Does Inbound Marketing Work in Education? 

The way students find schools, research them, and ultimately decide which school to attend has changed dramatically. Rather than waiting for a brochure to arrive in the mail, students seek information on the internet. And, this is where inbound marketing comes in. The inbound marketing methodology lets you attract strangers to your website and eventually turn them into your best fans.

 

Inbound marketing helps you speak to your targeted students about the topics they find interesting. According to HubSpot, schools that use inbound marketing are seven times more likely to report a higher ROI than schools using traditional marketing. And inbound related applicants are three times more qualified than leads acquired through conventional methods.
