How We Can Help with Your Charter School Enrollment Marketing

It’s never too late to start thinking about upping your charter school enrollment marketing game! Start prepping now for open houses in the spring, and get your summer enrollment marketing efforts planned for summer! Not sure where or how to get going?

Our best-in-class enrollment marketing team can help you:

  • Increase Traffic: Increase organic traffic by optimizing your website and social media channels
  • Raise Awareness: Targeted marketing efforts will help raise community awareness of your school, attracting new families and potential future students
  • Increase Enrollment: Attract more families, engage with them, nurture them, and convert them to boost student enrollment
  • Retain Students: Retaining your current students is vital to your school’s longevity and more cost effective than attracting and acquiring new ones

Charter School Capital’s Enrollment Marketing Program is designed to positively impact your charter school’s viability by boosting enrollment numbers through targeted marketing efforts. You can choose a program that focuses on generating awareness primarily through digital marketing, or one that also includes “ground game” marketing to convert applicants to enrollment. All efforts will be customized for each school’s unique needs, and may include the following:

DIGITAL MARKETING

  • Organic Search (optimizing website for search results)
  • Paid Search (Google, Niche)
  • Landing Pages to Capture Interest

THE GROUND GAME

Organizing Open Houses / School Tours

Organizing Community Meet & Greets

  • Arrange community meetings in libraries, coffee shops, pizza parlors, etc. for parents to casually meet other families and parents and staff from school to drive interest
