School marketing that develops strategies for growth through continuous improvement

Strategy & planning is essential to school marketing

School marketing is often perceived as being solely about creating glossy brochures, school publications and advertisements that ‘sell’ a school. This is a short-sighted view.

At MAPS Marketing, we disrupt common misconceptions by offering effective school marketing that develops strategies for growth through improvement which in turn increases and retains school enrolments.

Developing a Marketing Strategy begins with analysis

A Marketing Strategy defines your approach to achieving a competitive advantage. It’s your overall ‘game plan’ to reach your market and appeal to them. Determining a strategy is best done collaboratively with input from the leadership team and key personnel. 

To build your strategy, MAPS offers a two-part, onsite workshop which we call Strategy Workshop I.

Strategy Workshop 1 helps you assess, audit, and analyse your school based on the seven P’s of services marketing: product, people, physical evidence, promotion, process, place, and price.

The work carried out in Strategy Workshop I includes:

  • Identifying and sizing your target market;
  • Conducting a competitor and situational analysis;
  • Profiling your demographic and geo-demographic environment;
  • Performing a detailed SWOT analysis;
  • Reviewing your enrolment and transition performance: and
  • Articulate your goals for success.

Each component of the workshop will identify successes and determine gaps that reveal opportunities to improve your school, which collectively contributes to the development of your strategy.

A Marketing Plan is the MAP to execute your strategy

Armed with the whole picture and a clear strategy, MAPS is perfectly positioned to create a tactical Marketing and Communications Plan to support all of your marketing and communication.

Planning Workshop II again occurs in a two-part, onsite workshop. After Workshop II, your school will have a transparent and predictable plan to create and distribute your marketing and communications material in print and digitally.

To help our clients keep track of their marketing year on year, MAPS supply clients who have participated in this process with their own Marketing Toolbox via a dedicated Portal.
