HubSpot for Higher Education

The global pandemic has accelerated a trend that’s been happening for many years in higher education.

More schools are closing their doors each year because they can’t meet enrollment numbers. At the same time, colleges and universities are spending over $85 billion on software technology tools…they need this technology working better for them in order to overcome the outreach and enrollment challenges they’re facing.

Today’s prospective students engage with content at a rate that most schools can’t keep up with. That’s why HubSpot built a CRM and marketing platform totally different than others on the market.

Most institutions still operate under two outdated realities:

  1. A linear prospective student journey
  2. A highly-siloed handoff between marketing teams and enrollment managers

But the reality is that your prospective student experience is anything but linear, right?

Marketing Ideas for Attorneys, From an Attorney!

Several years ago I started an LLC in New York State, where new businesses are required to announce themselves in a newspaper for 6 weeks. A print paper. I stuck my head in the sand for a month, then started Googling how to get it done: which newspapers were acceptable, how much it would cost, etc.

Not only was the information hard to find, it turns out that in NYC this is an especially stupid and expensive process. A rude Kings County clerk told me I needed to go downtown for the details, because he’s not allowed to provide them over the phone or through email (“I don’t make the laws, lady”).

Confused about what century I was living in, I went back to Google looking for ways to get out of the publishing obligation. Surely this was just a silly technicality that wouldn’t really affect my business, right?
