Join Jaime on this captivating episode of "Confessions of a Higher Ed CMO," with guest Denise Lamphier, director of marketing and communications at Des Moines University. In this episode, explore a unique four-year project undertaken by Denise and her son to document the college selection process. Denise shares statistics and data gathered by tracking every piece of college marketing her son received from the time he was a freshman until he matriculated four years later. 

Takeaways include:

• Fascinating trends that emerged over the four years and how the volume and nature of the materials shifted and evolved across his search
• Valuable perspectives into how a high school student evaluates marketing communications – and how those materials guided his search
• Insights into what pieces didn’t land – and why
• A true understanding of the highly competitive nature of higher ed marketing – and ideas for how to stand out in the crowd
