May 14, 2021 Fanatical Fridays Episode 34: How to Advertise on YouTube: 3 Tips for Higher Ed Marketers
A recent Pew Research Center report pegged YouTube as the most popular and fastest-growing social media platform, reaching 81% of US adults in 2021 — up from 73% in 2019. And Gen-Z? 90% of them watch one or more videos on the platform every month!

But, enrollment professionals have struggled to effectively use YouTube for student recruitment — and it's time that changes.

On this week's episode of Fanatical Fridays, Zach offers a crash course on YouTube advertising for enrollment marketers. Tune in to the show to generate ideas and insight into how to leverage different ad formats and audience types to increase your school or program's brand awareness.

May 06, 2021 Episode 86: How Higher Ed Marketers Should Be Telling Stories to Increase Enrollment
Everyone talks about the importance of storytelling in marketing...and a lot of folks in higher ed think they are good storytellers, but what are the mechanics and frameworks that separate the best storytellers from the rest of the pack?

On this week's episode, Zach is joined by Kerry Morrison, Chief Storytelling Officer at Goodkind — an education technology company focused on storytelling through personalized, one-to-one video.

Zach and Kerry discuss how to rethink the student recruitment process and make it more sustainable (just because you need to increase enrollment by 10% doesn't mean you must buy another 10,000 names for your search campaigns).

Tune in for a thought-provoking and timely conversation about the future of personalized communications in higher ed.

According to Enrollify subscribers, it's "because we aren't sure how to get started." Well, buckle up folks because on this week's episode, Zach shares detailed insight into why enrollment marketers should up their TikTok game today, and tangible ideas for how they can do so.

Watch this video to understand the various advertising options available on the platform, which colleges and universities are currently slaying their TikTok game, and what investment your school should be ready to make when starting out.

Joseph dives into the following questions:

Where should enrollment marketers spend time “building clout” online right now? Are there specific networks or channels you believe enrollment managers and higher ed marketers should be focused on right now?
If you were building a university’s marketing and admissions team from the ground up today, what kind of skills would you look for in an enrollment marketer? What kind of talent would you hire and why?
