The unique value of LinkedIn is that
it’s more than just an awareness
building channel. We’re not just
sharing content freely; we’re able to
translate it into lead generation. And
the targeted audience for our content
means that we’re seeing a much
stronger Return on Investment than
we ever received from pay-per-click
search advertising.

The crux of effective marketing is twofold —
the ability to develop incisive messaging
based on consumer insight, and finding the
right communication channel to present
this messaging to the consumer at the right
time and in the right context. The success of
our campaign on LinkedIn is a culmination of
these two aspects coming together well.

One of the extraordinary things about
our InMail campaign is that we have two
students starting in August who had
never heard of this program before they
received our InMail in March. In the history
of my marketing experience at this school,
I’ve never seen us convert that quickly.
