Search Influence, a New Orleans-based higher education digital marketing agency, is set to present at the 2024 Annual UPCEA Conference. This year's conference, dedicated to advancing professional, continuing, and online education, will take place in Boston, MA from March 26-28, 2024.
In an enlightening session titled "Secrets of Highly Successful Enrollment Marketing Teams: Proven Strategies to Set & Reach Goals and Maximize Budgets," Search Influence’s Paula French will join forces with Val Fox from EAB, Alicia Jasmin from the Tulane School of Professional Advancement, and Leo Rice from the University of Massachusetts, Lowell. Together, they will tackle the prevalent challenge of meeting graduate and adult learner enrollment goals in higher education. Many institutions face this ever-present hurdle, as evidenced by a recent EAB survey, where 50% of graduate enrollment leaders reported not meeting their targets, and a recent Search Influence | UPCEA study that shows 47% are satisfied with their marketing campaign performance overall.
The interactive session will give participants strategic insights into effective enrollment goal setting with key stakeholders, hands-on approaches to enrollment funnel management, and top strategies to reduce cost per inquiry — the number one KPI to improve paid advertising results. Attendees will also discover how to maximize marketing budgets without compromising lead quality, focusing on keyword optimization and bidding strategies, among other tactics.
“In our latest research conducted with UPCEA, we saw that universities have room to improve the performance of their higher education digital marketing strategies,” said Paula French of Search Influence. “Our session will cover how to make improvements to your digital advertising campaigns to drive better results across the board.”
