north star and everything else gets simpler.

School marketers are some of the hardest working people I know. They wear five hats. They work nights and weekends. They say yes to everything. And yet many still struggle to move the needle on enrollment. The problem is not effort. The problem is that effort without strategy is just motion.
