Disclaimer: We hate PowerPoint, but less than we hate downloadable  PDFs  We have tried to make this as short and sweet as possible No animals, children or tech were harmed during the creation of this presentation  Social Media Campaign for Central London Colleges
What the lovely clients wanted? ,[object Object]
To position themselves as a forward thinking college and differentiate from other FE institutes
Make the college accessible, personable and more attractive to perspective students and parents
But most of all ….To raise enrolment ,[object Object]
How did we help them? What we did ,[object Object]
Activity, tone, language, interests, conversation pieces
What do students like?
What do parents like?,[object Object]
Not Cool  We had to be ‘down with the kids’
But smart enough for parents to trust us! (cool parents)
The students had stories to tell…
They didn’t know this, but their students are little social media monsters.  They had stories to tell, images to share, and were the best ‘brand ambassadors’ any one could wish for. We showed the college how to use these keen social monsters, trained them and got them to share their experiences.
What Strictly Social did….. We build their twitter account, shared interesting stories, found students, parents and teachers online. Built a Facebook page, a space where they share news, info, updates and the students ask questions, talk about upcoming events and more… Their blog is a space where students write stories, share their experiences with the college, teachers share examples of best practise and thoughts on education. This has become the central ‘hub’ of their community.  Used the video content created by students and shared them on YouTube
The Results? (drum roll please)
