University Marketing

We run recruitment marketing measured against enrolled students, not against clicks.

Why it matters

Applications Run On A Cycle

Recruitment does not spread evenly across the year. Interest, applications and decisions each peak at different points, and campaigns pitched flat miss all three.

Spending the same amount every month means paying most where competition is highest and least where intent is.

The real risk

Clicks Are Not Enrolments

Agencies report traffic because it moves quickly, but an application takes months and a deposit takes longer still.

A campaign optimised to cheap clicks can look excellent all year and deliver a weaker intake than the one before it.

What we build

Recruitment That Converts

Campaigns built around the application cycle.

Cycle Planning

Budget weighted to the points where interest, applications and decisions actually peak in your calendar.

Course Pages

A page per course built to answer what applicants ask before they will start an application.

Paid Recruitment

Search and social pointed at genuine course intent rather than broad institutional awareness.

International

Country-specific campaigns and pages for the markets you actually recruit from each year.

Applicant Nurture

Sequences that keep applicants engaged through the long gap between enquiry and deposit.

Enrolment Reporting

Every channel tied back to applications and enrolled students, reported by course.

By course

The payoff

A Stronger Intake

Campaigns land where the cycle actually is, so budget stops being spread evenly across months that behave nothing alike.

Reporting by course means underfilled programs get attention while there is still time to do something about it.

Planned Around The Cycle

Interest, application and decision each peak at different points of the university year, and a flat monthly budget serves none of those three moments well.

We weight spend towards the moments that actually decide the intake, which is where most university budgets are thinnest.

Course Level Visibility

An institution-wide total hides the individual programs that are underfilling, usually until the point in the cycle where nothing useful can be done about it.

We report each course separately, so an underfilled program at your college surfaces while there is still time to act on it.

Measured To Enrolment

The distance from enquiry to enrolled student is months long, which is why most reporting stops at the click.

We carry attribution all the way through applications to the students who actually enrol at the university, not to the click.

Why us

We Measure Enrolments

We track the whole distance from first enquiry to enrolled student, because that is the only number the institution is judged on.

It means slower reporting in month one and far better decisions by the time the cycle matters.

What our clients say

An open-ended service business became two priced tiers on the page. Publishing the price filters the enquiries before they reach a human, which is worth more than the few it loses.

Common questions

Questions We Get

How much does university recruitment marketing cost?
Single channel management starts at $2,000 a month, three channels together at $5,000, and the full program across all five channels at $8,000 a month.
Can you report on cost per enrolled student?
Yes. We carry attribution from first enquiry through application to enrolment, so you get cost per enrolled student by course rather than cost per click.
Do you handle international student recruitment?
Yes. We build country-specific campaigns and landing pages for the markets you actually recruit from, because those markets rarely behave the same way.
How do you plan around clearing and deadlines?
Budget is weighted to the points in your cycle where interest, applications and decisions peak, with clearing and deadline pushes planned well in advance.
Will individual departments get their own reporting?
Yes. Every course is measured separately so underfilled programs are visible while there is still time in the cycle to do something about them.
Do you work with colleges as well as universities?
Yes. Community colleges, private colleges and universities all run recruitment cycles, and the same course-level measurement applies to each of them.
